    Lost in translation: Inconvenient truths on the utility of mouse models in Alzheimer’s disease research

    Alberto Granzotto, Bryce Vissel, Stefano L Sensi
    A critical review of the limitations posed by current preclinical animal models of Alzheimer's disease and of the oversimplistic assumptions proposed by the amyloid cascade hypothesis (ACH).

    Nuclear magnetic resonance-based metabolomics with machine learning for predicting progression from prediabetes to diabetes

    Jiang Li, Yuefeng Yu ... Bin Wang
    Lipoprotein particle size and composition, fatty acids, and amino acids were associated with the risk of incident diabetes, and adding the selected metabolites could significantly improve the risk prediction of progression from prediabetes to diabetes beyond the conventional clinical variables.

    Reliance on self-reports and estimated food composition data in nutrition research introduces significant bias that can only be addressed with biomarkers

    Javier I Ottaviani, Virag Sagi-Kiss ... Gunter GC Kuhnle
    The reliance on food composition databases for the assessment of dietary intake is unreliable and results in a large bias when investigating the associations between diet and disease risk.
