Vascular effects of glibenclamide vs. glimepiride and metformin in Type 2 diabetic patients

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that, in contrast to glibenclamide, chronic treatment of Type 2 diabetic patients with glimepiride or metformin will not impair the vasodilator function of KATP opening in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Moderate correlation between systemic IL‐6 responses and CRP with trough concentrations of voriconazole

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that inflammation has an impact on VCZ pharmacokinetics, and the correlation between VCZ trough concentrations and various cytokines is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Frontline Science: Endotoxin-induced immunotolerance is associated with loss of monocyte metabolic plasticity and reduction of oxidative burst

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that immunotolerant monocytes are characterized by a loss of metabolic plasticity and these metabolic defects impact antimicrobial monocyte immune functions, and support that the changed cellular metabolism of immunot tolerant monocytes might reveal novel therapeutic targets to reverse sepsis‐induced immunoparalysis.

TL;DR: The results indicate increased metabolism of energy substrates in muscle tissue in experimental sepsis and do not indicate presence of energy depletion or mitochondrial dysfunction in muscle and should similar physiologic situation be present in other tissues, other mechanisms of organ failure must be considered.
