Association between Perceived Dysphagia Symptoms and Swallowing Physiology in Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Swallowing disorders are prevalent in Parkinson's disease (PD). Swallowing assessment often relies on patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs). Although PROMs and physiologic swallowing measures correlate with disease severity, the relationship between PROMs and physiologic swallowing impairments is unclear.

Breaking Boundaries: Chronic Diseases and the Frontiers of Immune Microenvironments

Med Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The immune microenvironment includes immune cells, cytokines, extracellular matrix, vesicles, etc. The interactions between these components form a unique local immune microecology. Although immunity serves as the defense against external pathogens, aberrant immune activation often contributes to disease development.

Comparative Proteomics of Salinity Stress Responses in Fish and Aquatic Invertebrates

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fluctuating salinity is symptomatic of climate change challenging aquatic species. The melting of polar ice, rising sea levels, coastal surface and groundwater salinization, and increased evaporation in arid habitats alter salinity worldwide. Moreover, the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events such as rainstorms and floods increase,

The Role of Magnesium in Liver Cirrhosis

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
Magnesium is a vital mineral involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions, crucial for physiological functions. Its deficiency, common in liver cirrhosis patients, correlates with poor outcomes by affecting inflammation, oxidative stress, fibrosis, and immunity. This review explores magnesium's role in cirrhosis and its interaction with disease mechanisms.

Formation of a β‐Endorphin Corona Mitigates Alzheimer's Amyloidogenesis

Small, EarlyView.
This study revealed the molecular mechanism of exercise‐induced β‐endorphin in suppressing the toxicity of Alzheimer's Aβ in vitro, in vivo and in silico. Abstract Senile plaques, comprised of nanosized aggregates of amyloid‐β (Aβ) peptides in the brain, are a pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Semaglutide to remodel mitochondrial dynamics and mitophagy balance for vascular dementia therapy

VIEW, EarlyView.
The effects of semaglutide on IR, mitochondrial dynamics, and mitophagy in the hippocampus of BCAS mice after CCH. It was shown that semaglutide maintained the balance of mitochondrial dynamics and mitophagy by improving IR and passing through GLP‐1R/PI3K/Akt pathway, reduced hippocampal neuroinflammation and neuron loss, and thus promoted the recovery

Acquired narcolepsy secondary to a presumptive hypothalamic hamartoma in a young German wirehaired pointer dog

Veterinary Record Case Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract A 3‐year‐old, male, entire, German wirehaired pointer dog was presented with a 2‐year history of paroxysmal episodes of collapse associated with reduced levels of consciousness. A magnetic resonance imaging study identified a single, ill‐defined, non‐contrast‐enhancing, intra‐axial mass lesion involving the hypothalamus.
