C3G and Ig-MPGN-treatment standard
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37604793/
Among the broad spectrum of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN), immunofluorescence distinguishes C3 glomerulopathy (C3G), with predominant C3 deposits, and immunoglobulin-associated MPGN (Ig-MPGN), with combined C3 and Ig. However, there are several...
Accurate diagnosis and targeted therapies for primary C3G and Ig-MPGN may improve outcomes through unsupervised clustering analysis and ongoing complement cascade-targeting trials.

Traditional and novel non-statin lipid-lowering drugs
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37979722/
Non-statin drugs find utility in the management of dyslipidaemia in mixed dyslipidaemia, patients with statin intolerance, and when guidelines directed low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) target cannot be achieved despite maximally...
Non-statin drugs are crucial for managing dyslipidaemia in specific patient groups, especially when LDL-C targets are unachievable with statins alone or in cases of statin intolerance.

Effects of Dietary Carbohydrate Concentration and Glycemic Index on Blood Glucose Variability and Free Fatty Acids in Individuals with Type 1 Diabetes
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38732629/
Monitoring glycemic control status is the cornerstone of diabetes management. This study aimed to reveal whether moderate-carbohydrate (CHO) diets increase the risk of free fatty acid (FFA) levels, and it...
In type 1 diabetes, moderate-carbohydrate diets, regardless of glycemic index, did not significantly impact glycemic control but increased free fatty acid and triglyceride levels, potentially elevating cardiovascular risk.

Modulating the Gut Microbiota and Metabolites with Traditional Chinese Medicines: An Emerging Therapy for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Its Complications
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38930814/
Currently, an estimated 537 million individuals are affected by type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), the occurrence of which is invariably associated with complications. Glucose-lowering therapy remains the main treatment for...
Traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) modulate gut microbiota, restoring host homeostasis and ameliorating metabolic disorders, offering a promising approach for managing type 2 diabetes mellitus and its complications with fewer adverse effects.

Comparing the Efficacy of Digital and In-Person Weight Loss Interventions for Patients with Obesity and Glycemic Disorders: Evidence from a Randomized Non-Inferiority Trial
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38794747/
Digital weight loss interventions present a viable and cost-effective alternative to traditional therapy. However, further evidence is needed to establish the equal effectiveness of both approaches. This randomized controlled non-inferiority...
Vitadio digital therapy is an effective alternative to traditional in-person weight loss programs, demonstrating comparable weight reduction, improved body composition, lipid metabolism, and glycemic control in patients with obesity.
