TL;DR: This review describes the literature published in the last few years concerning nutritional deficiencies after bariatric surgery as well as their etiology, incidence, treatment and prevention and gives special attention to adolescents, mainly girls at reproductive age who have a substantial risk of developing iron deficiency.

TL;DR: This review examines the recent findings regarding the role and mechanisms by which butyrate regulates intestinal metabolism and discusses how these findings could improve the treatment of several gastrointestinal disorders.

TL;DR: Netrin-1, a neuroimmune guidance cue, was secreted by macrophages in human and mouse atheroma, where it inactivated the migration of macrophage toward chemokines linked to their egress from plaques, establishing a causative role for negative regulators of leukocyte migration in chronic inflammation.

TL;DR: Although targeted deletion of SR-A and CD36 does not abrogate macrophage foam cell formation or substantially reduce atherosclerotic lesion area in Apoe−/− mice, loss of these pathways does reduce progression to more advanced necrotic lesions.

TL;DR: Results show that oral administration of sodium butyrate improves mucosa lesion and attenuates the inflammatory profile of intestinal mucosa, local draining lymph nodes and Peyer's patches of DSS-induced UC, and highlight the potential use ofbutyrate supplements as adjuvant in UC treatment.
