Chung JO, Park SY, Kim BN, Cho DH, Chung DJ, Chung MY. Association of urinary creatinine excretion and body mass index with diabetic retinopathy in patients with type 2 diabetes. Sci Rep 2024; 14:17175. [PMID: 39060447 PMCID: PMC11282218 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-68220-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2023] [Accepted: 07/22/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to determine whether urinary creatinine excretion rate (CER), a marker of muscle mass, is associated with diabetic retinopathy in individuals with type 2 diabetes and to ascertain whether this putative association depends on body mass index (BMI). This cross sectional study evaluated 2035 individuals with type 2 diabetes. Twenty-four-hour urine was collected. Individuals with diabetic retinopathy had lower CER and BMI values than those without. Patients in higher CER quartiles had higher BMI values and a lower prevalence of diabetic retinopathy. A significant relationship between CER and diabetic retinopathy persisted, even after adjusting for traditional risk factors, including glycated hemoglobin, diabetes duration, and hypertension, in multivariable analysis. Further adjustment for BMI did not significantly alter the association between CER and diabetic retinopathy. This study suggests that CER is inversely associated with diabetic retinopathy in individuals with type 2 diabetes, and this association is independent of BMI.

Ding Y, Lv S, Xie R, Ye W, Luo Y, Li Y. Association of weight-adjusted waist index and diabetic kidney disease in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Endocr Connect 2024; 13:e230491. [PMID: 38300811 PMCID: PMC10959041 DOI: 10.1530/ec-23-0491] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 02/01/2023] [Indexed: 02/03/2024]
Abstract
Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between weight-adjusted-waist index (WWI) and diabetic kidney disease in individuals afflicted with type 2 diabetes. Methods Comprehensive data were ascertained from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in 2013-March 2020. Weighted univariate, multivariate logistic regression models, subgroup analyses and tests for interaction were performed. Additionally, we employed smooth curve fitting to assess linear correlations and the threshold effects were calculated by applying a binary linear regression model. Breakpoints are identified by a model with maximum likelihood ratio and a two-step recursive approach. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) along with the area under the curve (AUC) value predict the capability of WWI and body mass index for diabetic kidney disease. Results A total of 10,661 individuals diagnosed with type 2 diabetes were included, and the overall prevalence of diabetic kidney disease was 20.74%. WWI exhibited a positive correlation with the likelihood of diabetic kidney disease in type 2 diabetes patients (OR: 1.17, 95% CI: 1.03-1.33). The results of subgroup analysis showed significant interaction for gender (P < 0.05). Among female patients, U-shaped correlations were observed with a breakpoint at 11.48. Additionally, weight-adjusted waist index (AUC = 0.664) proved to be a more effective predictor of diabetic kidney disease compared to body mass index (AUC = 0.555). Conclusion In patients with type 2 diabetes, increased weight-adjusted-waist index is implicated with an increased risk of diabetic kidney disease. WWI can be used as a new anthropometric index to predict diabetic kidney disease, and its predictive ability is stronger than body mass index.

Abstract
In recent decades, there has been a steady increase in the number of patients with non-communicable chronic diseases in developed economic countries, which include all nosologies of metabolic syndrome and chronic inflammatory diseases. To date, there is no doubt that pro-inflammatory pathogenetic mechanisms and changes in intestinal microbiocenosis associated with obesity are promoters of many non-communicable diseases. The “Westernized” style of nutrition influences the intraspecific qualitative and quantitative diversity of the intestinal microbiome, leading to a change in the permeability of the intestinal barrier and triggering an immune response. Recent studies show that about 15-40 % of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are obese, and another 20-40 % are overweight. The coexistence of inflammation, obesity and metabolic syndrome in patients with ulcerative colitis is becoming more and more frequent, meanwhile, there is a discrepancy between the severity of the disease and weight indicators, which may be unchanged and even exceed the norm. The effects associated with sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity negatively affect the quality of life of patients with ulcerative colitis and long-term results. Sarcopenia acts as an independent predictor of surgical interventions in patients with IBD, is associated with high activity of the disease and with a higher frequency of postoperative complications, and is also a marker of the need for escalation of therapy. The general mechanisms of development indicate that the management of these conditions should be considered in a complex.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Obesity has been identified as a significant risk factor for several chronic conditions, including diabetes, tumours and cardiovascular disease, and has been associated with increased mortality rates. Despite the well-established clinical practice of electroacupuncture (EA) as a potential treatment option for obesity, its efficacy remains questionable, primarily due to the paucity of empirical evidence supporting its therapeutic benefits. METHODS AND ANALYSIS The present study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of EA for weight loss in obese individuals with pre-diabetes, using a randomised, placebo-controlled clinical trial design. A total of 256 eligible patients will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: EA (comprising EA treatment with health education) or superficial acupuncture (SA) (comprising SA treatment with health education). The intervention will be administered three times per week for the initial 12 weeks, two times per week for the subsequent 8 weeks and one time per week for the final 4 weeks, with a 24-week follow-up period. The primary outcome measure will be the percentage of patients who achieve a reduction of 10% or more in their body weight at week 24. Secondary outcome measures will include changes in body weight and body mass index, blood test results, data collected by the body composition analyser, size of adipose tissue scanned by MRI of the abdomen and the Impact of Weight on Quality of Life, the 21-item Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire-Revised and the Food Craving Questionnaire-Trait. The Treatment Emergent Symptom Scale will be employed to monitor every adverse reaction from baseline to follow-up. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This trial has received ethical clearance from the Ethics Committee of Shanghai Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine under the registration number 2021SHL-KY-74. All participants will provide their written informed consent prior to their enrolment. The findings of this investigation will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications and scholarly conferences. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT05237089.

Abstract
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a significant healthcare burden worldwide that substantially increases the risk of kidney failure and cardiovascular events. To reduce the prevalence of DKD, extensive research is being conducted to determine the risk factors and consequently implement early interventions. Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are more likely to be obese. Abdominal adiposity is associated with a greater risk of kidney damage than general obesity. Abdominal adipose tissue can be divided into different fat depots according to the location and function, including visceral adipose tissue (VAT), subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), perirenal adipose tissue (PAT), and renal sinus adipose tissue (RSAT), which can be accurately measured by radiology techniques, such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Abdominal fat depots may affect the development of DKD through different mechanisms, and radiologic abdominal adipose characteristics may serve as imaging indicators of DKD risk. This review will first describe the CT/MRI-based assessment of abdominal adipose depots and subsequently describe the current studies on abdominal adipose tissue and DKD development, as well as the underlying mechanisms in patients of T2DM with DKD.

Surg Obes Relat Dis 2023; 19:1346-1354. [PMID: 37573156 DOI: 10.1016/j.soard.2023.06.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2022] [Revised: 03/25/2023] [Accepted: 06/30/2023] [Indexed: 08/14/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although bariatric surgery (BS) is recommended for patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and moderate to severe obesity, only approximately 2% of patients undergo surgery. OBJECTIVE To compare the knowledge and perception of BS with that of other treatments for diabetes among patients with diabetes. SETTING French social media platforms. METHODS A self-administered questionnaire was distributed from May 13 to June 3, 2020, via different French social media, including patients with T2D (main target), and patients with type 1 diabetes (control population). Different profiles of reluctance to BS were identified using a factorial analysis. RESULTS Of the 4481 responders (50.4% women, 33.9% aged over 65), 60% had T2D. Of the 1736 patients who had heard of BS (38.7%), 1493 declared they never addressed it with their physician. Among T2D patients, BS is the treatment that elicits the most negative response, with more than 10% showing reluctance. Four reluctance profiles were identified: (1) cluster 1 (43.4%), fear of consequences on their eating habits and irreversibility of the procedure; (2) cluster 2 (34.9%), fear of poorer diabetes control; (3) cluster 3 (9.3%), fear of surgical risk; and (4) cluster 4 (12.4%), fear of side effects. In all clusters, the opinion of their physician would be the most important factor to change their mind. CONCLUSION Bariatric surgery for T2D is rarely addressed in routine medical visits. Fear of operative risks and irreversibility of the procedure largely explains the reluctance to BS. Information and education campaigns on the benefit of metabolic surgery for patients with T2D remain necessary.

Abstract
Objective To screen for predictive obesity factors in overweight populations using an optimal and interpretable machine learning algorithm. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted between June 2011 and January 2012. The participants were randomly selected using a simple random sampling technique. Seven commonly used machine learning methods were employed to construct obesity risk prediction models. A total of 5,236 Chinese participants from Ningde City, Fujian Province, Southeast China, participated in this study. The best model was selected through appropriate verification and validation and suitably explained. Subsequently, a minimal set of significant predictors was identified. The Shapley additive explanation force plot was used to illustrate the model at the individual level. Results Machine learning models for predicting obesity have demonstrated strong performance, with CatBoost emerging as the most effective in both model validity and net clinical benefit. Specifically, the CatBoost algorithm yielded the highest scores, registering 0.91 in the training set and an impressive 0.83 in the test set. This was further corroborated by the area under the curve (AUC) metrics, where CatBoost achieved 0.95 for the training set and 0.87 for the test set. In a rigorous five-fold cross-validation, the AUC for the CatBoost model ranged between 0.84 and 0.91, with an average AUC of ROC at 0.87 ± 0.022. Key predictors identified within these models included waist circumference, hip circumference, female gender, and systolic blood pressure. Conclusion CatBoost may be the best machine learning method for prediction. Combining Shapley's additive explanation and machine learning methods can be effective in identifying disease risk factors for prevention and control.

Association of BMI and waist circumference with diabetic microvascular complications: A prospective cohort study from the UK Biobank and Mendelian randomization analysis. Diabetes Res Clin Pract 2023; 205:110975. [PMID: 37884062 DOI: 10.1016/j.diabres.2023.110975] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2023] [Revised: 10/11/2023] [Accepted: 10/23/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023]
Abstract
AIMS To investigate the precise association between BMI and waist circumference (WC) and diabetic complications, including retinopathy (DR), nephropathy (DN) and peripheral neuropathy (DPN). METHODS A multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazard model was used to evaluate the observed association from 30,541 UK Biobank participants with diabetes. A two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) framework was applied to summary-level GWASs of BMI and WC comprising a total of 461,460 and 462,166 participants from UK Biobank to explore the potential causal association. RESULTS Higher BMI and WC were associated with increased risks of DR, DN, and DPN (HR (95% CI), per-SD increase: BMI: DR 1.09 (1.04-1.13), DN 1.37 (1.33-1.41), DPN 1.27 (1.20-1.34); WC: DR 1.11 (1.07-1.16), DN 1.41 (1.36-1.46), DPN 1.38 (1.30-1.45)) in the UK Biobank cohort. Univariate MR indicated that increased BMI and WC were causal risk factors for these complications (OR (95% CI), per-SD increase: BMI: DR 1.33 (1.22-1.45), DN 1.74 (1.47-2.07), DPN 2.20 (1.67-2.90); WC: DR 1.43 (1.27-1.61), DN 2.03 (1.62-2.55), DPN 2.80 (1.99-3.92)), and the effect sizes remained significant after adjustment for glycated hemoglobin. CONCLUSIONS Prospective observational and MR analyses provided evidence that high BMI and WC may represent potential causal risk factors for diabetic microvascular complications. Weight control might modify the risks of these complications independently of glycemic control and should be considered as a therapeutic recommendation.

Abstract
Conventional therapies for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), including CPAP and oral appliances, offer the best opportunity for symptomatic improvement and reduction in OSA overall health impact. Integrative medicine brings conventional and complementary approaches together in a coordinated way. With rising obesity rates, weight loss and lifestyle programs seem to be the most favorable integrative methods to combine with conventional OSA therapies. Complementary and integrative approaches to OSA management are varied and, in conjunction with conventional methods, may offer some reduction in the apnea-hypopnea index.

Abstract
The incidence and prevalence of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) is growing in parallel with the obesity pandemic. The geography of the distribution of obesity and IBD on the planet have common features. In recent years, there has been information about the epidemiological interaction of predisposing factors to obesity and ulcerative colitis (UC). The aim of the study was to assess the prevalence of overweight and obesity in patients with UC in the Western Siberia region. Materials and methods: a case-control study of 165 ulcerative colitis was conducted in 56 healthy volunteers of comparable gender and age. Body mass index (BMI) was calculated using the formula: weight (kg)/weight (m2). Results: only in 7.9% of patients with UC BMI corresponded to a lack of body weight, in 48% BMI within normal parameters, in 43% of cases BMI corresponded to overweight and obesity. At the same time, the average values and median BMI in UC patients with acute and chronic course of the disease are close to the upper values of normal values. There are no gender differences in BMI compared to the control group. The BMI of patients with severe attack is significantly less than the BMI of patients with moderate attack. Hormonal dependence and resistance, the use of GIBP did not have a significant effect on the BMI of UC patients. In patients with UC, when compared with the control group, there are significantly more patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, there was no significant relationship between the severity of the current attack among UC patients and the presence of type 2 diabetes mellitus in them. When comparing the group of patients with UC with the control group, there were no significant differences in the frequency of occurrence of NAFLD, cholelithiasis, coronary heart disease, arterial hypertension, while in patients with continuously recurrent UC, liver damage characteristic of NAFLD is significantly more common.

Endocr Pract 2023; 29:417-427. [PMID: 37140524 DOI: 10.1016/j.eprac.2023.03.272] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2023] [Revised: 03/17/2023] [Accepted: 03/18/2023] [Indexed: 05/05/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To focus on the intersection of perception, diagnosis, stigma, and weight bias in the management of obesity and obtain consensus on actionable steps to improve care provided for persons with obesity. METHODS The American Association of Clinical Endocrinology (AACE) convened a consensus conference of interdisciplinary health care professionals to discuss the interplay between the diagnosis of obesity using adiposity-based chronic disease (ABCD) nomenclature and staging, weight stigma, and internalized weight bias (IWB) with development of actionable guidance to aid clinicians in mitigating IWB and stigma in that context. RESULTS The following affirmed and emergent concepts were proposed: (1) obesity is ABCD, and these terms can be used in differing ways to communicate; (2) classification categories of obesity should have improved nomenclature across the spectrum of body mass index (BMI) using ethnic-specific BMI ranges and waist circumference (WC); (3) staging the clinical severity of obesity based on the presence and severity of ABCD complications may reduce weight-centric contribution to weight stigma and IWB; (4) weight stigma and internalized bias are both drivers and complications of ABCD and can impair quality of life, predispose to psychological disorders, and compromise the effectiveness of therapeutic interventions; (5) the presence and of stigmatization and IWB should be assessed in all patients and be incorporated into the staging of ABCD severity; and (6) optimal care will necessitate increased awareness and the development of educational and interventional tools for health care professionals that address IWB and stigma. CONCLUSIONS The consensus panel has proposed an approach for integrating bias and stigmatization, psychological health, and social determinants of health in a staging system for ABCD severity as an aid to patient management. To effectively address stigma and IWB within a chronic care model for patients with obesity, there is a need for health care systems that are prepared to provide evidence-based, person-centered treatments; patients who understand that obesity is a chronic disease and are empowered to seek care and participate in behavioral therapy; and societies that promote policies and infrastructure for bias-free compassionate care, access to evidence-based interventions, and disease prevention.

Abstract
To retrospectively investigate the imaging features and the related influencing factors of peripheral interstitial lung abnormalities (PILA) that caused "normal aging" by low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) in an nonsmoking, asymptomatic Chinese urban cohort. The clinical data of 733 subjects who underwent chest LDCT were retrospectively collected. The computed tomography (CT) signs of PILA (interlobular septal thickening [ILST], intralobular interstitial thickening [ILIT], ground-glass opacity [GGO], reticular shadow [RS], subpleural line [SL]) were evaluated at 6 levels and statistically analyzed. The effects of age, sex, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure (BP), and blood biochemistry parameters on ILST, ILIT, and RS were analyzed by Binary Logistic regression analysis. Significant age differences in PILA were found. None of the 5 PILA CT signs (GGO, ILST, ILIT, RS, and SL) was observed in subjects under 40 years old, while in subjects over 40 years old, the incidence of PILA increased with age. All 5 CT signs of PILA were significantly different among the subjects aged 18 to 49, 50 to 69, and 70 to 79 (P < .05). There was no significant sex difference in PILA. Among age, sex, BMI, BP, and laboratory biochemistry parameters, only age had a significant effect on ILST, ILIT, and RS. LDCT can be used as a noninvasive method to evaluate the PILA. PILA were mainly affected by age, while sex, BMI, BP, and laboratory biochemistry parameters had little effect on PILA. PILA observed before the age of 40 years should be considered an abnormal finding, whereas it is common in individuals over 70.

Abstract
Background and purposeIn recent years, the incidence of obesity in people aged 60 and over has increased significantly, and abdominal obesity has been recognized as an independent risk factor for diabetes. Aging causes physiologic decline in multiple body systems, leading to changes in obesity indicators such as BMI. At present, the relationship between abdominal obesity markers and Diabetes mellitus (DM) in people aged 60 years and older remains unclear. Therefore, it is necessary to study the correlation between anthropometric indices and diabetes and explore potential predictors.MethodsThe basic demographic information of participants aged 60 and above in Zhongshan City in 2020 was collected. Physical parameters, blood glucose and other biochemical indices were measured comprehensively. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to explore the relationship between abdominal obesity indicators [Waist circumference, Neck Circumference, Waist-to-hip ratio, Chinese Visceral Obesity Index (CVAI), and visceral obesity index] and diabetes mellitus. ROC characteristic curve was used to analyze the predictive ability of abdominal obesity indicators to DM, and the non-restrictive cubic spline graph was used to visualize the screened obesity indicators and diabetes risk.ResultsAmong 9,519 participants, the prevalence of diabetes was 15.5%. Compared with low CVAI, High CVAI level was significantly associated with increased prevalence of DM in males and females (all p < 0.05), in males (OR, 2.226; 95%CI: 1.128–4.395), females (OR, 1.645; 95%CI: 1.013–2.669). After adjusting for potential confounding factors, there were gender differences between neck circumference and the prevalence of DM, and above-normal neck circumference in males was significantly associated with increased prevalence of DM (OR, 1.381; 95% CI: 1.091–1.747) (p < 0.05).ConclusionAmong these anthropometric indices, CVAI is consistent with the features of fat distribution in older individuals and shows superior discriminative power as a potential predictor of DM, compared to traditional anthropometric parameters.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Eating disorders (EDs) are mental illnesses impacting all aspects of an individual's life. Recent research has examined EDs and disordered-eating behaviors in the military, a population subject to body composition standards, fitness requirements, and extreme stress. The purpose of this narrative review was to investigate ED and disordered-eating prevalence and their risk factors in ROTC (reserve officers' training corps), active-duty, and veteran servicemembers. The secondary purpose was to provide policy recommendations to reduce the burden of these conditions in the military. METHODS PubMed and PsycINFO were reviewed for relevant articles. All studies including data on EDs or disordered eating in U.S. active-duty, ROTC, or veteran populations were considered. RESULTS Results revealed a high burden of EDs and disordered eating with bulimic- and binge-type behaviors being the most common. Servicemembers exposed to trauma, including military sexual assault, and those with comorbidities like PTSD showed a higher prevalence. Body composition and fitness testing were also associated with a higher risk. Qualitative studies suggest these conditions serve as coping mechanisms for aspects of military life. CONCLUSIONS The high prevalence of EDs and disordered eating in the military points toward the importance of identification, treatment, and prevention. Policy change is necessary to protect servicemembers.

Abstract
Today, metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) and metabolically unhealthy obesity (MUO) are distinguished. Adipose and muscle tissues can determine the obese phenotype due to adipokine and myokine production. Gut microbial community is also involved in MHO. The study was aimed to reveal the features of adipokine and myokine levels and their association with the gut microbiome alpha diversity in patients with MHO and MUO. A total of 265 subjects were divided into two groups: healthy individuals and obese patients. The latter were divided into two subgroups: patients with MHO and patients with MUO. Body mass index, waist circumference, HOMA-IR, adipokine and myokine levels, gut microbiome taxonomic composition, alpha diversity indices were defined in all the surveyed individuals, lipid and carbohydrate metabolism was also assessed. Significant differences in the adipokine and myokine levels and their association with the gut microbiome diversity indicators were revealed in patients with different obese phenotypes. Patients with MHO and MUO showed significantly lower adiponectin levels (р < 0.05) and significantly higher leptin and asprosin levels (р < 0.05) than healthy individuals. Patients with MUO had lower adiponectin and leptin levels (p < 0.05) than patients with MHO. Significantly higher FGF21 levels were observed in patients with MUO. Large-scale correlation analysis revealed the relationship between the glucose levels and the gut microbiome diversity indices that was missing in patients with MUO. This indicated the loss of the microbiota diversity effects on the blood glucose control in individuals with MUO, as well as different regulatory roles in the gut microbiome‒liver‒muscle/adipose tissue axes of individuals with MHO and MUO played by gut microbiota. The findings show the relationship between the gut microbiome diversity and the obese phenotype.

Abstract
Background Diabetic microvascular complications mainly include diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and diabetic retinopathy (DR). Obesity was recognized as a risk factor for DKD, while the reported relationship between obesity and DR was inconsistent. Moreover, whether the associations can be attributed to C-peptide levels is unknown. Methods Data from 1142 sequential inpatients with T2DM at Xiangyang Central Hospital between June 2019 and March 2022 were extracted retrospectively from the electronic medical record system. The associations between four obesity indices (body mass index (BMI), waist-hip circumference ratio (WHR), visceral fat tissue area (VFA), and subcutaneous fat tissue area (SFA)) and DKD and DR were evaluated. Whether the associations can be attributed to C-peptide levels was also explored. Results Obesity was a risk factor for DKD after adjusting for sex, HbA1c, TG, TC, HDL, LDL, smoking history, education, duration of diabetes, and insulin use (obesity indices: BMI (OR 1.050: 95% CI: 1.008-1.094; P = 0.020); WHR (OR 10.97; 95% CI: 1.250-92.267; P = 0.031); VFA (OR 1.005; 95% CI: 1.001-1.008; P = 0.008)), but it became insignificant after further adjusting for fasting C-peptide. The associations between BMI, WHR, VFA, and DKD might be U-shaped. Obesity and FCP tended to protect against DR; however, they became insignificant after adjusting for multiple potential confounders. C2/C0 (the ratio of the postprandial serum C-peptide to fasting C-peptide) was a protective factor for both DKD (OR 0.894, 95% CI: 0.833-0.959, P < 0.05) and DR (OR 0.851, 95% CI: 0.787-0.919; P < 0.05). Conclusions Obesity was a risk factor for DKD, and the effect may be attributable to C-peptide, which represents insulin resistance. The protective effect of obesity or C-peptide on DR was not independent and could be confounded by multiple factors. Higher C2/C0 was associated with both decreased DKD and DR.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Excess weight is a major health problem. Aims of this study were to determine the prevalence rates of overweight and obesity, and to compare their associations with cardiometabolic and renal risk factors between obese and non-obese populations, and between overweight and non-overweight populations. METHODS Cross-sectional observational study conducted in Primary Care. Population-based random sample: 6,588 study subjects between 18 and 102 years of age (response rate: 66%). Crude and sex- and age-adjusted prevalence rates of overweight and obesity were calculated, and their associations with cardiometabolic and renal variables were assessed by bivariate and multivariate analysis. RESULTS The age- and sex-adjusted prevalence rates of overweight and obesity were 36.0% (42.1% in men; 33.1% in women) and 25.0% (26.2% in men; 24.5% in women), respectively. These prevalences increased with age, and were higher in men than in women. Fifty-two percent (95%CI: 50.0-53.9) of the overweight population and 62.3% (95%CI: 60.1-64.5) of the obese population had a high or very high cardiovascular risk. Abdominal obesity, physical inactivity, prediabetes, hypertension, hypertriglyceridemia, and low HDL-C were independently associated with both entities. Furthermore, diabetes was independently associated with overweight and hypercholesterolemia with obesity. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of overweight and obesity was 61.0% (68.4% in men and 59.0% in women). More than half of the overweight population and nearly two-thirds of the obese population had a high cardiovascular risk. Hyperglycemia, physical inactivity, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, low HDL-C, and hypertriglyceridemia were independently associated with overweight and obesity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this clinical practice guideline is to provide updated and new evidence-based recommendations for the comprehensive care of persons with diabetes mellitus to clinicians, diabetes-care teams, other health care professionals and stakeholders, and individuals with diabetes and their caregivers. METHODS The American Association of Clinical Endocrinology selected a task force of medical experts and staff who updated and assessed clinical questions and recommendations from the prior 2015 version of this guideline and conducted literature searches for relevant scientific papers published from January 1, 2015, through May 15, 2022. Selected studies from results of literature searches composed the evidence base to update 2015 recommendations as well as to develop new recommendations based on review of clinical evidence, current practice, expertise, and consensus, according to established American Association of Clinical Endocrinology protocol for guideline development. RESULTS This guideline includes 170 updated and new evidence-based clinical practice recommendations for the comprehensive care of persons with diabetes. Recommendations are divided into four sections: (1) screening, diagnosis, glycemic targets, and glycemic monitoring; (2) comorbidities and complications, including obesity and management with lifestyle, nutrition, and bariatric surgery, hypertension, dyslipidemia, retinopathy, neuropathy, diabetic kidney disease, and cardiovascular disease; (3) management of prediabetes, type 2 diabetes with antihyperglycemic pharmacotherapy and glycemic targets, type 1 diabetes with insulin therapy, hypoglycemia, hospitalized persons, and women with diabetes in pregnancy; (4) education and new topics regarding diabetes and infertility, nutritional supplements, secondary diabetes, social determinants of health, and virtual care, as well as updated recommendations on cancer risk, nonpharmacologic components of pediatric care plans, depression, education and team approach, occupational risk, role of sleep medicine, and vaccinations in persons with diabetes. CONCLUSIONS This updated clinical practice guideline provides evidence-based recommendations to assist with person-centered, team-based clinical decision-making to improve the care of persons with diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Conventional therapies for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), including CPAP and oral appliances, offer the best opportunity for symptomatic improvement and reduction in OSA overall health impact. Integrative medicine brings conventional and complementary approaches together in a coordinated way. With rising obesity rates, weight loss and lifestyle programs seem to be the most favorable integrative methods to combine with conventional OSA therapies. Complementary and integrative approaches to OSA management are varied and, in conjunction with conventional methods, may offer some reduction in the apnea-hypopnea index.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Prediabetes is a major public health problem. The aims of the SIMETAP-PRED study were to determine the prevalence rates of prediabetes according to two diagnostic criteria, and to compare the association of cardiometabolic and renal risk factors between populations with and without prediabetes. METHODS Cross-sectional observational study conducted in Primary Care. Based random sample: 6,588 study subjects (response rate: 66%). Two diagnostic criteria for prediabetes were used: 1) prediabetes according to the Spanish Diabetes Society (PRED-SDS): Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) 110-125mg/dL or HbA1c 6.0% -6.4%; 2) prediabetes according to the American Diabetes Association (PRED-ADA): FPG 100-125mg/dL or HbA1c 5.7%-6.4%. The crude and sex- and age-adjusted prevalence rates, and cardiometabolic and renal variables associated with prediabetes were assessed. RESULTS The crude prevalence rates of PRED-SDS and PRED-ADA were 7.9% (95% CI 7.3-8.6%), and 22.0% (95% CI 21.0-23.0%) respectively, their age-adjusted prevalence rates were 6.6% and 19.1 respectively. The high or very high cardiovascular risk of the PRED-SDS or PRED-ADA populations were 68.6% (95%CI 64.5-72.6%) and 61.7% (95%CI 59.1-64.1%) respectively. Hypertension, hypertriglyceridemia, overweight, obesity, and increased waist-to-height ratio were independently associated with PRED-SDS. In addition to these factors, low glomerular filtration rate and hypercholesterolemia were also independently associated with PRED-ADA. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of PRED-ADA triples that of PRED-SDS. Two thirds of the population with prediabetes had a high cardiovascular risk. Several cardiometabolic and renal risk factors were associated with prediabetes. Compared to the SDS criteria, the ADA criteria make the diagnosis of prediabetes easier.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To provide evidence-based recommendations regarding the diagnosis and management of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) to endocrinologists, primary care clinicians, health care professionals, and other stakeholders. METHODS The American Association of Clinical Endocrinology conducted literature searches for relevant articles published from January 1, 2010, to November 15, 2021. A task force of medical experts developed evidence-based guideline recommendations based on a review of clinical evidence, expertise, and informal consensus, according to established American Association of Clinical Endocrinology protocol for guideline development. RECOMMENDATION SUMMARY This guideline includes 34 evidence-based clinical practice recommendations for the diagnosis and management of persons with NAFLD and/or NASH and contains 385 citations that inform the evidence base. CONCLUSION NAFLD is a major public health problem that will only worsen in the future, as it is closely linked to the epidemics of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Given this link, endocrinologists and primary care physicians are in an ideal position to identify persons at risk on to prevent the development of cirrhosis and comorbidities. While no U.S. Food and Drug Administration-approved medications to treat NAFLD are currently available, management can include lifestyle changes that promote an energy deficit leading to weight loss; consideration of weight loss medications, particularly glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists; and bariatric surgery, for persons who have obesity, as well as some diabetes medications, such as pioglitazone and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists, for those with type 2 diabetes mellitus and NASH. Management should also promote cardiometabolic health and reduce the increased cardiovascular risk associated with this complex disease.

Association of weight-adjusted-waist index with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in China: A prospective cohort study. Nutr Metab Cardiovasc Dis 2022; 32:1210-1217. [PMID: 35277327 DOI: 10.1016/j.numecd.2022.01.033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 42] [Impact Index Per Article: 21.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2021] [Revised: 01/08/2022] [Accepted: 01/28/2022] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS As a new simple anthropometric index, the weight-adjusted-waist index (WWI) appears to be superior to body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) in assessing both muscle and fat mass. We aimed to explore the association of WWI with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in southern China. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 12,447 participants (mean age, 59.0 ± 13.3 years; 40.6% men) in Jiangxi Province from the China Hypertension Survey study were included. WWI was defined as WC divided by the square root of weight. The outcome was all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. During a median follow-up of 5.6 years, 838 all-cause deaths occurred, with 390 cardiovascular deaths. Overall, there was a nonlinear positive relationship of WWI with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Accordingly, compared with participants in quartiles 1-3 (<11.2 cm/√kg), a significant higher risk of all-cause mortality (HR: 1.36, 95% CI: 1.17, 1.58) and cardiovascular mortality (HR: 1.43, 95% CI: 1.15, 1.77) were found in quartile 4 (≥11.2 cm/√kg). Further adjustment for BMI and WC did not substantially alter the results. No significant interactions were found in any of the subgroups (sex, age, area, physical activity, current smoking, current alcohol drinking, hypertension, and stroke). CONCLUSION Higher WWI levels (≥11.2 cm/√kg) were associated with increased the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in southern China. These findings, if confirmed by further studies, suggested that WWI may serve as a simple and effective anthropometric index in clinical practice.

Abstract
In treating obesity as a chronic disease, the essential goal of weight loss therapy is not the quantity of weight loss as an end unto itself but rather the prevention and treatment of complications to enhance health and mitigate morbidity and mortality. This perspective on obesity care is consistent with the complications-centric American Association of Clinical Endocrinology (AACE) obesity guidelines and the diagnostic term of adiposity-based chronic disease (ABCD). Many complications require 10% to 20% weight loss to achieve therapeutic goals; however, existing obesity medications fail to produce ≥10% weight loss in the majority of patients. In June, 2021, semaglutide 2.4 mg/week was approved for chronic weight management. Phase 3 clinical trials demonstrated that this medication produced > 10% placebo-subtracted weight loss, more than half of patents lost ≥15%, and over one third lost ≥20% of baseline weight. This essentially doubles effectiveness over existing obesity medications, provides sufficient weight loss to ameliorate a broad range of complications, and qualifies as the first member of a second-generation class of obesity medications. The advent of second-generation medications fully enables a treat-to-target approach for management of ABCD as a chronic disease. Specifically, with this degree of efficacy, second-generation medications permit active management of body weight as a biomarker to targets associated with effective treatment and prevention of specific complications. ABCD can now be managed similar to other chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and atherosclerosis, which are treated to biomarker targets that can be modified based on the clinical status of individual patients [ie, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), blood pressure, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c)] to prevent the respective complications of these diseases.

Abstract
Aim. To study the effect of body mass index (BMI) on the 3-year prognosis of patients after myocardial infarction (MI).Material and methods. The study is based on data from a 3-year observation of patients with MI from the Kemerovo registry of acute coronary syndrome (n=1366). The characteristics of patients with MI, distributed by the BMI, were determined, the outcomes were analyzed, the risk factors and predictors for the vascular events and mortality were identified.Results. Obesity was detected in 32.2% people with MI (I degree – 22.3%; II – 7.7%; III – 2.3%), lack of BMI at 0.5%, normal BMI at 20.5%, overweight at 46.9%. Patients with different BMI showed a comparable incidence of recurring MI. In patients with normal BMI, when compared with patients with obesity, unstable angina pectoris (UA), heart failure (HF) and strokes developed often. In patients with normal BMI compared with obese patients, fewer deaths from all causes were recorded within 3 years after MI. A similar pattern with respect to the group with normal BMI in terms of high overall mortality was obtained among patients with overweight who had a lower UA. Patients with obesity was favorable in relation to the development of HF, strokes and overall mortality than patients with overweight. Differences in the 3-year outcomes in the group of patients with MI and underweight were not found when compared with patients with normal and overweight, however, they had a higher of strokes compared with patients with obesity. At patients with I degree obesity within 3 years after MI UA, HF, strokes were less. Patients with III degree obesity, the maximum frequency of total mortality was recorded. The development of death from all causes during the observation period in patients with MI and obesity was associated with: male, smoking, multivessel arterial diseases, non-endovascular reperfusion, acute HF with MI, history of vascular events and angina pectoris; whereas with overweight: multifocal atherosclerosis and arterial hypertension; with a deficit of BMI: non-reperfusion; with normal BMI: heredity for cardiovascular diseases, dyslipidemia and atrial fibrillation.Conclusion. 3 years after MI patients with obesity of the I degree are less likely than patients with obesity of II-III deaths from all causes are recorded; these patients are less likely than patients with normal weight to develop strokes, HF, UA. Thus, patients with MI and the presence of I degree obesity are characterized by better survival during 3 years of observation.

Abstract
Purpose Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is the commonest bariatric procedure worldwide but there is also a high conversion rate mainly due to weight regain and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) reported in studies with long-term follow-up. The aim of this study is to highlight benefits and limitations of converting SG patients to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB). Setting Retrospective cross-sectional-study, medical university clinic setting. Methods This study includes all patients converted from primary SG to RYGB or OAGB by 12/2018 at the Medical University of Vienna. Patients were examined using gastroscopy, esophageal manometry, 24-h pH-metry, and questionnaires. Results Fifty-eight patients were converted from SG to RYGB (n = 45) or OAGB (n = 13). Total weight loss of patients converted to RYGB and OAGB was 41.5% and 44.8%, respectively, at nadir. Six patients had Barrett’s esophagus (BE) after SG. In four out of these six patients, a complete remission of BE after conversion to RYGB was observed; nevertheless, two patients after RYGB and one after OABG newly developed BE. Clinical GERD improved at a higher rate after RYGB than after OAGB. Both revisional procedures improved associated medical problems. Conclusion Conversion to RYGB is probably the best option for patients with GERD after SG. OAGB has shown a low potential to cure patients from GERD symptoms after SG. In terms of additional weight loss and remission of associated medical problems, both procedures studied were equal. Surveillance gastroscopies every 5 years after SG revisions are recommended.

Abstract
Adiposity-Based Chronic Disease (ABCD) is a chronic disease and requires life-long treatment and follow-up. Obesity protects obesity through altered regulation of caloric intake and set point mechanisms that maintains a high equilibrium body weight. Lifestyle interventions and obesity medications do not permanently alter the set point which often makes weight loss achieved by lifestyle short-lived and operates to drive weight regain once medications are discontinued. Bariatric surgery procedures can alter appetite and lower the "set point" for equilibrium body weight via unknown mechanisms. However, few patients attain ideal body weight following surgery, many regain weight, and all require long-term follow-up for the disease. The excess adiposity of ABCD gives rise to complications that impair health and confer morbidity and mortality; however, the genetic risks and potential interactions between genes and environment that give rise to complications also cannot be eliminated. The equilibrium body weight around which set point mechanisms operate can be modified by environment, which underscores the importance of a less obesogenic environment for prevention and treatment of ABCD on a population basis. If ABCD will eventually be curable, this will depend on a clear understanding of the molecular mechanisms that determine the set point regulation of body weight, and an ability to permanently modulate the set point to oscillate around and a lean body mass. The conceptualization of ABCD as a chronic disease, however, does present us with opportunities for primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention to avert disease progression. For tertiary care, the advent of new, more effective, second-generation obesity medications will allow clinicians to treat-to-target via active management of body weight into a target range that will ameliorate specific complications.

Association of Visceral Obesity-Related Indices With Coronary Collateralization in Patients With Chronic Total Occlusion. Front Cardiovasc Med 2021; 8:742855. [PMID: 34746259 PMCID: PMC8566720 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2021.742855] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2021] [Accepted: 09/24/2021] [Indexed: 01/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Obesity is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. We investigated whether and to what extent visceral obesity-related indices were associated with coronary collateralization (CC) in chronic total occlusion (CTO) patients. Methods: This retrospective cohort study involved 1,008 consecutive patients with CTO who underwent CTO-percutaneous coronary artery intervention (PCI). CC was graded according to the Rentrop scoring system. Data on demographic and clinical characteristics were collected by cardiovascular doctors. Logistic regression, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and Kaplan-Meier analyses were performed to assess the predictive value of visceral obesity-related indices for CC. Results: Overall, 1,008 inpatients were assigned to the poor CC group (n = 592) and good CC group (n = 416). In multivariate-adjusted logistic regression analyses, all visceral obesity-related indices (P-value < 0.001) were significantly associated with CC. After ROC analysis and the Delong test, the Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI) had the largest area under the curve (AUC) of 0.741 (0.711–0.771). Further analysis revealed that CVAI quartile remained a risk factor for poor CC in all groups, CVAI was associated with a 1.018-fold higher risk of poor CC (OR = 1.018, 95% CI: 1.014–1.021, P < 0.001). Individuals in the top CVAI quartile group had the highest risk of poor CC (OR = 10.657, 95% CI: 6.492–17.493, P < 0.001). Subgroup analyses showed similar results, and CVAI quartile remained a risk factor for poor CC. Moreover, increased CVAI predicted poor prognosis in CTO patients. Conclusion: In summary, this study indicated that all the increased visceral obesity-related indices were significantly associated with increased poor CC risk. After adjusting for potential risks, CVAI had the best performance for estimating CC and predicting prognosis in CTO patients.

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS The need for understanding obesity as a chronic disease, its stigmatization, and the lack of actionability related to it demands a new approach. The adiposity-based chronic disease (ABCD) model is based on adiposity amount, distribution, and function, with a three stage complication-centric rather than a body mass index (BMI)-centric approach. The prevalence rates and associated risk factors are presented. METHODS In total, 2159 participants were randomly selected from Czechia. ABCD was established as BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 or high body fat percent, or abdominal obesity and then categorized by their adiposity-based complications: Stage 0: none; Stage 1: mild/moderate; Stage 2: severe. RESULTS ABCD prevalence was 62.8%. Stage 0 was 2.3%; Stage 1 was 31.4%; Stage 2 was 29.1%. Comparing with other classifiers, participants in Stage 2 were more likely to have diabetes, hypertension, and metabolic syndrome than those with overweight, obesity, abdominal obesity, and increased fat mass. ABCD showed the highest sensitivity and specificity to detect participants with peripheral artery disease, increased intima media, and vascular disease. CONCLUSION/INTERPRETATION The ABCD model provides a more sensitive approach that facilitates the early detection and stratification of participants at risk compared to traditional classifiers.

Abstract
Background Respiratory function usually worsens in the elderly with aging. This study aimed to retrospectively investigate tracheal changes caused by “normal aging” through use of low-dose CT (LDCT) in non-smoking asymptomatic urban residents and the related factors influencing tracheal changes. Material/Methods A total of 733 Chinese subjects who underwent LDCT were recruited. The trachea shape, width, and calcification degree of the tracheal wall were measured and compared between males and females and among different age groups. The effects of age, sex, trachea morphology, BMI, BP, GLU, TC, TG, HDL, and LDL on the width and calcification of tracheal wall were analyzed by multiple linear regression. Results Significant sex differences in trachea shape were found, as type II and type I were found mainly in the males and females, respectively. The values of anterior-posterior inner diameter (AP), left-right inner diameter (LR), width, and calcification score of tracheae in the males were higher than that in the females. In both males and females, trachea AP, wall width, and calcification scores increased with age, but this trend was not observed in tracheal LR. Age, sex, and trachea shape had significant effects on the width and calcification scores of tracheal walls, and trachea calcification was one of the factors influencing tracheal wall width. Conclusions Tracheal aging can be evaluated by measuring trachea shape, thickness, and the degree of calcification of the tracheal wall by LDCT, while sex and age should be taken into consideration comprehensively for judging normal trachea aging. In addition, obesity may aggravate trachea aging.

Abstract
According to the World Health Organization report published in 2016, 650 million people worldwide suffer from obesity, almost three times more than in 1975. Obesity is defined as excessive fat accumulation which may impair health with non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases (hypertension, coronary artery disease, stroke), and some cancers. Despite medical advances, cardiovascular complications are still the leading causes of death arising from obesity. Excessive fat accumulation is caused by the imbalance between energy intake and expenditure. The pathogenesis of this process is complex and not fully understood, but current research is focused on the role of the complex crosstalk between the central nervous system (CNS), neuroendocrine and immune system including the autonomic nervous system, adipose tissue, digestive and cardiovascular systems. Additionally, special attention has been paid to newly discovered substances: neuropeptide 26RFa, preptin, and adropin. It was shown that the above peptides are synthesized both in numerous structures of the CNS and in many peripheral organs and tissues, such as the heart, adipose tissue, and the gastrointestinal tract. Recently, particular attention has been paid to the role of the presented peptides in the pathogenesis of obesity, metabolic and cardiovascular system diseases. This review summarizes the role of newly investigated peptides in the crosstalk between brain and peripheral organs in the pathogenesis of obesity, metabolic, and cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Over the past few decades, several anti-obesity medications have demonstrated an association with adverse cardiovascular outcomes, leading to their market withdrawal. This has caused researchers to investigate the cardiovascular safety of such medications in cardiovascular outcome trials. However, the data from these trials are limited, and their outcomes are not promising. Therefore, the aim of this review is to provide an overview of the current and past Food and Drug Administration-approved medications for weight loss, including novel diabetes medications (glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists and sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors) and non-diabetes medications, and to highlight the current designs of cardiovascular outcome trials and their importance in the evaluation of the overall safety concerns associated with these anti-obesity medications. The limitations of the trials and opportunities for improvement were also evaluated. Finally, we also briefly describe cardiovascular safety and risks in this review.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertension (HTN) patients who have phlegm-dampness syndrome (PDS) tend to be obese and have worse outcomes. However, the association of body weight (BW) changes and mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of HTN-PDS are not well elucidated. This study aims to identify the longitudinal observations associated with the circulating markers discriminating BW changes of individuals with HTN-PDS. METHODS An integrative approach relying on metabolomics and proteomics was applied to serum samples from HTN-PDS patients in a prospective cohort to identify the plausible mechanistic pathways underpinning HTN-PDS pathophysiology. Study participants were determined to have experienced a weight change if they showed a 5%-15% increase/reduction in BW at the end of the follow-up period. The joint pathway analysis and network analysis were performed using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA®) on the serum samples obtained from the participants over the period. RESULTS The study involved 22 HTN-PDS patients who were overweight initially and were able to lose enough weight and 24 HTN-PDS individuals who developed overweight from normal BMI during a one-year follow-up. Our analysis suggested three types of phosphatidylcholine (PC) were altered. PC (22:2(13Z,16Z)/24:1(15Z)) and LysoPC (16:1(9Z)) were decreased in Queryweight gain samples, whereas the levels of PC (14:0/16:0) were increased in weight loss samples. The metabolomic analysis suggested 24 metabolites associated with HTN-PDS. Of them, 13 were up-regulated and 11 were down-regulated. The two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis (2D DIGE) identified 45 phosphorylated proteins got altered in the HTN-PDS patients, wherein 23 were up-regulated and 22 were down-regulated. Integrated proteomic and metabolomics analyse acknowledged biomarkers PC, Complement C3, C4a/C4b, A2M and SERPINF1 as strong predictors for BW changes in HTN-PDS patients. CONCLUSION The combined serum proteomic and metabolomic profiling reveals a link between BW change and the complement system activity, altered phosphatidylcholine metabolism in HTN-PDS patients. Future studies with larger cohorts are required to strengthen and validate these findings.

Abstract
China has one of the largest populations with obesity in the world, and obesity has become a major challenge for the country's health-care system. Current guidelines for obesity management are not adequately supported by evidence from clinical studies in Chinese populations. Effective lifestyle interventions suitable for Chinese populations are scarce, insufficient weight-loss medications have been approved by regulatory bodies, and there is low acceptance of non-lifestyle interventions (ie, medications and surgery) among both health-care providers and the general public. Large, well designed, and well implemented clinical trials are needed to strengthen the evidence base for the clinical management of obesity in China. Obesity management can be improved through use of a tiered system involving health management centres, integrated lifestyle interventions and medical treatments, strengthened obesity education and training, and use of advanced electronic health technologies. Resource mobilisation, support from major stakeholders for people with overweight or obesity, and education and changes to social norms among the wider public are also needed. National health policies should prioritise both obesity prevention and improvement of the treatment and management of obesity.

Waist to height ratio is associated with an increased risk of mortality in Chinese patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2021; 21:263. [PMID: 34049494 PMCID: PMC8164240 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-021-02080-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2021] [Accepted: 05/24/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Abdominal obesity as a predominant comorbidity has played a key role in the incidence and worsening of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) behaves better than waist circumference or body mass index in evaluating abdominal obesity. While the association between WHtR and all-cause death in Chinese patients with HFpEF remains unclear. Methods Patients with stable HFpEF (N = 2041) who presented to our hospital from January 2008 to July 2019 were divided into low-WHtR (< 0.5, N = 378) and high-WHtR (≥ 0.5, N = 1663). Multivariable Cox proportional-hazard models were used to examine the association of WHtR with all-cause death. Results The average age was 76.63 ± 11.44 years, and the mean follow-up was 4.53 years. During follow-up, 185 patients (9.06%) reached the primary outcome of all-cause death. As for the secondary outcome, 79 patients (3.87%) experienced cardiovascular death, 106 (5.19%) had non-cardiovascular death, and 94 (4.61%) had heart failure rehospitalization. After multivariable adjustment, a higher WHtR was significantly associated with the increased risks of all-cause death [adjusted hazard ratios (HR) 1.91, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.06–3.45, p = 0.032], cardiovascular death (adjusted HR 2.58; 95% CI 1.01–6.67, p = 0.048), and HF rehospitalization (adjusted HR 3.04; 95% CI 1.26–7.31, p = 0.013). Conclusions Higher WHtR is an independent risk factor for all-cause death in Chinese patients with HFpEF.

Abstract
Patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) experience repetitive partial or complete airway collapse during sleep resulting in nocturnal hypoxia-normoxia cycling, and are at increased cardiovascular risk. The number of apneas and hypopneas indexed per hour of sleep (apnea-hypopnea index) along with the associated intermittent hypoxia predict the increased cardiovascular risk; thus, their attenuation or prevention are objectives of OSA therapy. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the gold standard treatment for OSA and, when effective, mitigates the apnea-hypopnea index and hypoxemia. As such, it is reasonable to expect CPAP would decrease cardiovascular risk. However, 3 recent randomized clinical trials of CPAP vs usual care did not show any significant effects of CPAP in attenuating incident cardiovascular events in patients with OSA. In this review, we discuss these studies in addition to potential complementary therapeutic options to CPAP (eg, neurostimulation) and conclude with suggested therapeutic targets for future interventional studies (eg, the autonomic nervous system). Although these areas of research are exciting, they have yet to be tested to any similar degree of rigour as CPAP.

Bariatric Surgery-How Much Malabsorption Do We Need?-A Review of Various Limb Lengths in Different Gastric Bypass Procedures. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10040674.

Abstract
The number of obese individuals worldwide continues to increase every year, thus, the number of bariatric/metabolic operations performed is on a constant rise as well. Beside exclusively restrictive procedures, most of the bariatric operations have a more or less malabsorptive component. Several different bypass procedures exist alongside each other today and each type of bypass is performed using a distinct technique. Furthermore, the length of the bypassed intestine may differ as well. One might add that the operations are performed differently in different parts of the world and have been changing and evolving over time. This review evaluates the most frequently performed bariatric bypass procedures (and their variations) worldwide: Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass, One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass, Single-Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileal Bypass + Sleeve Gastrectomy, Biliopancreatic Diversion + Duodenal Switch and operations due to weight regain. The evaluation of the procedures and different limb lengths focusses on weight loss, remission of comorbidities and the risk of malnutrition and deficiencies. This narrative review does not aim at synthesizing quantitative data. Rather, it provides a summary of carefully selected, high-quality studies to serve as examples and to draw tentative conclusions on the effects of the bypass procedures mentioned above. In conclusion, it is important to carefully choose the procedure and small bowel length excluded from the food passage suited best to each individual patient. A balance has to be achieved between sufficient weight loss and remission of comorbidities, as well as a low risk of deficiencies and malnutrition. In any case, at least 300 cm of small bowel should always remain in the food stream to prevent the development of deficiencies and malnutrition.

Abstract
There is a high prevalence of hypertension among Lebanese adults, but no evidence is available on its prevalence and control exclusively among older adults (65 + years). This study provides the first evidence on a representative sample of 502 community elderly and presents the basis for future research and policy implications. Results show an overall prevalence of 52% with a significantly higher female-to-male ratio. Factors independently associated with hypertension were older age, body mass index, and dementia. More than a third of those with a positive history of hypertension had uncontrolled blood levels. Uncontrolled hypertension was higher among women. Increasing awareness about medication adherence and controlling multi-morbidities constitute promising measures to lowering the burden of hypertension among Lebanese older adults, especially women.

[PMID: 35003255 PMCID: PMC8731295 DOI: 10.1155/2021/4535983] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2021] [Accepted: 12/13/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between body roundness index (BRI) and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in each sex, explore the dose-response relationship between them, and evaluate the predictive value of BRI for T2DM. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective cohort study was performed on 15,464 Japanese patients at the Murakami Memorial Hospital. Data on anthropometric indices and biochemical parameters were obtained. Multivariate Cox regression models were used to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs) of incident T2DM associated with BRI. Dose-response relationships were evaluated using a smoothing function analysis and the threshold effect. Receiver operating characteristic curves were used to evaluate and compare the predictive values of BRI, body mass index (BMI), and waist circumference (WC) for T2DM. RESULTS During a median 5.4-year follow-up period, 373 subjects were diagnosed with T2DM. After adjusting for age, alcohol intake, smoking status, fatty liver, systolic blood pressure, fasting plasma glucose, glycated hemoglobin, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, and total cholesterol, the relationship between BRI and T2DM was linear in women (HR (95% CI) for BRI Z score = 1.48 (1.26,1.74)) and curvilinear in men (HR (95% CI) on the left and right of the inflection point = 0.70 (0.44, 1.10) and 1.46 (1.27, 1.67), respectively). Compared with BMI (area under the curve (AUC) = 0.684; p < 0.001) and WC (AUC = 0.700; p=0.007), BRI was the strongest predictor of T2DM in men (AUC = 0.715). Similarly, the AUC of BRI was larger than that of BMI (AUC = 0.757; p=0.966) and WC (AUC = 0.733; p=0.015) in women. CONCLUSIONS BRI was positively linearly associated with an elevated risk of incident T2DM in women. In men, the relationship between BRI and T2DM was J-shaped. BRI is an effective indicator of predicting T2DM. Its discriminatory power was higher than that of BMI and WC in both sexes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This review investigated the effects and safety of Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) formulas on weight management. METHODS Eighteen databases in English, Chinese, Korean, and Japanese were searched from their inceptions to September 2019. The treatment groups included CHM formulations, and the control included placebo, Western medication (WM), and lifestyle intervention (LI), with or without cointerventions (WM and/or LI). Quality of studies was assessed using Cochrane Collaboration's risk of bias assessment tool. Body weight and body mass index (BMI) were analysed in RevMan v5.4.1 and expressed as mean differences with 95% confidence intervals (CI), while adverse events were expressed as risk ratio with 95% CI. RESULTS Thirty-nine RCTs were eligible for qualitative analysis, 34 of which were included in the meta-analyses. The majority of studies had a high or unclear risk of selection, performance, and detection bias. Twenty-five CHM studies involving cointerventions revealed that CHM had significant adjunct effects on body weight and BMI at the end of treatment compared to control. No serious adverse events were reported in the CHM groups. CONCLUSION CHM indicates a promising adjunct to facilitate WM or lifestyle change for weight management. However, methodological barriers such as lack of allocation concealment and double-blinding may have led to challenges in data synthesis. More rigorously designed RCTs involving cointerventions are warranted.

Associations between abdominal obesity indices and diabetic complications: Chinese visceral adiposity index and neck circumference. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2020; 19:118. [PMID: 32736628 PMCID: PMC7395356 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-020-01095-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 140] [Impact Index Per Article: 35.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2020] [Accepted: 07/25/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Background and aims Obesity, especially abdominal obesity, has been considered a risk factor for diabetic complications. Many abdominal obesity indices have been established, including neck circumference (NC), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), lipid accumulation product (LAP), visceral adiposity index (VAI) and the Chinese visceral adiposity index (CVAI). However, studies investigating the associations between these indices and diabetic complications are limited. The objective of this study was to investigate the associations of the abdominal obesity indices with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease (CVD), diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and diabetic retinopathy (DR). Methods A total of 4658 diabetic participants were enrolled from seven communities in Shanghai, China, in 2018. Participants completed questionnaires and underwent blood pressure, glucose, lipid profile, and urine albumin/creatinine ratio measurements; fundus photographs; and anthropometric parameters, including height, weight, waist circumference (WC), NC and hip circumference (HC). Results In men, a one standard deviation (SD) increase in CVAI level was significantly associated with a greater prevalence of CVD (OR 1.35; 95% CI 1.13, 1.62) and DKD (OR 1.38; 95% CI 1.12, 1.70) (both P < 0.05). In women, a one SD increase in CVAI level was significantly associated with a greater prevalence of CVD (OR 1.32; 95% CI 1.04, 1.69) and DKD (OR 2.50; 95% CI 1.81, 3.47) (both P < 0.05). A one SD increase in NC was significantly associated with a greater prevalence of CCA plaque in both men (OR 1.26; 95% CI 1.10, 1.44) and women (OR 1.20; 95% CI 1.07, 1.35). These associations were all adjusted for potential confounding factors. Conclusions CVAI was most strongly associated with the prevalence of CVD and DKD among the abdominal obesity indices, and NC was unique associated with the prevalence of CCA plaque in Chinese adults with diabetes.

Abstract
The aim of this systematic review was to assess the performance of anthropometric tools to determine obesity in the general population (CRD42018086888). Our review included 32 studies. To detect obesity with body mass index (BMI), the meta-analyses rendered a sensitivity of 51.4% (95% CI 38.5-64.2%) and a specificity of 95.4% (95% CI 90.7-97.8%) in women, and 49.6% (95% CI 34.8-64.5%) and 97.3% (95% CI 92.1-99.1%), respectively, in men. For waist circumference (WC), the summary estimates for the sensitivity were 62.4% (95% CI 49.2-73.9%) and 88.1% for the specificity (95% CI 77.0-94.2%) in men, and 57.0% (95% CI 32.2-79.0%) and 94.8% (95% CI 85.8-98.2%), respectively, in women. The data were insufficient to pool the results for waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) but were similar to BMI and WC. In conclusion, BMI and WC have serious limitations for use as obesity screening tools in clinical practice despite their widespread use. No evidence supports that WHR and WHtR are more suitable than BMI or WC to assess body fat. However, due to the lack of more accurate and feasible alternatives, BMI and WC might still have a role as initial tools for assessing individuals for excess adiposity until new evidence emerges.

Abstract
There is a documented substantial gap between the level of nutrition education for medical trainees and the need to provide nutrition counseling. Culinary medicine offers a solution, but there are multiple barriers and no guides to implementation. This article identifies core components and strategies to overcome barriers on the basis of experiences of multiple institutions. The outline forms a foundation to be built upon by future collaborators to empower more widespread implementation of culinary medicine education and improve medical nutrition education and ultimately, patient outcomes.

Abstract
Introduction/Purpose Weight regain and weight loss failure after bariatric surgery are important issues that may require a weight regain procedure. Three-dimensional-computed tomography (3D-CT) is a well-established method allowing exact measurements of pouch volume. The aims of this study were to prove the applicability of swallow MRI as a non-ionizing procedure and compare it to 3D-CT in patients after weight regain procedures following RYGB. Materials and Methods Twelve post-RYGB patients who had a follow-up operation for weight regain before 12/2017 were included in this prospective study. Swallow MRI and 3D-CT were performed in each patient to evaluate the size of the anastomosis, pouch volume, and intrathoracic pouch migration (ITM). Results Mean pouch volume in swallow MRI and 3D-CT were 40.4 ± 21.0 ml and 43.5 ± 30.2 ml, respectively (p = 0.83), and pouch diameter at the maximal distention was 35.3 ± 5.9 ml (MRI) and 31.0 ± 10.0 ml (CT) (p = 0.16). The rate of ITM was 75% in both examinations (p = 1.0). Conclusion Swallow MRI is a valid method for the assessment of pouch volume in different phases of the swallowing process and is comparable to 3D-CT. The diagnosis of ITM using swallow MRI was equal to 3D-CT.

Abstract
Obesity is a chronic condition that requires long-term management and is associated with unprecedented stigma in different settings, including during interactions with the health-care system. This stigma has a negative effect on the mental and physical health of people with obesity and can lead to avoidance of health care and disruption of the doctor-patient relationship. Considerable evidence exists to suggest that simply having a conversation about obesity can lead to weight loss, which translates into health benefits. However, both health-care practitioners and people living with obesity report apprehension in initiating this conversation. We have collaborated with stakeholders from Obesity UK, physicians, dieticians, clinical psychologists, obesity researchers, conversation analysts, nurses, and representatives from National Health Service England Diabetes and Obesity. This group has contributed to the production of this consensus statement, which addresses how people living with obesity wish to have their condition referred to and provides practical guidance for health-care professionals to facilitate collaborative and supportive discussions about obesity. Expert stakeholders consider that changes to language used at the point of care can alleviate the stigma of obesity within the health-care system and support improved outcomes for both people living with obesity and for the health-care system.

Abstract
Background Some guidelines state that in-person weight management interventions are more efficacious than those delivered digitally. However, digital programs are more scalable and accessible. We hypothesized that one-on-one health coaching via app-based video chat would simulate an in-person experience and help achieve outcomes comparable to those of in-person interventions. Methods A 12-month digital weight management intervention was provided to overweight or obese adults recruited from a large technology company. One-on-one health coaching sessions were offered during a 24-week intensive phase as well as subsequent maintenance phase. Focused on sustainable changes in activity and diet, the intervention incorporates SMART goals, in-app food and activity logs, Fitbit integration, as well as optional sleep and stress modules. Self-Determination Theory and the Transtheoretical Model are incorporated to drive behavior change. Multilevel mixed-effects models were used to analyze weight changes retrospectively. Results Six hundred eighty-three participants reported 29,051 weights. At 12 months, mean percent changes in body weight were -7.2% and -7.6% for overweight and obese groups, respectively. A weight change of -5% is commonly targeted for in-person weight management interventions. Observed weight loss exceeded this target by 2.2% (95% CI, 0.7% to 3.8%; P < .01) for the overweight group and 2.6% (95% CI, 1.4% to 3.9%; P < .01) for the obese group. Conclusions Further research is needed with randomization to in-person or digital interventions. Though limited by an observational, retrospective design, preliminary results suggest that some digital weight management programs with one-on-one coaching may achieve outcomes comparable to those of robust, in-person interventions.

Abstract
Introduction Objective: to evaluate the effectiveness of the obesity intervention with three different approaches, one of them with a platform that promotes physical activity. Material and method: randomized, controlled, parallel clinical trial that compared 3 arms, multicenter study in overweight or obese patients with a follow-up of 12 months. The patients were randomized into three groups: Intervention in the primary care center with G1 intervention: Control group, which received the usual recommendations to lose weight following the SEEDO 2000 Consensus. G2: Motivational intervention of obesity (IMOAP) with trained nurse and small periodic work groups. G3: Motivational intervention of obesity (IMOAP) adding the use of a digital platform that allows physical activity to be recorded, monitored and at the same time favors the practice of this (iwopi). Variables were collected: weight, height, BMI, circumference of the waist, lipid parameters, blood pressure, glycosylated hemoglobin. Results: 185 patients were initially included in the study. Seventeen patients left the study. Thus, 168 patients completed the study: 47 in G1, 61 in G2 and 60 in G3. Of the population studied, 57.1% were women. observing a general average weight reduction at the end of the study of 4.37 kg, being 5.34 kg in the group 2.6.29 kg in the group 3 and 1.25 kg in the control group (G1). It was also observed that cholesterol levels in three groups were reduced. at did not reach a statistically significant value. The clinically relevant parameters were: group 1 (control) versus group 2 (IMOAP): relative risk (RR), 0.10 to 0.46; relative risk reduction (RRR), 0.54 to 0.90; absolute risk reduction (ARR), from 0.30 to 0.61; number needed to treat (NNT), 3 to 2. Group 1 versus group 3 (IMOAP-PA): RR, 0.07 to 0.30; RRR, 0.70 to 0.93; ARR, 0.61 to 0.86; NNT: 2 to 1. Group 2 versus group 3: RR, 0.54 to 0.84; RRR, 0.16 to 0.46; ARR, 0.14 to 0.43; NNT, 7 to 2. Conclusions: The digital health platform that stimulates physical activity added to an interventionist motivation in overweight or obese patients is a significant additional benefit in terms of weight loss results, reduction of BMI and lipid profile in patients affected by overweight or obesity and a more effective cost.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Obesity is responsible for a huge burden of suffering and social costs, and yet many patients lack access to evidence-based therapies. The diagnostic term "obesity" and inadequate International Classification of Diseases(ICD) codes contribute to suboptimal efforts to prevent and treat obesity as a chronic disease. The goal of this review is to develop a medically actionable classification system based on the diagnostic term "adiposity-based chronic disease" (ABCD) that reflects disease pathophysiology and specific complications causing morbidity and mortality. METHODS A coding system based on the diagnosis of ABCD with four domains is proposed: A codes reflect pathophysiology, B codes indicate BMI classification, C codes specify specific biomechanical and cardiovascular complications remediable by weight loss, and D codes indicate the degree of the severity of complications. Supplemental codes identify aggravating factors that complicate care and that are relevant to a personalized therapeutic plan. RESULTS The coding system addresses pathophysiology and therapeutic goals and differential risk, presence, and severity of specific complications that are integral to ABCD as a chronic disease. CONCLUSIONS The scientifically correct and medically actionable approach to diagnosis and disease coding will lead to greater acknowledgement of ABCD as a disease and accessibility to evidence-based therapies on behalf of patients across the life cycle.
