Twin pregnancies and the limits of the energetics of gestation and growth hypothesis

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The “Energetics of Gestation and Growth” (EGG) hypothesis proposes that human birth timing and the associated secondary altriciality of human newborns is determined by limits in maternal metabolic capacity. According to this model, labor is triggered when the increasing fetal energy requirements exceed the expectant mother's maximum sustained ...

Beyond Gut Modulation: A Critical Review of the Therapeutic Potential, Safety, and Clinical Prospects of Natural Polysaccharides for IBD

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
In this review, we critically summarized the application of natural polysaccharides (NPs) for the treatment of IBD. This approach combines, in a unique way (right), the basic structure–activity relationships of NPs from different origins (left) with their multipronged mode of action, which involves modulation of the gut microbiota and other ...

Plasma Very‐Long‐Chain Fatty Acids in X‐Linked Adrenoleukodystrophy: Diagnostic Insights From a Clinical Laboratory Cohort

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Plasma VLCFA levels are increased in symptomatic X‐linked adrenoleukodystrophy, particularly in patients with cerebral involvement. However, they do not reliably predict disease progression or longitudinal changes. These findings support their diagnostic value while highlighting the need for more robust prognostic biomarkers in clinical practice ...
