In this episode of the National Crawford Roundtable podcast the guys continue their discussion from the last episode regarding the response to Trump's Ballroom. Is the Lib outrage fake? What about changes that have been made over the decades by other American Presidents? Will the Ballroom actually save taxpayer dollars? The guys also look at Government Aid/Benefits/Hand-outs--will the lack of these resources cause "Theft Retaliation?" Have we created an "entitled" society? What is the biblical stance on accepting aid or handouts--is it against biblical principles? And what is the proper Christian response to Halloween? Is it an "evil" holiday? Does it promote wickedness?

In this powerful and funny episode of The Black Country Blokes, Kev and Lee sit down with their long-time mate Adrian (“Aid”), who's gearing up to run the New York Marathon to raise money for The Black Country Blokes C.I.C. and support men's mental health.What starts as a catch-up between three dads turns into an honest chat about fatherhood, guilt, burnout, running as therapy, and the fine line between bravery and breakdown. Aid shares how discipline beats motivation, why bad runs can be as valuable as good ones, and the moment he got so fed up he even told a rainbow to f*** off — then kept going.

Yes, you can lose weight by reducing calories whether through a calorie-cutting diet, bariatric procedure, or pharmaceutical. But the effect is almost always temporary and followed by a return of weight followed by significant downturn in health. You were also likely not advised that losing weight by cutting calories, we now know through tracking of large numbers of people over many years, likely abbreviates your life by several years. In this and future podcasts, I will be introducing concepts that block these effects, concepts that I shall be exploring in even greater depth in my new book, Super Body. **Disclaimer:**The information presented in my books, blog posts, YouTube videos, podcasts, and other content is for informational and educational purposes only.

Thousands of Palestinians have been freed under a fragile ceasefire between Hamas and Israel – but many more remain in Israeli prisons. As arrests continue and families wait for answers, what does “freedom” really mean under occupation? And how does detention shape daily life, resistance, and hope in Palestine? In this episode: Maram Humaid (@MaramGaza), Reporter, Al Jazeera Shawan Jabarin (@SJabaren), General Director, Al-Haq Episode credits: This episode was produced by Marcos Bartolomé and Melanie Marich, with Catherine Nouhan, Haleema Shah, Fatima Shafiq, Tamara Khandaker and our guest host, Kevin Hirten.

With his son Yoav Oren (former IDF special‑forces soldier) Ambassador Michael Oren (historian; former Israeli Ambassador to the U.S.) sits down for anunvarnished assessment of the war what “victory” actually means. Highlights: Psychology of war & the IDF: A deep dive into moral erosion under prolonged combat; how rage, fear, and fatigue are managed; why some units choose capture‑over‑kill in close quarters; and the IDF practice of embedding psychologists with frontline units during Gaza operations to stabilize judgment in real time. Oren's two‑line verdict: “Emphatically yes” on military success; “tragically no” because the fight mutates if Hamas retains weapons and cover. The “Hezbollah model” in Gaza: why a foreign peacekeeping shield + undisbursed weapons equals a forever threat. Hostages, Doha, and leverage: what actually forced movement — and what happens next if disarmament stalls. Gaza casualty math, explained from Oren's perspective (the 1:1 claim and why the numbers are contested). How Hamas turns humanitarian aid into a war economy; the logistics and the alleged skimming. On restraint under fire: Yoav's close‑quarters firefight, triage under fire, and the decision to capture, not kill. Anti‑Semitism's uncensored return in the West — and why, according to Oren, arguments and “hasbara” often misfire. USS Liberty: Oren's step‑by‑step rebuttal to the “deliberate attack” narrative. The strategic endgame: surgical strikes, cutting aid diversion, and whether disarmament is possible without a full re‑invasion. 00:00 Intro 01:50 Did Israel “win”? 04:30 Gaza's tunnels and the unique urban fight 06:10 Multi‑front picture (Hezbollah, Iran, Houthis) 07:45 From battlefield gains to regional diplomacy 08:50 Hostages and the “diplomatic shield” 12:50 Why Hamas released hostages (and why it mattered) 15:10 Will Israelis accept another ground push? 15:40 Surgical strikes vs. re‑invasion 16:30 Aid diversion and UN logistics 23:00 Doha strike debate 32:10 IDF conduct under fire; Yoav's firefight 41:00 Rules of engagement, restraint, and misinformation 55:20 Psych support embedded with IDF units 59:00 USS Liberty — the case against conspiracy 1:09:10 Closing thoughts: victory, vigilance, and what comes next

Tilda Swinton is one of the UK's most singular and celebrated performers. Over four decades she has delivered unforgettable and varied screen performances, notably Orlando, The Chronicles of Narnia, Michael Clayton and Asteroid City and collaborated with artists and filmmakers. She joins Anita Rani to talk about a new exhibition in Amsterdam celebrating her work and the enduring relationships that have inspired her.According to the latest data, homelessness is rising. Over 130,000 households were in temporary accommodation in June, up 7.6% from last year. Charities warn that women are underrepresented in the data, as they often face different challenges to men. The Women's Rough Sleeping Census, now in its fourth year, aims to address this. Rebecca Goshawk, Director of Business Development at Solace Women's Aid, joins Anita to discuss it. Named after pioneering racing driver Gwenda Stewart, Gwenda's Garage was a real place: where three female mechanics defied the odds by setting up their own garage in Sheffield in the 1980s. Their inspiring story is now a musical on stage in Sheffield which is based on these true events, of women fighting everyday sexism, homophobia and Section 28. Anita is joined by Roz Wollen, one of the co-founders of the original Gwenda's Garage and Val Regan, the production's composer and musical director.The FCA has called on banks and payment firms to bring in stricter controls protecting customers from romance fraud after a study showed a number of missed “red flags” that led to people losing huge sums of money to people creating fake online profiles. They found that women tended to sustain these relationships for longer which could mean a bigger scam. Anita speaks to Beth Harris, Head of Financial Crime at the Financial Conduct Authority to ask how we can be aware of these scams and avoid them, and what banks should be doing to assist.Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Corinna Jones

A ceasefire is holding in Gaza. Aid is beginning to flow. The remaining Israeli hostages have been released, as have nearly 2,000 Palestinians from Israeli detention. This has been a truly remarkable day in the Middle East. But can this positive momentum be sustained? I recorded this conversation with Matt Duss of the Center for International Policy just moments after Donald Trump met with an impressive array of world leaders in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, in a ceremony designed to cement his personal investment in this peace plan. We kick off by discussing the significance of the spectacle and ceremony in Sharm el-Sheikh, then have a longer conversation about how the ceasefire came together and the many pitfalls that remain. This ceasefire is fragile. Hamas is reconstituting. And the Israeli government remains opposed to a viable Palestinian State. But this is nonetheless a significant inflection point after two years of brutal war.  

Two more bodies of deceased hostages have been handed over to the Red Cross by Hamas, following Israel's accusation that the militant group were failing to abide by the terms of the ceasefire deal. Aid is continuing to roll into Gaza despite threats from Israel that they would cut supplies and close border crossings. But there are heightened concerns for the fragile ceasefire, amid reports US President Donald Trump is considering allowing Israel to resume its military activities.

Aid being restricted over the return of dead hostages in Gaza; Venezuela to close its embassy in Australia as its conflict with the US continues; and in sport, Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski facing a stint on the sidelines.

Bienvenue dans la saison 5 "La voix en héritage"! Rejoins moi sur Sweet Elles : https://go.sweetpapipodcast.com/sweetelles Aujourd'hui, dans SWEET PAPI PODCAST, on parle d'un sujet souvent tabou : la honte et la gêne dans l'accompagnement de fin de vie. J'ai partagé comment ces moments difficiles peuvent devenir des occasions uniques de respect et de dignité, autant pour l'aidant que pour la personne aidée. L'important, c'est de communiquer, d'expliquer ses gestes et de toujours valoriser la personne derrière la dépendance. Si tu as déjà ressenti ce malaise, sache que tu n'es pas seul.e : c'est en apprivoisant la honte qu'on renforce le lien humain.  Voici 3 points à retenir de cet épisode : Parler et expliquer apaise la honte : Ce n'est pas le geste qui blesse, mais la manière dont il est vécu. Expliquer chaque action, proposer des alternatives, valoriser ce que la personne peut encore faire permet de préserver la dignité. La honte est partagée : Aidés comme aidants ressentent cette gêne, mais l'accepter ensemble, sans la nier, ouvre la porte à plus d'authenticité et de respect dans la relation. Ne pas banaliser la vulnérabilité : Reconnaître que c'est difficile pour tous, mais aussi normal d'être aidé, change la façon de vivre ces situations et permet de renforcer le lien humain. Si ce sujet t'inspire ou te touche, je t'invite à écouter l'épisode complet, à t'abonner au podcast, et à partager ce message à celles et ceux qui accompagnent des proches ou vivent ces questions au quotidien.

Bienvenue dans la saison 5 "La voix en héritage"! Rejoins moi sur Sweet Elles : https://go.sweetpapipodcast.com/sweetelles Aujourd'hui, dans SWEET PAPI PODCAST, on parle d'un sujet souvent tabou : la honte et la gêne dans l'accompagnement de fin de vie. J'ai partagé comment ces moments difficiles peuvent devenir des occasions uniques de respect et de dignité, autant pour l'aidant que pour la personne aidée. L'important, c'est de communiquer, d'expliquer ses gestes et de toujours valoriser la personne derrière la dépendance. Si tu as déjà ressenti ce malaise, sache que tu n'es pas seul.e : c'est en apprivoisant la honte qu'on renforce le lien humain.  Voici 3 points à retenir de cet épisode : Parler et expliquer apaise la honte : Ce n'est pas le geste qui blesse, mais la manière dont il est vécu. Expliquer chaque action, proposer des alternatives, valoriser ce que la personne peut encore faire permet de préserver la dignité. La honte est partagée : Aidés comme aidants ressentent cette gêne, mais l'accepter ensemble, sans la nier, ouvre la porte à plus d'authenticité et de respect dans la relation. Ne pas banaliser la vulnérabilité : Reconnaître que c'est difficile pour tous, mais aussi normal d'être aidé, change la façon de vivre ces situations et permet de renforcer le lien humain. Si ce sujet t'inspire ou te touche, je t'invite à écouter l'épisode complet, à t'abonner au podcast, et à partager ce message à celles et ceux qui accompagnent des proches ou vivent ces questions au quotidien.

In this Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, we cover the historic Middle East ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, the growing civil war inside Gaza, Trump's new Air Force training deal with Qatar, and China's shocking escalation in the global Mineral Wars. Quick hits to launch your week with the facts shaping America and the world.   Hostages Freed as Trump Arrives for Ceasefire Signing: Twenty surviving Israeli hostages are being released to the Red Cross today as President Trump lands in Israel and prepares to sign the ceasefire in Egypt. The deal, brokered through Qatar, Turkey, and Egypt, includes a full Israeli withdrawal to defensive lines, the exchange of Palestinian prisoners, and the start of Gaza's transition toward international oversight. Bryan says, “It's remarkable that we've gotten this far — and it's largely driven by President Trump.”   Civil War Erupts Inside Gaza: As the ceasefire holds, Hamas is now killing rival Palestinian clans who refuse to submit to its rule. The Dormush clan was attacked while sheltering in a Gaza hospital. Arab outlets confirm that Hamas is executing and torturing noncompliant Palestinians from north to south. Bryan warns, “They are drowning rats now — butchers to the very end.”   The Next Phase: Rebuilding and Corruption Fears: Eighty-three percent of Gaza's buildings are damaged or destroyed, comparable to post–World War II Europe. Israel has mapped only 30 percent of Hamas's 350-mile tunnel network, which must be filled before reconstruction. Aid officials propose a Gaza-only cryptocurrency to track relief money and curb corruption as Arab and European funds begin pouring in.   Trump's Qatar Deal and Backlash in Idaho: Qatar will build an Air Force facility at Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho to train its pilots on American F-15s. Critics like Steve Bannon and Laura Loomer warn that allowing a foreign Arab government to operate on U.S. soil invites danger. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth responded that “it's not a base — it's a building — and it's under Pentagon control.” Bryan adds, “That's the price Trump was willing to pay to secure a ceasefire in Gaza and pivot our focus to China.”   China Escalates the Mineral Wars: Beijing shocked the world with sweeping new export restrictions on rare earth minerals, magnets, and chip materials, cutting off 90 percent of global supply. The White House responded with 100 percent tariffs on all Chinese goods. Europe is panicking as factories and defense contractors face shortages, while Trump urges calm: “Don't worry about China. It will all be fine.” Bryan warns, “Xi has the world by the neck — and he knows it.”   Market Panic and Pentagon Stockpiling: Global markets plunged Friday before stabilizing after Trump's comments. The Pentagon is buying $1 billion in critical metals, including tungsten, cobalt, and bismuth, and pitching Australia a joint $1 billion production plan. Bryan cautions, “It's going to be a wild ride for your pocketbooks and investments.”   Health Breakthrough: Mitochondria and Anxiety Relief: Swiss and Columbia University researchers found that Urolithin A, a compound in the supplement MitoPure, reversed anxiety in lab animals by repairing brain mitochondria. Bryan celebrates the result, saying, “It's awesome to know that the hard work of finding companies that truly deliver is paying off.”   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Trump Israel Hamas ceasefire Egypt, Israeli hostages release Red Cross, Gaza civil war Hamas clans, Dormush clan Gaza hospital attack, Gaza reconstruction tunnels 350 miles, Gaza crypto aid corruption, Qatar Air Force facility Idaho Mountain Home, Steve Bannon Laura Loomer Qatar criticism, Pete Hegseth Pentagon control quote, China rare earth export controls, Trump 100 percent tariffs Chinese goods, Pentagon critical metals stockpile tungsten cobalt, Australia mineral partnership, Urolithin A MitoPure anxiety mitochondria study

Thousands of displaced Palestinians in southern Gaza have begun to return home, after a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas came into effect. Israel said its forces had pulled back to a redeployment line which had been agreed as part of the US-backed deal. Hamas is now expected to release the remaining Israeli hostages within seventy-two hours. In a televised address, Israel's prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, said his country's troops would remain in Gaza to keep up pressure on Hamas to disarm. Aid agencies have said the ceasefire marks a "fragile but vital moment of hope", as they plan to ramp up the delivery of humanitarian supplies.

The ceasefire in Gaza is in place. Now, thousands of people are on the move, trying to return to their homes, their lives. Aid groups are ready to bring in as much aid as possible, as soon as possible. And in Israel, the families of hostages are waiting to hear when their loved ones will come home. But still, there is fear and worry the deal won't hold.And: The mail will start moving again. Postal workers say they will shift from a total strike to rotating work stoppages.Also: The winner of this year's Nobel Peace prize is… not U.S. President Donald Trump — despite the fact he openly campaigned for the honour.

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX French drugmaker Sanofi says it would offer a month's supply of any of its insulin products for $35 to all patients in the U.S. with a valid prescription, regardless of insurance status. The program, originally meant for uninsured diabetes patients, would now include those with commercial insurance or Medicare, the drugmaker said. Patients will be able to purchase any combination, type, and quantity of Sanofi insulins with a valid prescription for the fixed monthly price of $35, starting January 1. Lilly and Novo also have similar programs through which they offer insulin products for $35 a month for U.S. patients regardless of whether the patients have insurance. There is no law at work here – the only legislation that has changed the price of insulin came with the Inflation Reduction Act in 2022 with the Medicare cap. Helping lower the cost here, biosimilars hitting the market and the huge profitability for GLP-1 drugs for Novo and Lilly https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/sanofi-offer-all-insulin-products-35-per-month-us-2025-09-26/ XX A pill typically prescribed for rheumatoid arthritis and alopecia might help slow the progression of type 1 diabetes, a new study says. Baricitinib (bare-uh-SIT-nib) safely preserved the body's own insulin production in people newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes.. and their diabetes started progressing once they stopped taking baricitinib, results show. They produced less insulin and had less stable blood sugar levels.   Baricitinib works by quelling signals in the body that spur on the immune system, and is already approved for treating autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis and alopecia, researchers said.   “Among the promising agents shown to preserve beta cell function in type 1 diabetes, baricitinib stands out because it can be taken orally, is well tolerated, including by young children, and is clearly efficacious,” Waibel said. “We are hopeful that larger phase III trials with baricitinib are going to commence soon, in people with recently diagnosed type 1 diabetes as well as in earlier stages to delay insulin dependence,” she added. “If these trials are successful, the drug could be approved for type 1 diabetes treatment within five years.”   Findings presented at medical meetings should be considered preliminary until published in a peer-reviewed journal.   https://www.usnews.com/news/health-news/articles/2025-09-23/pill-effective-in-slowing-type-1-diabetes-progression XX An existing transplant drug has shown promise in slowing the progression of type 1 diabetes in newly diagnosed young people, potentially paving the way for the first therapy that modifies the disease after diagnosis. The Drug, called ATG, is currently used together with other medicines to prevent and treat the body from rejecting a kidney transplant. It can also be used to treat rejection following transplantation of other organs, such as hearts, gastrointestinal organs, or lungs. The researchers studied 117 people aged five to 25, who'd been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes within the past three to nine weeks. The participants were from 14 centers across eight European countries and were randomized to be given different doses of ATG (0.1, 0.5, 1.5, or 2.5 mg/kg) or a placebo. ATG was given as a two-day intravenous (IV) infusion. The main goal was to see how well the pancreas could still make insulin after 12 months, measured by C-peptide levels during a special meal test. C-peptide is released into the blood along with insulin by the pancreas.   The findings are promising, showing that ATG, even at a relatively low dose, can slow the loss of insulin-producing cells in young people newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. The lower dose also caused fewer side effects, making it a more practical option. https://newatlas.com/disease/antithymocyte-globulin-newly-diagnosed-type-1-diabetes/     XX The FDA has delayed its feedback on Lexicon Pharmaceuticals' application to bring Zynquista (sotagliflozin) to people with type 1 diabetes. The agency had planned to respond this month but will now wait until the fourth quarter after reviewing new data from ongoing studies. Zynquista, an oral drug meant to be used with insulin, has already been approved for heart failure (marketed as Inpefa). But in type 1 diabetes, it faces safety concerns: last year an FDA advisory committee voted 11–3 that its benefits don't outweigh the increased risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). The FDA later issued a complete response letter rejecting the drug. Lexicon is still pushing forward, hoping its additional submissions will strengthen Zynquista's case for type 1 diabetes approval. https://www.biospace.com/fda/after-fda-rejection-lexicons-type-1-diabetes-drug-hit-with-another-regulatory-delay     XX A common but often undiagnosed genetic condition may be causing delays in type 2 diabetes diagnoses and increasing the risk of serious complications for thousands of Black and South Asian men in the UK—and potentially millions worldwide. A new study found around one in seven Black and one in 63 South Asian men in the UK carry a genetic variant known as G6PD deficiency. Men with G6PD deficiency are, on average, diagnosed with type 2 diabetes four years later than those without the gene variant. But despite this, fewer than one in 50 have been diagnosed with the condition.   G6PD deficiency does not cause diabetes, but it makes the widely used HbA1c blood test—which diagnoses and monitors diabetes—appear artificially low. This can mislead doctors and patients, resulting in delayed diabetes diagnosis and treatment.   The study found men with G6PD deficiency are at a 37% higher risk of developing diabetes-related microvascular complications, such as eye, kidney, and nerve damage, compared to other men with diabetes.   "This study highlights important evidence that must be used to tackle these health inequalities and improve outcomes for Black communities. Preventative measures are now needed to ensure that Black people, especially men, are not underdiagnosed or diagnosed too late." https://medicalxpress.com/news/2025-09-hidden-genetic-delay-diabetes-diagnosis.html XX Novo Nordisk today announced the resubmission of its Biologics License Application (BLA) to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Awiqli® (insulin icodec) injection, a once-weekly basal insulin treatment for adults living with type 2 diabetes. If approved, Awiqli® would become the first once-weekly basal insulin available in the United States, providing an alternative to daily basal insulin injections for adults living with type 2 diabetes.   The resubmission is based on results from the ONWARDS type 2 diabetes phase 3a program for once-weekly Awiqli® which is comprised of five randomized, active-controlled, treat-to-target clinical trials in approximately 4,000 adults with type 2 diabetes. The clinical program evaluated Awiqli® vs. daily basal insulin and the primary endpoint in these trials was change in A1C from baseline.1-5 Awiqli® is approved in the EU, along with 12 additional countries. In addition, regulatory filings have been completed in several other countries, with further regulatory decisions expected in 2025. XX Interesting news from Sequel Med Tech – they've signed an agreement with Arecor to pair the twiist pump with AT278 an ultra-concentrated (500U/mL), ultra-rapid insulin in development. They also have a deal with Medtronic to develop insulin for new pumps. This insulin isn't yet approved, it's 5 times stronger than standard fast acting  it's hoped that a clinical study will begin next year. Arecor says its insulin could potentially be the only option capable of enabling and catalyzing the next generation of longer-wear and miniaturized automated insulin delivery systems.   https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/sequel-arecor-develop-rapid-insulin-twiist/ XX Tandem Diabetes Care announes its t:slim X2™ insulin pump with Control-IQ+ automated insulin delivery (AID) technology is now cleared for use with Eli Lilly and Company's Lyumjev® (insulin lispro-aabc injection) ultra-rapid acting insulin in the United States (U.S.).   – The t:slim X2 insulin pump with Control-IQ+ technology is now cleared for use with Lyumjev for people with type 1 diabetes ages 2 and above and all adults with type 2 diabetes. The companies are continuing to work toward securing Lyumjev compatibility for the Tandem Mobi pump. https://hitconsultant.net/2025/09/29/tandem-diabetes-cares-tslim-x2-pump-cleared-for-use-with-lillys-ultra-rapid-lyumjev-insulin/ XX You can now place your order for the MiniMed™ 780G system with the Instinct sensor, made by Abbott. And if you are already a MiniMed 780G user, you can place an upgrade order today. ​This is a 15 day wear sensor, with no transmitter or overtape required. It looks the same at other Abbot sensors such as the Libre but is proprietary to Medtronic. Shipments are scheduled to start in November.   ​ https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/medtronic-launches-minimed-780g-instinct-abbott/   XX The global type 1 diabetes (T1D) burden continues to increase rapidly driven by rising cases, ageing populations, improved diagnosis and falling death rates. ,   The study estimates that T1D will affect 9.5 million people globally in 2025 (up by 13% since 2021), and this number is predicted to rise to 14.7 million in 2040. However, due to lack of diagnosis and challenges in collecting sufficient data, the actual number of individuals living with T1D is likely much higher, researchers say.   In fact, they estimate that there are an additional 4.1 million 'missing people' who would have been alive in 2025 if they hadn't died prematurely from poor T1D care, including an estimated 669,000 who were not diagnosed. This is particularly true in India, where an estimated 159,000 people thought to have died from missed diagnoses. The study predicts that 513,000 new cases of T1D will be diagnosed worldwide in 2025, of which 43% (222,000) will be people younger than 20 years old. Finland is projected to have the highest incidence of T1D in children aged 0-14 years in 2025 at around 64 cases per 100,000. The substantial increases in T1D forecasts between 2025 and 2040 underscore the urgent need for action. As co-author Renza Scibilia from Breakthrough T1D explains, "Early diagnosis, access to insulin and diabetes supplies, and proper healthcare can bring enormous benefits, with the potential to save millions of lives in the coming decades by ensuring universal access to insulin and improving the rate of diagnosis in all countries."   The authors note some important limitations to their estimates, including that while the analysis uses the best available data, predictions are constrained by the lack of accurate data in most countries-highlighting the urgent need for increased surveillance and research. They also note that data on misdiagnosis and adult populations remain limited, and the analysis assumes constant age-specific incidence and mortality over time. Furthermore, incidence data from the COVID-19 period were excluded from part of the modelling to avoid bias. Future updates are expected to improve as new data become available and applied. https://www.news-medical.net/news/20250919/New-study-warns-of-millions-of-undiagnosed-and-missing-people-with-type-1-diabetes.aspx XX A new study has found that semaglutide — the active ingredient found in some GLP-1 medications prescribed for diabetes and to aid weight loss — may help protect the eyes from diabetic retinopathy. Researchers estimate that as much as 40% of all people with diabetes also have diabetic retinopathy — a potentially blinding eye condition caused by blood vessel damage in the eye's retina. There is currently no cure for diabetic retinopathy. The condition is often managed through injections of anti-VEGF medications into the eye, surgery, and blood sugar monitoring and control. For this lab-based study, researchers used samples of human retinal endothelial cells that were treated with different concentrations of semaglutide. The cells were then placed in a solution with both a high glucose level and high level of oxidative stress — where there is an imbalance of antioxidants and free radicals — for 24 hours.   Past studies show that oxidative stress plays a role in the formation of diabetic retinopathy.   At the study's conclusion, researchers found that the retinal cells treated with semaglutide were twice as likely to survive than cells that were untreated. Additionally, the treated cells were found to have larger stores of energy.   Scientists also found that three markers of diabetic retinopathy were decreased in the semaglutide-treated retinal cells. First, the levels of apoptosis — a form of cell death — decreased from about 50% in untreated cells to about 10% in semaglutide-treated cells. The production of the free radical mitochondrial superoxide decreased from about 90% to about 10% in the treated retinal cells.   Researchers also found the amount of advanced glycation end-products — harmful compounds that can collect in people with diabetes and are known to cause oxidative stress — also decreased substantially.   Lastly, scientists reported that the genes involved in the production of antioxidants were more active in the semaglutide-treated cells when compared to untreated cells. Researchers believe this is a sign that semaglutide may help repair damage to the retinal cells.   “Our study did not find that these drugs harmed the retinal cells in any way — instead, it suggests that GLP1-receptor agonists protect against diabetic retinopathy, particularly in the early stages,” Ioanna Anastasiou, PhD, molecular biologist and postdoctoral researcher at the National and Kapodistrian University in Greece, and lead author of this study, said in a press release.   “Excitingly, these drugs may be able to repair damage that has already been done and so improve sight. Clinical trials are now needed to confirm these protective effects in patients and explore whether GLP-1 receptor agonists can slow, or even halt, the progression of this vision-robbing condition.” https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/ozempic-semaglutide-may-help-protect-against-diabetes-related-blindness-retinopathy   XX Biolinq has received De Novo Classification from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for its lead product, Biolinq Shine, a patch on the forearm that provides real-time glucose feedback through a primary color-coded LED display, visible with or without a phone. This one is tricky – it's called a needle free CGM but it also says it uses micro needles. By the way, De Novo isn't exactly the same as what we think of for FDA approval for medical devices. It's not as rigorous but it's a streamlined route for novel, low to moderate risk devices with no existing equivalent. We'll see how this one turns out. https://www.hmenews.com/article/biolinq-s-multi-function-biosensor-receives-fda-de-novo-classification

We take a closer look at one of the aid projects at the centre of the government's criticised agreement with Somalia, and find out what can be learnt from the failed law on textile recycling. Plus: More people visited Sweden this summer from countries that don't usually come here on holidays. The Swedish tourist board believes it partly is down to the ”coolcation” trend, that includes more than just the weather.

Trump has unveiled a 20-point Gaza Peace Plan alongside Netanyahu — but will it actually lead to peace, or is it just political theater? In this segment from Bro History, Henry and Danny break down the key points: Hostage swaps, prisoner releases, and conditional amnesty for Hamas members The role of a transitional governance board chaired by Trump himself (yes, really) A promise of no forced displacement and a “pathway to self-determination” Aid surges, reconstruction, and Gulf investment in Gaza Netanyahu's double messaging — supportive in English, but flatly rejecting Palestinian statehood in Hebrew We also discuss whether Hamas or Israel could ever realistically agree to this, the parallels to Puerto Rico's unelected financial oversight board, and what Gaza's reconstruction might actually look like. 00:00 Introduction and Overview 00:21 Background Context and Initial Reactions 00:40 Detailed Breakdown of the Gaza Peace Plan 04:24 Discussion on De-radicalization and Redevelopment 07:55 Hostage Release and Prisoner Exchange 16:48 Governance and Transitional Authority 22:37 Financial Oversight and Investment Concerns 29:17 Economic Development Plan for Gaza 31:12 Challenges of Rebuilding Gaza 34:22 International Investment and Political Dynamics 44:18 Hamas and Governance Issues 50:52 Interfaith Dialogue and Peace Efforts 55:41 Prospects for Palestinian Statehood 01:01:41 Conclusion and Final Thoughts #GazaPeacePlan #Trump #IsraelPalestine #Netanyahu #GazaWar #MiddleEastPolitics #Palestine #Israel #PeaceProcess #BroHistoryPodcast Links to our other stuff on the interwebs: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@BroHistory⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://brohistory.substack.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ #337 Learn more about your ad choices.
