We developed an animal model of early diabetic retinopathy (DR) in the tree shrew by feeding a high‐fat and high‐sugar diet in combination with STZ. Physiological and biochemical index detection, hematoxylin and eosin staining, and transmission electron microscopy were performed to examine DR.

Metabolic and biochemical profiling reveals phenotypic heterogeneity in Zucker diabetic fatty rats
Genetically uniform Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rats spontaneously develop four distinct metabolic phenotypes despite identical housing and diet conditions. Each phenotype exhibits unique biomarker signatures encompassing glucose homeostasis, insulin secretion, polyol pathway activation, oxidative stress, inflammatory cytokines, and neurotrophic ...

Homocysteine, MTHFR C677T gene polymorphism, folic acid and vitamin B 12 in patients with retinal vein occlusion [PDF]
Background Many available data have suggested that hyperhomocysteinaemia, an established independent risk factor for thrombosis (arterial and venous), may be associated with an increased risk of retinal vein occlusion (RVO).

Factors Associated with Goal Achievement in Patients with Dyslipidemia in Primary Care
Introduction: Dyslipidemia promotes atherosclerotic disease. A strategy to reduce this risk is to achieve low-density lipoprotein (LDL) goals; however, these are often not attained.

The Clinical Spectrum and Neurodevelopmental Pathogenesis of KPTN‐Related Disorder in a Mouse Model
Objective Pathogenic variants in Kaptin (KPTN) cause KPTN‐related disorder (KRD). KPTN modulates mTOR signaling activation within the KICSTOR complex in response to cellular amino acid levels. We define the clinical spectrum and investigate the developmental pathogenesis of KRD.

Are Statins Anti-Inflammatory? [PDF]
Large scale clinical trials demonstrate significant reductions in cardiovascular event rates with statin therapy. The observed benefit of statin therapy, however, may be larger in these trials than that expected on the basis of lipid lowering alone ...

Clot Composition Profiling in Large Vessel Occlusion Stroke Via Radiomics
Objective Clot composition may offer insights into the mechanism of ischemic stroke. Radiomics, a noninvasive imaging technique, enables tissue characterization through radiomic features (RFs). We aimed to evaluate clot composition using radiomics on non‐contrast computed tomography (NCCT).
