ecessary, not only to potentiate disease prevention strategies, but also to reduce costs related to lower levels of mental well-being in the non-mental illness population. Our results suggest that useful reductions in both health care resource use and costs, as well as in costs due to sick leave from the workplace, could be achieved from investment in mental well-being promotion within a year.Obesity can lead children and adolescents to an increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. A diet supplemented with Plantago psyllium has been shown to be effective in reducing LDL-C and IL-6 in adolescents. However, there are no studies that have explored small-dense LDL (sdLDL) or HDL subclasses. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of a fiber dietary intervention on LDL and HDL subclasses in adolescents with obesity. In this parallel, double blind, randomized clinical trial, the participants were assigned to Plantago psyllium or placebo (10g/day for 7 weeks). We randomized 113 participants, and evaluated and analyzed 100 adolescents (50 in each group), 15 to 19 years with a body mass index of 29-34. We measured biochemical markers LDL and HDL subclasses using the Lipoprint system (Quantimetrix) and IL-6 by ELISA. Post-treatment there was a decrease in sdLDL between the groups 2.0 (0-5.0) vs 1 (0-3.0) mg/dl (p = 0.004), IL-6 median 3.32 (1.24-5.96) vs 1.76 (0.54-3.28) pg/ml, p less then 0.0001. There were no differences in HDL subclasses and no adverse effects were reported in either group.Conclusions Small dense LDL and IL-6 reduced in adolescents with obesity when consuming Plantago psyllium. This may be an early good strategy for the reduction of cardiovascular disease risk in this vulnerable population.Trial registration ISRCTN # 14180431. Date assigned 24/08/2020 What is Known • Supplementing the diet with Plantago psyllium lowers LDL-C levels. What is New • First evidence that soluble fiber supplementation like Plantago psyllium decreases small dense LDL particles in association with lowered IL-6, reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease in obese adolescents.
Several studies have investigated the association between gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk, but the presented scientific results are highly debatable. This study examined the longitudinal association between GERD and CRC in an Asian population.

A retrospective cohort study was performed using the National Health Insurance Research Database of Taiwan. The study cohort comprised 45,828 individuals with newly diagnosed GERD (the GERD cohort) and 229,140 age, sex, and date of enrollment-matched patients without GERD (the comparison cohort) from 2000 to 2006. The primary outcome was the incidence of CRC. To estimate the effect of GERD on the risk of CRC, the Cox proportional hazards model was fitted to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).

There were 785 newly diagnosed CRC patients in the 45,828 patients with GERD. Relatively, there were 2375 incident CRC cases in 229,140 patients without GERD. The incidence rate of CRC for the GERD cohort (17.60 per 10,000 person-years) was significantly higher than the corresponding incidence rate for the comparison cohort (10.22 per 10,000 person-years). After adjustment for confounders, GERD was associated with a significantly increased risk of CRC (adjusted HR,1.76; 95% CI, 1.62-2.90). Of note, a significant association between GERD and CRC risk was evident in both genders.

In conclusion, this nationwide population-based cohort study supports the hypothesis that GERD was associated with a significantly increased risk of CRC. Our findings warrant still further investigation of the underlying mechanisms related to carcinogenic effect of GERD on colorectal carcinoma.

CDKs govern cell cycle progression, and trilaciclib induces a transient, reversible G1 cell cycle arrest of proliferating haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells in bone marrow, thus protecting them from damage during chemotherapy. BafilomycinA1 In February 2021, trilaciclib received its first approval in the USA to decrease the incidence of chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression in adult patients when administered prior to a platinum/etoposide-containing regimen or topotecan-containing regimen for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). Clinical studies in breast cancer, colorectal cancer and small cell lung cancer are underway in several countries. This article summarizes the milestones in the development of trilaciclib leading to this first approval.Casimersen (Amondys 45™) is an antisense oligonucleotide of the phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomer subclass developed by Sarepta Therapeutics for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) in patients who have a mutation in the DMD gene that is amenable to exon 45 skipping. Administered by intravenous infusion, casimersen is designed to bind to exon 45 of the DMD gene pre-mRNA, resulting in skipping of this exon during mRNA processing, intended to allow for production of an internally truncated but functional dystrophin protein in patients with DMD. Casimersen received its first approval on 25 February 2021, in the USA, for the treatment of DMD in patients who have a confirmed mutation of the DMD gene that is amenable to exon 45 skipping. The approval, granted under the US FDA Accelerated Approval Program, was based on an observed increase in dystrophin production in skeletal muscle in patients treated with casimersen. Casimersen is continuing in phase III development for the treatment of DMD in several other countries worldwide.
