GLP-1 减肥药与脱发相关
根据发表在 BMJ 上的一项研究,GLP-1 减肥药相比其它糖尿病药物有更高的脱发风险。研究人员指出,快速减肥和减少卡路里摄入是公认的脱发诱因。研究人员称,多数 GLP-1相关的脱发病例都是可逆的,因为毛囊保持完整。研究人员对比了 GLP-1 和其它两种糖尿病药物 SGLT-2 和 DPP-4,结果显示 GLP-1 的脱发风险比 SGLT-2 高 37%,比 DPP-4 高 68%。研究人员称,脱发通常不会造成身体伤害,但可能会产生心理社会影响,如影响自尊、生活质量和治疗依从性。研究人员认为需要开展进一步研究去深入理解之间的关联。 via Solidot

美国初创公司反对禁止使用中国开放权重模型
近两百家美国科技初创公司组成 Little Tech Association 联盟,联署致函美国总统特朗普、商务部长 Howard Lutnick 等政府高官,呼吁政府不要禁止使用来自中国的开放权重模型。此前由于中国 AI 模型在性能上逼近美国的前沿 AI 模型 Anthropic 的 Fable 5 和 OpenAI 的 GPT-5.6 Sol,美国政府官员表示在考虑封禁中国的 AI 模型。Little Tech Association 的联署信指出,此举会削弱美国初创公司,且并不能阻止开放权重模型扩散。而美国要保持其领先地位需要有世界领先的开放权重模型,确保美国公司能访问其它地方的开放权重模型。 via Solidot
