Amino Acid Imbalance Is an Independent Factor for Mortality in Patients With Liver Cirrhosis

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Amino acid imbalance, reflected by a low branched‐chain amino acids (BCAA)‐to‐tyrosine ratio (BTR), independently predicts mortality in patients with cirrhosis. Both decreased serum BCAA and increased tyrosine levels are significant and independent prognostic markers.

Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists and muscle strength changes in older adults: Risks beyond muscle mass reductions

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP)/Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists are increasingly prescribed for the management of obesity and type 2 diabetes, yet research pertinent to their effects on muscle health is limited. Considering the central role of muscle strength as a sarcopenia component, this article summarizes emerging ...

Homo sapiens, industrialisation and the environmental mismatch hypothesis

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For the vast majority of the evolutionary history of Homo sapiens, a range of natural environments defined the parameters within which selection shaped human biology. Although human‐induced alterations to the terrestrial biosphere have been evident for over 10,000 years, the pace and scale of change has accelerated dramatically since the onset

Low Alanine Aminotransferase Blood Activity, a Biomarker of Sarcopenia and Frailty, is Associated With Worse Post‐Total Laryngectomy Clinical Outcomes. A Retrospective Analysis of 427 Patients

open access: yesClinical Otolaryngology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Sarcopenia and frailty status have been shown to be associated with cancer patients' survival. Low alanine aminotransferase (ALT) blood activity was previously shown to be associated with frailty and poor clinical outcomes in cancer patients. This association was not addressed in head and neck cancer patients.
