Glucagon-like peptide-1 analogs and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors are promising therapeutic options for diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), although their cardioprotective mechanisms are not yet fully understood.Objective: This study evaluates the effects of liraglutide and empagliflozin on oxidative stress, inflammation, and histological changes in cardiac tissue in DCM.Materials and methods: Thirty-seven male Wistar albino rats were divided into four groups. Diabetes was induced in three groups using streptozotocin and nicotinamide. The groups were: (1) Control, (2) DM, (3) DM + Liraglutide (0.6 mg/kg, subcutaneously, 8 weeks), and (4) DM + Empagliflozin (30 mg/kg, oral gavage, 8 weeks). Blood samples were analyzed through enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1 (IL-1), malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), advanced glycation end (AGEs) products, and insulin. Cardiac tissue was examined histopathologically.Results: Diabetes significantly increased blood glucose, IL-1, TNF-α, MDA, and AGEs (p < 0.01), while SOD levels decreased (p < 0.01), alongside myocardial damage. Liraglutide and empagliflozin improved all parameters (p < 0.01).Conclusion: Liraglutide and empagliflozin mitigate diabetes-induced cardiac damage, likely by reducing fibrosis, oxidative stress, and inflammation.","PeriodicalId":12736,"journal":{"name":"Gaceta medica de Mexico","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145250826","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Prior informed consent and women aged 18-45 years were included. The Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS), the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), the Maternal Anxiety and Depression Scale (MAAS), and the Postpartum Bonding Questionnaire (PBQ) were applied. Mann-Whitney U, Chi-square, and multiple logistic regression were used.Results: 143 women were included (24.5% with PD according to EPDS); 36.4% presented anxiety symptoms according to HADS. According to the MAAS, the most frequent MIB style was strong and healthy (57.3%), while those with PD (37.2%) presented a negative MIB style. In PBQ, 9.09% presented alterations in MIB style. The presence of alterations in MIB was a risk factor for developing PD (OR = 3.99; 95% CI: 1.130-14.125; p = 0.032).Conclusions: Most women showed strong and healthy MIB, while those with alterations in MIB showed three times more risk for PD.

Collectively, IEM encompasses approximately 1000 different disorders and can affect up to 1 in 2000 births. While biochemical newborn screening programs have been successfully applied to early identify newborns with treatable IEM conditions and to reduce their associated morbidity and mortality, the great majority of known IEM are not recognizable through biochemical screening. In recent years, next generation DNA sequencing technologies (including sequencing of gene panels, exome sequencing, and genome sequencing) has revolutionized the genetic diagnosis of monogenic diseases, including IEM. Here, we present a narrative review with selected bibliography to show a general landscape about the current status of NGS-based IEM diagnosis as well as its intrinsic limitations. NGS can detect newborns with metabolic diseases that may otherwise be clinically unrecognized until symptoms start. Importantly, a subgroup of these newborns will benefit from individualized medical management.","PeriodicalId":12736,"journal":{"name":"Gaceta medica de Mexico","volume":"161 1","pages":"28-32"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144325253","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, the genome of 140,000 individuals in the Mexico City Prospective Study (MCPS) cohort was explored, and it was found that the average Amerindian ancestry (AMR) was 66.2%, followed by European (29.2%), African (3.7%), and Asian (0.8%) ancestries. However, the proportions of ancestry vary by geographic region of the country, with an increasing gradient of AMR from north to south. Despite the importance of this relationship, there are few studies that have analyzed the relationship between obesity and AMR, and the results are controversial. The relationship between AMR and central obesity has been more consistent, especially in women. Few genetic variants associated with obesity have been found in Mexico, due to the small number of individuals analyzed. Future analysis of the MCPS cohort will likely clarify the relationship between AMR and obesity, and identify genetic variations and genes associated with obesity and other metabolic diseases, specific to the Amerindian genome.","PeriodicalId":12736,"journal":{"name":"Gaceta medica de Mexico","volume":"161 1","pages":"41-47"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144325242","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
