Diabetes Mellitus Diagnosis and Screening in Australian General Practice: A National Study by Mingyue Zheng, Carla De Oliveira Bernardo, Nigel Stocks, David Gonzalez-Chica

“…Overall, 7.5% (95% CI 7.3, 7.8) of adults had diabetes diagnosis, 0.7% (95% CI 0.6, 0.7) prediabetes, and 0.3% (95% CI 0.3, 0.3) unrecorded diabetes/prediabetes (elevated glucose levels without a recorded diagnosis). Patients with unrecorded diabetes/prediabetes had clinical characteristics similar to those with recorded diabetes, except for a lower prevalence of overweight/obesity (55.5% and 69.9%, respectively). …”

Non-targeted Metabolomic Analysis of Differences in the Composition of Different Rice Varieties for Baijiu Production by LIU Maoke, TIAN Xinhui, LIU Yao, TANG Yuming, QIN Jian, FENG Jun, LIU Chengyuan

“…A comparison between PXY and JKY yielded 326 differential metabolites (variable importance in projection (VIP) > 1 and P < 0.05), including the major components of Baijiu, such as lactic acid, ferulic acid and fumaric acid, as well as important substrates that supported brewing microorganism growth, such as melibiose, maltose, glucose and lactulose. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis of differential metabolites identified 16 significantly differential biological pathways (P < 0.05), of which 14 were assigned to metabolic functions, including those related to Baijiu brewing such as galactose metabolism, the biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids, fatty acid biosynthesis, and butanoate metabolism. …”

Alterations in Serum Adropin, Adiponectin, and Proinflammatory Cytokine Levels in OSAS by Hakan Celikhisar, Gulay Dasdemir Ilkhan

“…There were no statistically significant differences between the OSAS and control groups concerning total cholesterol, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and glucose levels. Adiponectin was lower in the OSAS group at a statistically significant level in comparison with the control group and was related at a statistically significant level to OSAS intensity. …”

Notoginsenoside Fc Accelerates Reendothelialization following Vascular Injury in Diabetic Rats by Promoting Endothelial Cell Autophagy by Jingjing Liu, Chunyu Jiang, Xu Ma, Lishuai Feng, Jianbo Wang

“…Our in vitro results also demonstrated that Fc promoted endothelial cell proliferation and migration under high-glucose treatment by increasing autophagy. In summary, this study supported the notion that Fc could accelerate reendothelialization following vascular injury in diabetic rats by promoting autophagy, suggesting that Fc may exert therapeutic benefits for early endothelial injury and restenosis following intervention in diabetes-associated vascular diseases.…”
