Sirtuins and regulatory miRNAs as epigenetic determinants of empagliflozin-mediated recovery after acute myocardial infarction
CONCLUSION: Baseline levels of SIRT2, SIRT4, miR-182-5p, and miR-302a-3p were identified as predictors of ΔLVEF < 11% changes after 26-weeks of treatment, which suggests their potential for stratifying responders and non-responders to empagliflozin. The combined panel of these markers demonstrated the highest predictive accuracy, suggesting the epigenetic influence of SGLT2 inhibitors and the potential for…

A novel antituberculosis agent exhibits potent clinical efficacy and good safety profile: an open-label, randomized-controlled, multicenter, phase 2a trial
Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious disease that threatens human health worldwide. Combination chemotherapy is usually recommended for this disease. Recently, 2 nitroimidazole-based agents, namely, delamanid and pretomanid, have been approved by regulatory agencies. JDB0131 is a novel, structurally optimized third-generation nitroimidazole antituberculosis agent that incorporates the advantages of earlier compounds. This multicenter, prospective, randomized phase…

Comparing the surgical outcomes of femto laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) versus conventional phacoemulsification (CP) in nanophthalmic eyes
CONCLUSION: Both FLACS and CP are equally safe surgeries, causing significant improvement in postoperative visual acuity in nanophthalmic eyes. FLACS, however, had greater RCS reduction than CP and also required significantly lesser surgical time and lower CDE than CP. FLACS was also slightly more beneficial in protecting the endothelium in short eyes.

Effects of a slowly fermentable fiber mixture against the background of a high-protein diet on insulin sensitivity and metabolic health in individuals with overweight: a randomized, placebo-controlled trial
The gut microbiota ferments dietary fibers, producing short-chain fatty acids (SCFA). Enhanced SCFA production in the distal colon has been linked to improved cardiometabolic health. However, most fibers are fermented proximally, resulting in increased protein fermentation distally, producing metabolites putatively harmful to metabolic health. This 12-week randomized, placebo-controlled trial aimed to improve metabolic health through…

Efficacy and safety of cannabidiol oil in psoriasis: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial
CONCLUSION: Cannabidiol oil was well-tolerated; however, it did not result in a significant reduction in psoriasis severity. Temporary improvements in itch relief and sleep onset indicate that further research with higher doses and extended durations is warranted.
