Reconceptualizing Dyslipidemia: Diversity of Lipid Imbalances and Their Clinical Implications; A Narrative Review

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims The traditional definition of dyslipidemia focuses on isolated lipid changes (LDL‐C, HDL‐C, triglycerides) and may not fully capture the biological complexity or clinical variability of lipid imbalances. Recent evidence challenges this narrow view, suggesting that dyslipidemia involves broader disruptions in lipid ...

Barbaloin Attenuates Cisplatin‐Induced Hippocampal Neurotoxicity by Suppressing Oxidative Stress, Neuroinflammation, and Apoptosis: In Vivo and In Silico Evidence

Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology, Volume 40, Issue 8, August 2026.
Important Aloe vera phytonutrient, barbaloin, inhibits the neurotoxic effects of cisplatin on hippocampus, which involves reducing oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, and apoptosis, thereby restoring the balance of neurotransmitters and cognition. The generated docking structures with 100‐ns molecular dynamics simulations show stable energy‐minimized ...

Six‐ and Twelve‐Month Changes in Body Composition and 24‐h Energy Expenditure After a Very Low‐Calorie Ketogenic Diet

Obesity, Volume 34, Issue 8, Page 1558-1568, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective This study assessed changes in body composition and 24‐h energy metabolism at 6 and 12 months after initiation of a 1‐month very low‐calorie ketogenic diet (VLCKD) in women with obesity. Methods Seventeen women with obesity who completed a 1‐month VLCKD underwent a 4‐week transition phase with carbohydrate reintroduction, followed by

Effects of Coffee Decaffeination on Beverage Bioactives, Antioxidant Activity, and Lipid Metabolism in Hyperlipidemic Rats

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of chemical decaffeination on two coffee species (Coffea arabica and Coffea canephora) in terms of the chemical composition of filtered coffee beverages and their influence on lipid profile and oxidative stress in rats with diet‐induced hyperlipidemia. Rats (n = 30) were divided into six groups:

Apiotrichum‐Centered Fungal Interaction Network Disturbance Correlates With Increased Arterial Stiffness

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 8, August 2026.
Apiotrichum‐centered gut fungal network disturbance correlates with increased arterial stiffness. Five driver genera including Apiotrichum, Mycothermus, Flavocillium, Hyaloscypha, and Microscypha regulate the interaction shift. Thirty‐nine metabolites comprising organic acids, fatty acyls, and sucrose target vasoconstriction regulators CYP11B2, ROCK2 ...

Vine tea flavonoids alleviate high-fat diet-induced hyperlipidaemia in rats

Food and Agricultural Immunology
This study evaluated the hypolipidemic effect of vine tea flavonoids (AGF) in high-fat diet-fed rats. Animals received low-, medium-, or high-dose AGF (50, 100, or 200 mg/kg BW) for seven weeks, with Xuezhikang (60 mg/kg BW) as a positive control.
