Journal ArticleDOI
Rheumatoid arthritis: pathological mechanisms and modern pharmacologic therapies.
TL;DR: Current treatment strategies for rheumatoid arthritis are reviewed and how such insights could ultimately lead to the earlier diagnosis of RA - as well as providing new opportunities for drug treatment and prevention through behavioral changes in high-risk individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Initial treatment with a single pill containing quadruple combination of quarter doses of blood pressure medicines versus standard dose monotherapy in patients with hypertension (QUARTET): a phase 3, randomised, double-blind, active-controlled trial.

TL;DR: The QUARTET trial as discussed by the authors showed that a hypertension management strategy starting with a single pill containing ultra-low-dose quadruple combination therapy would be more effective than a strategy of starting with monotherapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Review of Dietary Prevention of Human Papillomavirus-Related Infection of the Cervix and Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia
TL;DR: Although it appears that intake of specific nutrients, vitamins, and minerals may be good in CIN prevention, there is lack of evidence from controlled trial to confirm this, and health professionals shall focus on implementation of a balanced-diet prevention strategy at an early stage for cervical cancer prevention.
Journal ArticleDOI
Myopenia is associated with joint damage in rheumatoid arthritis: a cross-sectional study.
Jian-Zi Lin,Jin-Jian Liang,Jian-Da Ma,Qian-Hua Li,Ying-Qian Mo,Wan-Mei Cheng,Xiao-Ling He,Nan Li,Ming‐Hui Cao,Dan Xu,Lie Dai +10 more
TL;DR: Body composition (BC) has been more frequently recommended to be used instead of BMI for more accurate assessment and their associations with disease characteristics in rheumatoid arthritis patients are investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alcohol and glucose metabolism in skeletal muscles in the rat.
TL;DR: It is confirmed that ethanol infusion causes an acute insulin resistance, the rate of glucose infusion required to maintain euglycaemia (GIR) being decreased markedly by ethanol, suggesting that a defect in glycogen synthase activation may be responsible for the decrease in glycogens synthesis.
