This study elucidates the multi‐targeted mechanisms of Virgin Coconut Oil (CO) as a dietary intervention for ameliorating Diabetic Kidney Disease (DKD). High‐purity medium‐chain fatty acids (MCFAs, primarily octanoic acid [C8:0] and decanoic acid [C10:0]) in CO significantly remodel the gut microbiota by enriching short‐chain fatty acid (SCFA ...

Encephalopathy: Cause, Pathogenesis, and Treatment
Various encephalopathies (sepsis‐associated, hepatic, hypoxic–ischemic, diabetic, uremic, toxic) have incompletely elucidated pathogenesis, which severely restricts targeted therapy development. Small molecule drugs show unique multitarget potential but face toxicity, poor blood–brain barrier penetration and unclear specificity.
