Temperature‐Controlled Radiofrequency for Severe Nasal Airway Obstruction: A Non‐Inferiority Comparison With Surgical Intervention

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Temperature‐controlled radiofrequency (TCRF), septoplasty (ST) with turbinate reduction, and functional rhinoplasty (FR) are treatment options for nasal airway obstruction (NAO) and nasal valve dysfunction (NVD), but no direct comparison of these procedures has been performed. Methods This prospective, open‐label, non‐inferiority (

Strategies for inducing diabetes in laboratory animals: Advances from chemical, surgical, immunologic, dietary, and genetic approaches

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the principal experimental approaches used to induce diabetes in animal models. Strategies include chemical agents (streptozotocin, alloxan, dithizone, gold thioglucose), dietary interventions (high‐fat and high‐sugar diets), surgical methods (total or partial pancreatectomy), genetic models (db/db, ob/ob, Goto‐Kakizaki [GK ...

Analysis of energy expenditure and behavioral characteristics in different mouse strains under normal and disease conditions

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Mouse metabolic and behavioral phenotypes are tightly linked to strain, age and disease state, with distinct dysregulation in each disease model, underscoring the need for standardized preclinical experimental conditions. Abstract Background Metabolic and behavioral traits in mice exhibit substantial variability across strains, ages, and disease states,

Sex Differences in the Association of Simultaneous Decline in Blood Pressure and Decline in Cognition during Aging

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Both high and declining blood pressure (BP) are associated with risk of cognitive decline in older adults, and women have higher rates of hypertension and faster cognitive decline in late‐life. In old age, the relationship between changes in BP and changes in cognition is complex, and although sex differences in cognitive function and decline

Diabetes and the Metabolic Syndrome as Drivers of Neurodegeneration: Convergent Mechanisms Linking Peripheral Neuropathy and Dementia

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
The metabolic syndrome, a state of progressive metabolic dysfunction, injures the peripheral and central nervous systems, promoting peripheral neuropathy (PN) and cognitive impairment (CI), respectively. We posit PN and CI are connected in the metabolic syndrome framework, built on the premise that neurons, whether in the peripheral or central nervous ...

Design Considerations for Polymer–Deep Eutectic Solvent Hybrid Systems for Transdermal Drug Delivery

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) act as tunable, green excipients that modulate polymer structure–property relationships to enhance drug solubility, skin permeation, stability, and controlled release. Through hydrogen‐bond interactions, DES–polymer hybrid systems enable improved transdermal performance, offering a rational, design‐driven platform for ...
