Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a vitamin-like substance present in cells that is involved in energy production. It was first discovered in 1957 and plays a key role in the electron transport chain in mitochondria to generate energy in the form of ATP. CoQ10 levels can decrease with age or with statin use, and taking CoQ10 supplements along with statins may reduce side effects while maintaining cardio protection. Clinical studies have shown improvements in cardiac function and symptoms in heart failure patients taking CoQ10 supplements.Food as Medicine:CoQ10

Coenzyme Q10, also known as ubiquinone, is an essential cofactor in the body's electron transport chain and is important for energy production. It exists in three forms - oxidized, semiquinone, and reduced - and functions as an antioxidant. Dietary sources include meats, soybean oil, and broccoli. CoQ10 levels are reduced in many diseases and it has shown benefits for heart health, hypertension, and gum disease. Absorption is enhanced when taken with fat and statin drugs can lower CoQ10 levels. While it has an excellent safety profile, it may interact with warfarin and anthracyclines. Typical supplemental dosages range from 100-200mg dailyCoenzyme Q10 - Ubiquinone

Drug-food and drug-herb interactions can occur via several mechanisms:
1) Reduced or delayed drug absorption due to food components binding to drugs or slowing gastric emptying. Examples include calcium in milk binding tetracycline and tannins in tea impairing iron absorption.
2) Increased drug absorption when foods increase drug dissolution, secretion of gastrointestinal fluids, or delay gastric emptying. Examples include increased absorption of antibiotics with fatty foods.
3) Altered drug metabolism through effects on cytochrome P450 enzyme activity. Grapefruit juice and St. John's Wort inhibit CYP3A4, increasing drug levels of medications metabolized by this enzyme and risk of toxicity.

Cilnidipine is a dual-acting calcium channel blocker that blocks both L-type and N-type calcium channels. It is used to treat hypertension. Studies have shown that cilnidipine is as effective at lowering blood pressure as amlodipine, but it does not cause reflex tachycardia and has a lower risk of side effects like ankle edema. Combining cilnidipine with drugs that inhibit the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system provides improved blood pressure control and reduces cardiac remodeling compared to other calcium channel blockers. Cilnidipine's unique dual blocking properties also help regulate leptin secretion, reducing atherosclerosis risk in obese hypertensive patientsType 2 dm etiology & reversibility (diabetes care, april 2013)

Type 2 diabetes has traditionally been viewed as a progressive disease requiring increasingly intensive treatment over time. However, recent evidence shows that type 2 diabetes is fully reversible through substantial weight loss induced by bariatric surgery or low-calorie diets. Within weeks of such interventions, fasting glucose levels can normalize as liver fat is reduced and hepatic insulin sensitivity improves. Over months, pancreatic fat depletion leads to the full restoration of beta cell function. This demonstrates that type 2 diabetes is caused by excess fat in metabolic organs and is a potentially reversible condition through weight loss and improved metabolic health.Algorithms for Diabetes Management for Students

Non-Invasive ICP Monitoring for NeurosurgeonsDhaval Shukla
油
This presentation delves into the latest advancements in non-invasive intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring techniques, specifically tailored for neurosurgeons. It covers the importance of ICP monitoring in clinical practice, explores various non-invasive methods, and discusses their accuracy, reliability, and clinical applications. Attendees will gain insights into the benefits of non-invasive approaches over traditional invasive methods, including reduced risk of complications and improved patient outcomes. This comprehensive overview is designed to enhance the knowledge and skills of neurosurgeons in managing patients with neurological conditions.
Invasive systems are commonly used for monitoring intracranial pressure (ICP) in traumatic brain injury (TBI) and are considered the gold standard. The availability of invasive ICP monitoring is heterogeneous, and in low- and middle-income settings, these systems are not routinely employed due to high cost or limited accessibility. The aim of this presentation is to develop recommendations to guide monitoring and ICP-driven therapies in TBI using non-invasive ICP (nICP) systems.

The shoulder complex acts as in coordinated fashion to provide the smoothest and greatest range of motion possible of the upper limb.
Combined motion of GH and ST joint of shoulder complex helps in:
Distribution of motion between other two joints.
Maintenance of glenoid fossa in optimal position.
Maintenance of good length tension
Although some amount of glenohumeral motion may occur while the other shoulder articulations remain stabilized, movement of the humerus more commonly involves some movement at all three shoulder joints.

Creatines Untold Story and How 30-Year-Old Lessons Can Shape the FutureSteve Jennings
油
Creatine burst into the public consciousness in 1992 when an investigative reporter inside the Olympic Village in Barcelona caught wind of British athletes using a product called Ergomax C150. This led to an explosion of interest in and questions about the ingredient after high-profile British athletes won multiple gold medals.
I developed Ergomax C150, working closely with the late and great Dr. Roger Harris (1944 2024), and Prof. Erik Hultman (1925 2011), the pioneering scientists behind the landmark studies of creatine and athletic performance in the early 1990s.
Thirty years on, these are the slides I used at the Sports & Active Nutrition Summit 2025 to share the story, the lessons from that time, and how and why creatine will play a pivotal role in tomorrows high-growth active nutrition and healthspan categories.Renal Physiology - Regulation of GFR and RBF
