Compared with those in the control group, the expression levels of GPX4 and GSH in the uterus and placenta of PCOS rats were lower, and the expression levels of the ferroptosis-related genes ACSL4, TFCR1, SLC7A11, and glutamate cysteine ligase C were significantly increased (127)
Reports on safety concerns included observational data suggesting that GLP-1 RAs, especially the more potent agents are not associated with significantly increased risks for pancreatitis or medullary thyroid carcinoma
Based on the plethora of symptoms affecting different organs/systems, PASC-affected population could be categorized into four different clusters or sub-phenotypes: Sub-phenotype-1 (33.8%) with cardiac and renal manifestations, Sub-phenotype-2 (32.8%) with respiratory, sleep and anxiety disorders, Sub-phenotype-3 (23.4%) with skeleton-muscular and nervous disorders, and Sub-phenotype-4 (10.1%) with digestive and pulmonary dysfunctions 123,136
