Sex differences in allostatic load trajectories among midlife and older adults: Evidence from the China health and retirement longitudinal study. by Guannan Li, Gindo Tampubolon, Asri Maharani, Chenglin Tu

“…We aim to delineate the sex-specific age trajectories of AL among midlife and older adults in China and to interpret the contradiction between the female advantage in life expectancy and their disadvantage in health in later life from the perspective of physiological dysregulation. Using data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) conducted in 2011 and 2015, we included 3,836 male and 3,308 female Chinese adults aged 45 and older. …”

Pharmacokinetics of Anti-Epileptic Drugs and their Clinical Significance by Svein I. Johannessen

“…The serum concentration achieved and maintained following the administration of a fixed drug dosage is a direct consequence of the interactions of a wide variety of interrelated processes, including drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion, and the physiological status of the patient. These interrelationships are reviewed with specific reference to the major anti-epileptic drugs, phenobarbitone, phenytoin, sodium valproate, and carbamazepine, as well as a new first-line antiepileptic, oxcarbazepine. …”

Navigating the complex role of senescence in liver disease by Qiuting Li, Lin Wang, Yuanyuan Ji

“…Cellular senescence, an irreversible state of cell cycle arrest characterized by phenotypic changes and a specific secretory profile, plays a dual role in liver health and disease. Under physiological conditions, senescence aids organ repair and regeneration, but its accumulation due to aging or pathological stress significantly contributes to chronic liver diseases, including alcoholic liver disease, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis, liver fibrosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. …”
