Abstract

Plant-pollinator interactions are key for the reproduction of wild plants and for food security. However, the role nocturnal pollinators play in wild plant communities is not yet clear. Specifically, it has rarely been studied whether nocturnal pollinators are comparable to diurnal ones in the pollination services they deliver in plant communities. We tested whether nocturnal pollinators have the potential to provide high pollination services to the plants they visit by carrying high conspecific pollen loads. We studied pollen loads carried by nocturnal and diurnal pollinators captured over 24-hour cycles in co-flowering plant communities in Swiss ruderal meadows. Pollen load was less diverse at night, and the proportion of conspecific pollen carried by nocturnal pollinators was higher than that of diurnal ones. Because the majority of plant species visited at night were also visited during the day, floral resource availability could drive the observed patterns in pollen load and amount of conspecific pollen. Nevertheless, nocturnal pollinators do not only carry pollen but can remove and potentially deposit conspecific pollen to the plants they visit. Therefore, pollinators active at night might be an important pollination vector for more plant species than previously thought and should not be neglected in pollination studies.

Abstract

Weight loss is reported with oral roflumilast, which is approved for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Recently, the drug has shown efficacy in psoriasis, a disease strongly linked to overweight/obesity. To describe the effects of oral roflumilast on body weight and cardio-metabolic parameters in patients with psoriasis. Posthoc analyses from the PSORRO study, where patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis were randomized 1:1 to oral roflumilast 500 μg once-daily or placebo for 12 weeks, followed by active, open-label treatment through week 24 in both groups. Changes in body weight, blood pressure, gastrointestinal symptoms, and laboratory tests were registered. No lifestyle or dietary interventions were applied. Forty-six patients were randomized. Baseline characteristics across groups were comparable; mean weight was 103.6 kg. In patients receiving roflumilast, median weight change was −2.6% and −4% at week 12 and 24, respectively. Corresponding numbers were 0.0% and 1.3% in patients initially allocated to placebo. Reduced appetite was more frequent with active therapy. No changes in blood pressure or laboratory tests were observed. Posthoc analyses and low numbers. Oral roflumilast induced weight loss and reduced appetite, which support the growing evidence of roflumilast as an attractive treatment alternative for patients with psoriasis.

Abstract

Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have previously demonstrated cardioprotective properties in patients with type 2 diabetes, suggesting a preventive effect on heart failure (HF). The Empire Prevent trial program investigates the therapeutic potential for HF prevention by evaluating the cardiac, metabolic, and renal effects of the SGLT2 inhibitor empagliflozin in patients with increased risk of developing HF, but without diabetes or established HF. The Empire Prevent trial program is an investigator-initiated, double-blind, randomized clinical trial program including elderly and obese patients (60-84 years, body mass index >28 kg/m2) with at least one manifestation of hypertension, cardiovascular or chronic kidney disease, but no history of diabetes or HF. The aims are to investigate the effects of empagliflozin on 1) physical capacity and left ventricular and atrial structural changes with peak oxygen consumption and left ventricular mass as primary endpoints (Empire Prevent Cardiac), and 2) cardiac-adipose tissue interaction and volume homeostasis with primary endpoints of changes in epicardial adipose tissue and estimated extracellular volume (Empire Prevent Metabolic). At present, 138 of 204 patients have been randomized in the Empire Prevent trial program. Patients are randomized 1:1 to 180 days treatment with empagliflozin 10 mg daily or placebo, while undergoing a comprehensive examination program at baseline and follow-up. The Empire Prevent trial program will mark the first step towards elucidating the potential of SGLT2 inhibition for HF prevention in an outpatient setting in elderly and obese patients with increased risk of developing HF, but with no history of diabetes or established HF. Furthermore, the Empire Prevent trial program will supplement the larger event-driven trials by providing mechanistic insights to the beneficial effects of SGLT2 inhibition. Both parts of the trial program have been registered on September 13th 2021 (Clinical Trial Registration numbers: NCT05084235 and NCT05042973) before enrollment of the first patient. All patients will provide oral and written informed consent. The trial is approved by The Regional Committee on Health Research Ethics and the Danish Medicines Agency. Data will be disseminated through scientific meetings and peer-reviewed journals irrespective of outcome. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
