TL;DR: Results indicates that PDX can prevent and treat obesity in HFD-fed mice, specifically in alleviating glucolipid metabolism disorders and adipose tissue inflammation, which may be mediated by modulating the structure of the gut microbiota.

TL;DR: Serum GGT levels were significantly associated with incident diabetes or combined diabetes and IGR prospectively and a high serum GGT level at baseline was independently associated with an increase in the index of homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) at follow-up.

TL;DR: BIPSS was a useful way to diagnosis Cushing's disease and suggested the exact location of a pituitary adenoma to Neurosurgery and should be a required test for cases of CD that cannot be definitively diagnosed with just an MRI and 8 mg DST before surgery.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the potential dose-response relationship between FGF21 and liver fat content in NAFLD patients by using restricted cubic spline regression, and found that changes in serum fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) levels were strongly associated with their corresponding relative IHTG loss at both month 12 and follow-up.

TL;DR: LncRNA and mRNA expression profiles of B cells from patients with Graves’ disease indicated that the lncRNA–mRNA pairs n335641–TCL1A, TCONS_00022357-XLOC_010919-TCL 1A, and n337845–SH2D1A may participate in GD pathogenesis by modulating B-cell proliferation and survival.
