Early and strong leptin reduction is predictive for long-term weight loss during high-protein, low-glycaemic meal replacement: a subanalysis of the randomised-controlled ACOORH tri... by Kempf, Kerstin, Röhling, Martin, Banzer, Winfried, Braumann, Klaus-Michael, Halle, Martin, Schaller, Nina, McCarthy, H. David, Predel, Hans Georg, Schenkenberger, Isabelle, Tan, Susanne, Toplak, Hermann, Martin, Stephan, Berg, Aloys

“…Stronger leptin reduction has been observed in the intervention compared to the control group with the lowest levels after 1 month of intervention (estimated treatment difference -3.4 µg/L [1.4; 5.4] for females; -2.2 µg/L [1.2; 3.3] for males; < 0.001 each) and was predictive for stronger reduction of body weight and fat mass ( < 0.001 each) over 12 months. …”

Words and facts: children's fast mapping, retention and extension by Holland, Amanda

“…Fast mapping describes the cognitive skill of mapping new information onto its appropriate referent, from minimal exposure. It has been researched primarily in the field of word learning and evidence suggests that a pre-school child can link a novel word with its referent and retain this link up to 1 month later (e.g. …”

An epigenetic locus associated with loss of smell in COVID-19 by Aslan, Elif Sibel, White, Kenneth, Meral, Gulsen, Akcay, Zeyneb Nur, Altundag, Aytug, Gur, Savas, Dokur, Mehmet, Baktir, Mehmet Akif, Batur, Lutfiye Karcioglu

“…However, the role of epigenetic changes in the development and persistence of smell loss has not been well explored. In this study, we aimed to investigate epigenetic alterations in the form of DNA methylation in the UGT1A1 gene, which is a locus associated with olfactory dysfunction in COVID-19 patients. …”

A comparison of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor kidney outcome trial participants with a real-world chronic kidney disease primary care population by Forbes, AK, Hinton, W, Feher, MD, Elson, W, Ordóñez-Mena, JM, Joy, M, Fan, X, Banerjee, D, Cole, NI, Munro, N, Whyte, M, Suckling, RJ, Swift, PA, de Lusignan, S

“…However, there are limited data on the generalizability to those without co-existing type 2 diabetes (T2D), and the representativeness of the Study of Heart and Kidney Protection with Empagliflozin (EMPA-KIDNEY) trial has not been adequately explored. We hypothesized that SGLT2 inhibitor kidney outcome trials are more representative of people with co-existing T2D than those without, and that EMPA-KIDNEY is more representative than previous trials.…”

Investigating the functional and metabolic role of carnitine in the diabetic heart using hyperpolarized MRI by Savic, D

“…L-carnitine levels are decreased in the plasma of diabetic patients and L-carnitine supplementation has been shown to have protective effects. L-carnitine transports fatty acids into the mitochondria allowing for subsequent —-oxidation, but it can also export acetyl-CoA from the mitochondria through acetylcarnitine and thereby relieve PDH-flux.…”
