Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

IGF1, serum glucose, and retinopathy of prematurity in extremely preterm infants

JCI Insight, 2020
BACKGROUND Hyperglycemia, insulin insensitivity, and low IGF1 levels in extremely preterm infants are associated with an increased risk of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), but the interactions are incompletely understood.METHODS In 117 extremely preterm

The effects of D-penicillamine on a murine model of oxygen-induced retinopathy [PDF]

Journal of American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus, 2010
To determine the effect of intraperitoneal and intravitreal D-penicillamine (DPA) on retinal neovascularization in a murine model of oxygen-induced retinopathy.On postnatal day 7, 16 mice were injected intraperitoneally with 300 mg/kg/day DPA for 3 days followed by 50 mg/kg/day for 7 days.

Functional Bread From Bambara Groundnut and Orange Peel Attenuates Hyperglycemia and Oxidative Stress in a High‐Fat Diet/Streptozotocin‐Induced Type 2 Diabetes Rat Model

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
This study evaluated Bambara groundnut–wheat composite bread fortified with orange peel in diabetic rats. Diets significantly lowered blood glucose, inhibited α‐glucosidase and α‐amylase, and boosted antioxidant enzymes compared to controls. Results emphasize BG‐based functional foods' potential to help manage type 2 diabetes through regulation of ...

Recent Perspectives on Phytochemical Profile, Pharmacological Activities, and Industrial Applications of Guava (Psidium guajava)

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Psidium guajava leaves contain potent bioactive compounds like quercetin, myricetin, and triterpenoids that show antioxidant, antidiabetic, anti‐inflammatory, and anticancer effects. They act by modulating NF‐κB, PPARγ, and α‐glucosidase and by inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest.

Arginase 2 deficiency prevents oxidative stress and limits hyperoxia-induced retinal vascular degeneration. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Hyperoxia exposure of premature infants causes obliteration of the immature retinal microvessels, leading to a condition of proliferative vitreoretinal neovascularization termed retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).

Berberine alleviates pyroptosis of retinal ganglion cells in diabetic retinopathy by regulating AKT1, JUN, and STAT3

Ibrain, EarlyView.
Berberine alleviates diabetic retinopathy by reducing pyroptosis through AKT1/JUN/STAT3 regulation, as validated in rat models via network pharmacology, molecular docking, and experimental assays. Abstract Berberine (BBR) exerts an effective protection for diabetic retinopathy (DR), but the underlying key molecular mechanism remains unknown; this study
