RESUMO
Sheep milk is rich in fat, protein, vitamins and minerals and is also one of the most important sources of natural bioactives. Several biopeptides in sheep milk have been reported to possess antibacterial, antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties, and they may prevent type 2 diabetes (T2D), disease and cancer. However, the precise mechanism(s) underlying the protective role of sheep milk against T2D development remains unclear. Therefore, in the current study, we investigated the effect of sheep milk on insulin resistance and glucose intolerance in high-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice, by conducting intraperitoneal glucose tolerance tests, metabolic cage studies, genomic sequencing, polymerase chain reaction, and biochemical assays. Hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp-based experiments revealed that mice consuming sheep milk exhibited lower hepatic glucose production than mice in the control group. These findings further elucidate the mechanism by which dietary supplementation with sheep milk alleviates HFD-induced systemic glucose intolerance.

Background: Bronchiectasis is a chronic inflammation of the bronchi with recurrent infections and hemoptysis. The MAGELLAN study compared oral rivaroxaban, 10â mg once daily (QD), for 35 ± 4 days with subcutaneous enoxaparin 40â mg QD for 10 ± 4 days followed by placebo for 25 ± 4 days to prevent venous thromboembolism in patients hospitalized with an acute medical illness. MAGELLAN included a subset of patients with bronchiectasis. In a post hoc analysis, we evaluated the incidence and severity of pulmonary bleeding in patients with bronchiectasis who were hospitalized for an acute medical illness. This analysis included MAGELLAN patients diagnosed with bronchiectasis at baseline. Patients were evaluated by treatment group for International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis major bleeding, non-major clinically relevant (NMCR) bleeding, and the composite of the 2 (ie, clinically relevant bleeding). Results: Medically ill patients with bronchiectasis were randomized to rivaroxaban (n = 60) or enoxaparin/placebo (n = 61). There were 2 fatal pulmonary bleeds and 1 fatal gastrointestinal bleed in the rivaroxaban arm and no fatal or major bleeding in the enoxaparin/placebo arm. The incidence of major bleeding was 5% in the rivaroxaban arm. One NMCR bleed occurred in the rivaroxaban arm and 2 NMCR bleeds occurred in the enoxaparin/placebo arm. The incidence of clinically relevant bleeding was 6.7% versus 3.3% in the rivaroxaban and enoxaparin/placebo groups, respectively (relative risk = 2.06 [95% confidence interval: 0.351-12.046]). Conclusion: In-patients hospitalized with bronchiectasis and an acute medical illness, clinically relevant bleeding, including fatal pulmonary hemorrhage, occurs more frequently with extended rivaroxaban thromboprophylaxis than with enoxaparin followed by placebo.

Patients with renal impairment are at higher risk of thrombosis and bleeding than those with normal renal function. The optimal rivaroxaban dose for thromboprophylaxis in acutely ill medical patients with renal impairment is unknown. MARINER and MAGELLAN were multicenter, randomized clinical trials of rivaroxaban in acutely ill medical patients. Efficacy and safety outcomes in patients with renal impairment in MARINER (7.5 mg once daily) were compared with those in patients with normal renal function in MARINER (10 mg once daily) and in a subpopulation of MAGELLAN that excluded patients at high risk for bleeding at baseline (10 mg once daily). Compared with enoxaparin/placebo in the MAGELLAN subpopulation, the relative risk (RR) of symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE) and VTE-related death with rivaroxaban 10 mg in patients with renal impairment (RR = 0.62; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.27-1.44) was similar to that in those with normal renal function (RR = 0.78; 95% CI 0.44-1.40), while in MARINER, the 7.5 mg dose did not reduce the risk in patients with renal impairment (hazard ratio = 1.00; 95% CI 0.52-1.92). Major bleeding with rivaroxaban 10 mg once daily was higher in patients with renal impairment than in those with normal renal function in MAGELLAN (1.54% vs. 0.98%) and in the MAGELLAN subpopulation (0.94% vs. 0.61%). At a dose of 10 mg once daily, rivaroxaban is effective for thromboprophylaxis in acutely ill medical patients with impaired or normal renal function. The safety of this regimen is enhanced without loss of efficacy by excluding patients at high risk for bleeding, but not by using a reduced-dose strategy. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov identifiers: NCT00571649 for the MAGELLAN trial, NCT02111564 for the MARINER trial.

Acutely ill medical patients are at risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and VTE-related mortality during hospitalization and posthospital discharge, but widespread adoption of extended thromboprophylaxis has not occurred. We analyzed a subpopulation within the MAGELLAN study of extended thromboprophylaxis with rivaroxaban to reevaluate the benefit risk profile. We identified 5 risk factors for major and fatal bleeding after a clinical analysis of the MAGELLAN study and analyzed efficacy and safety with these patients excluded (n = 1551). Risk factors included: active cancer, dual antiplatelet therapy at baseline, bronchiectasis/pulmonary cavitation, gastroduodenal ulcer, or bleeding within 3 months before randomization. We evaluated efficacy, safety, and benefit risk using clinically comparable endpoints in the subpopulation. At day 10, rivaroxaban was noninferior to enoxaparin (relative risk [RR] = 0.82, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.58-1.15) and at day 35 rivaroxaban was significantly better than enoxaparin/placebo (RR = 0.68, 95% CI = 0.53-0.88) in reducing VTE and VTE-related death. Major bleeding was reduced at day 10 (RR = 2.18, 95% CI = 1.07-4.44 vs 1.19, 95% CI = 0.54-2.65) and at day 35 (2.87, 95% CI = 1.60-5.15 vs 1.48, 95% CI = 0.77-2.84) for MAGELLAN versus this subpopulation, respectively. The benefit risk profile was favorable in this subpopulation treated for 35 days, with the number needed to treat ranging from 55 to 481 and number needed to harm from 455 to 1067 for all pairwise evaluations. Five exclusionary criteria defined a subpopulation of acutely ill medical patients with a positive benefit risk profile for in-hospital and extended thromboprophylaxis with rivaroxaban.
