Investigating the Hepatic Response to Orlistat and White Tea in Rats on a High-Fat Diet
High-fat diets have detrimental health impacts that increase the likelihood of developing obesity and metabolic syndrome. This study aimed to examine the potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of orlistat and white tea in rats fed a high-fat diet. Thirty-two rats were randomized into four groups: control (standard diet), HFD (high-fat diet), HFD+Orlistat (high-fat diet+orlistat), and HFD+WT (high-fat diet+white tea extract). A significant increase in malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and...

Sex-Specific Associations between Thyroid Status, Inflammation and Hemostasis Biomarkers in Patients with Subacute Thyroiditis
Background: Subacute thyroiditis (SAT) is characterized by profound inflammation and fluctuations in thyroid hormones which may affect the hemostasis balance. This study investigates sex-specific associations between thyroid status, inflammation and hemostasis biomarkers in SAT. Methods: We included 52 patients (40 women and 12 men) treated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) or methylprednisolone (MPS). Free thyroxine (fT4), thyroid stimulating hormone, C-reactive protein, complete...
