Equal Failure, Unequal Timelines: Re-Rupture and Return-to-Sport After ACL Reconstruction Across Hamstring, Patellar, and Quadriceps Grafts in Elite Male Footballers

This review of elite male footballers indicates that while hamstring, patellar tendon, and quadriceps tendon grafts all demonstrate similarly low re-rupture rates and high return-to-sport success, the quadriceps tendon's specific safety profile remains unestablished due to limited data and significant heterogeneity in reporting.

Remote vs In-Person Follow-up Programming After Subthalamic DBS for Parkinson Disease: A Multicentre Randomized Noninferiority Trial

This multicentre randomized noninferiority trial demonstrates that remote follow-up programming for Parkinson disease patients after subthalamic deep brain stimulation is feasible, safe, and achieves motor outcomes noninferior to conventional in-person care during the first three months post-surgery.

Baicalin-Fe Self-Assembled Nanoparticles Alleviate Acute Lung Injury via ROS Scavenging and Anti-Inflammation through Lung-gut Axis Homeostasis Restoration

This study demonstrates that baicalin-Fe self-assembled nanoparticles alleviate acute lung injury by directly targeting the mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) to suppress calcium overload and oxidative stress, thereby inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation and restoring lung-gut axis homeostasis with high biosafety.

Cardiovascular Effects and Safety of Lisdexamfetamine in Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and Healthy Volunteers: A Systematic Review.

This systematic review of 20 studies concludes that lisdexamfetamine generally exhibits a favorable cardiovascular safety profile characterized by modest, clinically manageable increases in heart rate and blood pressure, though ongoing monitoring remains essential, particularly for patients with pre-existing cardiovascular risk factors.

Glycaemic Variability and C-Peptide in Bangladeshi Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults with Diabetes: A Prospective Study

This prospective study of 97 Bangladeshi youth with diabetes reveals that glycaemic variability frequently exceeds international targets and is significantly associated with lower fasting C-peptide levels, suggesting residual beta-cell function may serve as a low-cost predictor for identifying high-risk patients in resource-limited settings.

Regulating the Unregulated: A Public Health Case for Setting Sugar Thresholds and Package Caps on Energy Drinks in Nigeria

This study argues that to mitigate the significant public health risks posed by unregulated sugar content and large package sizes in Nigeria's energy drink market, the government must implement statutory sugar caps, limit maximum container volumes, and restructure fiscal levies to incentivize product reformulation.

Effects of Nutritional Supplementation on Apolipoprotein B– Related Biomarkers in Adults with Dyslipidaemia: A Protocol for a Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

This protocol outlines a systematic review and meta-analysis designed to evaluate the effects of various nutritional supplements on Apolipoprotein B-related biomarkers, including ApoB, the ApoB/ApoA1 ratio, and non-HDL-C, in adults with dyslipidaemia to inform contemporary cardiovascular risk management strategies.
