The Effect of Combined Exercise and Diet on Obese Mice

Obesity is a metabolic condition resulting from an imbalance between the energy consumed and the energy expended. This is often caused by an increase in the intake of calorie-dense foods and a decrease in physical activity, leading to an abnormal build-up of fat. Such fat accumulation can have serious health consequences, raising the risk of chronic diseases like cardiovascular conditions, diabetes, and some cancers. It is usually associated with a higher prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and asthma.

Precision Aerosol Therapy Through AI And flexiVent-Controlled Delivery

Yang, L., et al (2024) introduces LungVis 1.0, an AI-driven imaging platform integrating light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) and deep learning for mapping nanoparticle (NP) deposition across murine lungs. The research highlights the advantages of aerosol-based delivery methods over traditional liquid-based approaches, emphasizing the uniformity of NP deposition in distal alveolar regions achieved via ventilator-assisted aerosol delivery (VAAD).

Lung Cell Transplantation In Lung Fibrosis Treatment

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) remains a devastating condition with limited treatment options, often leading to a grim prognosis. However, a recent study by Milman-Krentsis (2024) offers a beacon of hope, demonstrating the potential of lung cell transplantation as a therapeutic intervention for lung fibrosis.
