Immunomodulatory Peptide LW‐9 Enhances Doxorubicin Efficacy by Downregulating PD‐L1 and Promoting Intratumoral T‐Cell Responses in Murine Breast Cancer

open access: yesImmunology, EarlyView.
LW‐9, a peptide derived from Phoneutria nigriventer venom, enhances antitumor immunity in a murine breast cancer model by remodelling the tumour microenvironment. Treatment reduces PD‐L1 expression while increasing CD3+ and GITR+ T‐cell infiltration, resulting in delayed tumour progression, particularly when combined with doxorubicin.

Glycated albumin: An old yet new biomarker in people with diabetes and the potential for novel applications

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glycated albumin (GA), the product of nonenzymatic glycation of serum albumin, reflects the mean glucose levels over the preceding approximately 2 weeks, bridging the gap between daily self‐monitoring of blood glucose and the roughly 3‐month window covered by glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) measurement.

The DOAC‐FRAIL Study—Same Dose, Different Story: Prevalence of Deviant Direct Oral Anticoagulant Levels in Nursing Home Residents

open access: yesJournal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are prescribed using fixed dosing regimens, despite limited evidence on their pharmacokinetic behavior in nursing home residents. Participants and Setting One hundred nursing home residents are receiving apixaban, rivaroxaban, dabigatran, or edoxaban in multiple long‐term care facilities in the ...

The Mean and Variability of Morning Hour Activity Over 2–3 Days Predict 5‐Year Mortality and Frailty Risk in a National Sample of Older Adults

open access: yesJournal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Activity pattern features measured by continuous accelerometry are strongly associated with frailty, making accelerometry a promising, scalable screening tool for frailty. However, adherence to typical 5–7 day wear protocols decreases with age, reducing feasibility.

Frailty in Adults With Down Syndrome: Cognitive, Functional and Biomarker Associations

open access: yesJournal of Intellectual Disability Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Down syndrome (DS) entails widespread age‐related functional decline affecting multiple organ systems, including genetically determined early‐onset Alzheimer disease (DSAD), resulting in an increased vulnerability to frailty early in life.

European Consortium for Lipodystrophies consensus definition and classification framework for monogenic lipodystrophy

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Lipodystrophy comprises a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by reduced adipose tissue often associated with severe metabolic complications. Lipodystrophy may be genetic, acquired, or secondary to medical therapies initiated for other conditions.

Association Among Eating Speed, Dietary Diversity, and Fat‐Free Mass Index in Adults

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This study examined the associations among body composition indices, eating speed, and dietary diversity. Dietary diversity was positively associated with muscle mass in men and negatively associated with body fat mass index in women, while fast eating was significantly associated with fat‐free mass index.

Masticatory Performance and its Relationship With Sarcopenia, Frailty and Functional Outcomes in Hospitalized Older Adults: A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
In 217 patients aged ≥ 70 years admitted to geriatric rehabilitation, poor oral function assessed by masticatory performance was common and often occurred without sarcopenia or frailty. Its independent association with functional outcomes suggests that pragmatic bedside assessment of masticatory performance adds value to routine geriatric assessment in
