Biological mechanisms of atropine in myopia control (Review).

Myopia is now recognized as a progressive, potentially sight‑threatening disease rather than just a refractive error, with its prevalence rising rapidly worldwide due to its high occurrence, major vision losses and huge public health cost. The World Health Organization estimates that 2.6 billion individuals in the world were myopic in 2020 this figure is projected to increase to 3.364 billion by 2030. Although myopia may be better controlled in its early stages, it may not be completely reversed at this time. Of all of the methods for controlling myopia, atropine, a muscarinic receptor antagonist, remains an effective pharmacological option for slowing myopia progression in children. However, the mechanisms of action of atropine remain to be fully elucidated. This review provided a systematic review for myopia epidemiology, pathogenesis, the effects and side effects, as well as up‑to‑date possible mechanisms, in the hope of facilitating that researchers in this field elucidate its underlying mechanisms so that clinical ophthalmologists may be able to better control this disease.

Weight regain following discontinuation of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists in adults who are overweight or obese: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

OBJECTIVE: This study aims to explore the effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) on weight changes and the occurrence of adverse reactions in overweight or obese adults after drug withdrawal. METHODS: Computerized searches were conducted in evidence-based databases such as PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library and Scopus. The search period was from the establishment of the database to December 2025. Collect randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and controlled trials on GLP-1RAs, including tirzepatide, semaglutide, liraglutide, and dulaglutide, for the treatment of overweight or obese adult patients. The risk of bias in the included studies was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias V2.0 tool provided by the Cochrane Collaboration, and meta-analysis was performed using the R programming language. RESULTS: A total of 699 studies were initially retrieved. Eventually, six studies involving 8,993 patients were included in the quantitative analysis, comprising 5,553 patients in the discontinuation group and 3,440 in the continued treatment group. The results of the meta-analysis showed that, compared with the continued treatment group, the weight difference in the discontinuation group was mean difference (MD) = 17.90%, 95% confidence interval (CI) [14.11-21.69], P < 0.0001. It can be seen that there was a significant rebound in weight after drug withdrawal, and there was statistical heterogeneity among the studies (P = 0.0082). Subgroup analysis further revealed that the weight rebound amplitude after discontinuation of tirzepatide was significantly higher than that of semaglutide. This result suggests that the differences in the mechanism of action of different GLP-1RAs may be the reason for the differences in weight changes after discontinuation. In addition, the percentage difference in body weight between after and before drug withdrawal was MD = 9.11%, 95% CI [7.91-10.30], P < 0.0001, further verifying the trend of weight rebound after drug withdrawal. The summary of adverse reaction reports analyzed and studied indicates that after drug withdrawal, the overall adverse reactions of patients decreased, gastrointestinal adverse reactions decreased, and the incidence of cardiovascular events was not affected by drug withdrawal. CONCLUSION: There is a significant weight rebound phenomenon after discontinuation of GLP-1RAs, and the rebound magnitudes vary among different types of drugs. At the same time, there is a risk of adverse reactions during the use of such drugs.

Post-trial 12-month follow-up of TRACE (targeted research on addictive and compulsive eating) randomised controlled trial participants: A brief report.

Few treatment interventions for addictive eating have evaluated long-term effectiveness. This post-trial follow-up study evaluates secondary changes in addictive eating symptoms and quality of life at 12-months in a sample of individuals who participated in the TRACE (Targeted Research for Addictive and Compulsive Eating) RCT. Thirty-three adults out of possible 144 (82% female), median age 53 years, randomised to either the active intervention (five telehealth sessions delivered over 3-months), passive intervention (self-guided workbook) or control group completed an online post-trial survey. Pre- and immediate post-intervention (3-months) outcomes were compared to 12-months post-trial outcomes. Positive effects reported in the short term showed a rebound effect at post-trial follow-up in ∼50% of participants. The findings suggest that longer term support is needed to maintain changes in addictive eating behaviours and improve quality of life. Future research is needed to identify optimal intervention durations and support options for sustained change. Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ACTRN12621001079831).

Identification of the BrSK gene family in flowering Chinese cabbage and functional characterization of BrSK2 subfamily involvement in heat stress.

Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) kinases are evolutionarily conserved regulators of plant development and stress signaling, yet their contributions to thermotolerance in cool-adapted Brassica crops remain poorly understood. Here, we identified 16 BrSK genes in the Caixin (Brassica rapa ssp. chinensis var. parachinensis) genome, all harboring intact catalytic motifs indicative of functional kinase activity. Spatiotemporal expression profiling revealed preferential accumulation of BrSK transcripts in stem apices and floral organs during reproductive transition, while promoter analysis identified abundant heat- and abiotic stress-responsive cis-elements. Under heat stress, BrSK21, BrSK22, and BrSK23 displayed striking genotype-specific expression dynamics. BrSK21/22/23 transcripts were stably suppressed in the heat-tolerant cultivar '49-19' but transiently declined before rapidly rebounding in the heat-sensitive 'Liuye 50', mirroring RNA-seq profiles. Protein-protein interaction assays (Y2H, BiFC, and LCI) demonstrated specific associations between BrSK kinases and BrHSFA1. Functional validation via VIGS revealed that silencing of BrSK21 significantly enhanced thermotolerance, with triple silencing of BrSK21/22/23 conferring additive protection, indicating functional redundancy within the BrSK2 subfamily. Collectively, these findings establish the BrSK2 subfamily as negative regulators of heat tolerance in Caixin, likely via modulation of BrHSFA1 expression. This work identifies high-priority targets for molecular breeding of climate-resilient Brassica vegetables.
