When patients were grouped into 4 categories according to baseline serum sodium and SUN median values, those with both low baseline serum sodium (≤121 mEq/L) and low baseline SUN concentrations (≤10mg/dL) exhibited a significantly greater rate of increase in serum sodium concentration (mean 24-hour increase of 15.4 mEq/L) than the other 3 categories (P<0.05). Among patients with CHF, only baseline SUN concentration was identified as an independent predictor of change in serum sodium concentration over time. Hypothalamic hamartoma (HH) typically presents with gonadotrophin-dependent precocious puberty and/or seizures. Other endocrine disturbances are rare. We describe an infant with syndrome of inappropriate secretion of anti-diuretic hormone (SIADH) and a HH.When patients were grouped into 4 categories according to baseline serum sodium and SUN median values, those with both low baseline serum sodium (≤121 mEq/L) and low baseline SUN concentrations (≤10mg/dL) exhibited a significant...

Methods: C57BL/6 (WT) or CIRP-/- mice underwent renal injury with total blockage of blood perfusion by clamping bilateral renal pedicles for 28 min. In the WT mice at the time of reperfusion, they were treated with C23 (8 mg/kg) or vehicle. Blood and kidneys were harvested for further analysis at 21 days thereafter. In a separate cohort, mice underwent bilateral RIR and treatment with C23 or vehicle and were then subjected to left nephrectomy 72 h thereafter. Mice were then monitored for additional 19 days, and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was assessed using a noninvasive transcutaneous method Results: In the RIR-induced CKD, CIRP-/- mice showed decreased collagen deposition, fibronectin staining, and renal injury as compared to the WT mice. Administration of C23 ameliorated renal fibrosis by decreasing the expression of active TGF-β1, α-SMA, collagen deposition, fibronectin and macrophage infiltration to the kidneys. Furthermore, intervention with C23 significantly decreased ...

Physical exercise is a cornerstone for preventing diet-induced obesity, while it is unclear whether physical exercise could offset high-fat, high-calories diet (HFCD)-induced cardiac dysfunction. Here, mice were fed with HFCD and simultaneously subjected to physical exercise. As expected, physical exercise prevented HFCD-induced whole-body fat deposition. However, physical exercise exacerbated HFCD-induced cardiac damage. Further metabolomic analysis results showed that physical exercise induced circulating lipid redistribution, leading to excessive cardiac lipid uptake and lipotoxicity. Our study provides valuable insights into the cardiac effects of exercise in mice fed with HFCD, suggesting that counteracting the negative effect of HFCD by simultaneous physical exercise might be detrimental inappropriate physical exercise may damage certain organs even though it leads to weight loss and overall metabolic benefits. Of note, the current findings are based on animal experiments, ...

An important aspect of many chemical antibacterials is their breadth of action. This is a positive aspect because it can allow antibiotic application prior to determination of the antibiotic susceptibility of a pathogen. This property, however, is a double-edged sword, since non-target as well as target bacteria are impacted by such broad-spectrum antibiotics. The result can be dysbiosis, that is, a negative impact on important normal bacterial flora. One result of antibiotic usage consequently can be antibiotic-associated superinfections, such as vaginal yeast infections or Clostridium difficile-associated colitis. Most phages, by contrast, possess only narrow spectra of activity: Even when phages are mixed into cocktails, their overall activity spectrum remains relatively narrow. The result is a lower potential for side effects associated with dysbiosis, a phenomenon that does not appear to be a concern associated with phage therapy.
