Narcolepsy and rapid eye movement sleep
Summary Since the first description of narcolepsy at the end of the 19th Century, great progress has been made. The disease is nowadays distinguished as narcolepsy type 1 and type 2. In the 1960s, the discovery of rapid eye movement sleep at sleep onset led to improved understanding of core sleep‐related disease symptoms of the disease (excessive ...

ABSTRACT This pilot observational study evaluated whether frequent overnight sampling of ventricular cerebrospinal fluid could clarify how sleep, hypocretin and lactate relate to amyloid‐β42 dynamics in adults with hydrocephalus. Seven participants underwent hourly ventricular cerebrospinal fluid sampling from early evening to late morning during ...

COVID‐19–Induced Narcolepsy Type I With Cataplexy: A Short Report
ABSTRACT Narcolepsy type I is a rare neurological sleep disorder characterised by chronic excessive daytime sleepiness, cataplexy, and low orexin (hypocretin) levels. Infection with SARS‐CoV‐2 has been linked to neurological and neuropsychiatric sequelae, but cases of post‐COVID narcolepsy remain extremely uncommon.

Improved Glucagon Sensitivity Following Weight Loss: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
ABSTRACT Objective This systematic review and meta‐analysis investigated the effect of weight loss in people with obesity on two biomarkers of glucagon resistance: fasting plasma glucagon and alanine. Methods A comprehensive search was conducted in Medline and Embase. Random‐effects meta‐analyses and correlation analyses were performed.

Abstract Abscisic acid (ABA) is a key phytohormone in plant responses to water deficit. Although there is extensive evidence that roots can synthesise ABA, recent findings suggest that local synthesis in response to dehydration contributes little to the root ABA pool compared to shoot‐sourced ABA.

The left panel reports the measured time course data of melatonin concentration in the blood plasma of 17 BL‐Rs and 15 BL‐NRs at baseline, during a two‐hour stay in the dark, during a one‐hour light exposure to blue light, and again in the dark. The right panel shows the magnitude of melatonin concentration after 60 min of exposure to warm white, cool ...

The Effect of Lipemia on Insulin and Adiponectin Measurement in Equine Blood Samples
ABSTRACT Background Lipemia is a common comorbidity in horses with obesity or equine metabolic syndrome, but the impact of lipemia on the measurement of insulin and adiponectin has not been evaluated. Objective To evaluate endogenous and exogenous lipemic interference with equine insulin and adiponectin measurements via several commercial assays ...

Endocrine and androgenic response to altitude training in professional cyclists
Abstract figure legend Steroidal and endocrine variables are altered during altitude training. Abstract This study investigated endocrine and steroidal blood markers in 31 male elite cyclists monitored over 7 weeks, including a 3 week altitude training camp either at 2050 m (n = 19) or 3000 m (n = 12).

ABSTRACT In the year 2000 the first once daily long‐acting bioengineered insulin analogue (LAIA), insulin glargine (‘glargine’), a true basal insulin (BI), became available for clinical use. This led to the decline in the 50‐year‐old era and prominence of the intermediate‐acting insulins, neutral protamine Hagedorn (NPH) and lente, requiring twice ...

Postprandial Glucagon Action in the Human Brain
ABSTRACT Aims Elevated fasting glucagon is linked to hyperglycemia, but postprandial glucagon effects are less understood. Recent evidence suggests metabolic benefits of rising glucagon after oral glucose intake, potentially impacting brain‐mediated whole‐body metabolism.
