Summary: This study aimed to characterize continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) metrics over 24 hours in women with gestational diabetes (GDM) and the moderating effect of treatment strategy. The results showed significant variability in glucose levels throughout the day, with the highest variability in the morning. Additionally, individuals assigned to diet+metformin had greater difficulty managing glycemia, and increased dietary protein intake may assist with the management of dysglycemia.

Summary: The study investigated the effect of PTE on intestinal glucose absorption and pyroptosis in HISE-treated mice. The results showed that PTE attenuated HISE-induced intestinal glucose absorption dysfunction and pyroptosis. Moreover, PTE inhibited NLRP3 inflammasome and mitochondrial homeostasis in intestinal epithelial cells.

Summary: This study examined the impact of an Individualised Activity Program (IAP) on cardiovascular, mitochondrial, and fatigue parameters in chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) patients. The results showed that IAP significantly reduced fatigue and improved functional performance, but caution is needed as exercise was not well tolerated by 51% of patients.

Summary: The study evaluated the impact of aerobic training on autonomic, cardiometabolic, ubiquitin-proteasome activity, and inflammatory changes in ovariectomized rats with myocardial infarction. Aerobic training improved physical capacity, increased interleukin-10, and decreased pro-inflammatory cytokines. Metabolomic analysis revealed distinct metabolic profiles among different groups, with aerobic training group showing prevention of certain metabolic responses.

Summary: This study evaluated the impact of pulmonary rehabilitation on heart rate recovery (HRR) in individuals with asthma compared to those with COPD. The findings showed that individuals with asthma had a lower prevalence of slow HRR than those with COPD. However, exercise training significantly improved exercise capacity in both populations.

Summary: This article explores the role of the central nervous system in glucose homeostasis and presents an integrative model in which the CNS, together with the islet, regulates blood glucose levels. The article emphasizes the importance of this model in understanding both normal glucose homeostasis and the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes, and highlights centrally targeted therapeutic approaches.

Summary: This study aims to investigate whether a single bout of mixed circuit training can induce a reduction in blood pressure in chronic hemiparetic stroke patients. The results show that a single bout of mixed circuit training can elicit prolonged post-exercise hypotension in these patients, accompanied by increased sympathovagal balance and lowered systemic vascular resistance.

Summary: This study aimed to identify the lowest concentration at which the properties of trehalose could be exploited. The results showed no differences in exercise performance in the later stages between the groups with concentrations of 8%, 6%, and 4% trehalose solution. Trehalose could be a useful option for making a new type of mixed carbohydrate solution.

Summary: This study found a negative correlation between movements and paralinguistic sounds during endoscopy and the satisfaction of the examiner measured with the CSSI. Additionally, the EMG of facial muscles can identify such events and potentially predict their occurrence.

Summary: The study found that subjective GWI symptom severity scores were related to objective measures of autonomic nervous system activity. Higher PNS activity was associated with lower symptom severity, while higher SNS activity was associated with higher symptom severity.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the differences in heart rate variability (HRV) and salivary parameters between people with Fibromyalgia (FM) and healthy controls. The results showed significant differences in HRV and salivary biomarkers between the two groups. While people with FM did not significantly react to exercise in terms of HRV, significant differences were observed in the HRV of healthy controls after exercise.
