Abstract
Fatty acid translocase/cluster of differentiation 36 (FAT/CD36) is a multifunctional membrane protein activated by a high-fat diet, physical exercise, fatty acids (FAs), leptin, and insulin. The principal function of FAT/CD36 is to facilitate the transport of long-chain fatty acids through cell membranes such as myocytes, adipocytes, heart, and liver. Under high-energy expenditure, the different isoforms of FAT/CD36 in the plasma membrane and mitochondria bind to the mobilization and oxidation of FAs. Furthermore, FAT/CD36 is released in its soluble form and becomes a marker of metabolic dysfunction. Studies with healthy animals and humans show that physical exercise and a high-lipid diet increase FAT/CD36 expression and caloric expenditure. However, several aspects such as obesity, diabetes, Single Nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and oxidative stress affect the normal FAs metabolism and function of FAT/CD36, inducing metabolic disease. Through a comprehensive systematic review of primary studies, this work aimed to document molecular mechanisms related to FAT/CD36 in FAs oxidation and trafficking in skeletal muscle under basal conditions, physical exercise, and diet in healthy individuals.

LSD1 for the Targeted Regulation of Adipose Tissue. Curr Issues Mol Biol 2022; 45:151-163.

Abstract
White and thermal (brown and beige) adipose tissue energy storage and oxidative regulation pathways play a central role in maintaining the energy balance throughout the body, and the dysregulation of these pathways is closely related to glucose and lipid metabolism disorders and adipose tissue dysfunction, including obesity, chronic inflammation, insulin resistance, mitochondrial dysfunction, and fibrosis. Recent epigenetic studies have identified the novel regulatory element LSD1, which controls the above parameters, and have provided new mechanistic possibilities for re-encoding the fate and function of adipocytes. In this review, we outline the current advances in adipocyte metabolism in physiology and disease and discuss possible strategies for LSD1 to alter the phenotype of adipose tissue and thus influence energy utilization to improve metabolic health.

Abstract
Mendelian randomization (MR) is increasingly used for generating estimates of the causal impact of exposures on outcomes. Evidence suggests a causal role of excess adipose tissue (adiposity) on many health outcomes. However, this body of work has not been systematically appraised. We systematically reviewed and meta-analysed results from MR studies investigating the association between adiposity and health outcomes prior to the SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 pandemic (PROSPERO: CRD42018096684). We searched Medline, EMBASE, and bioRxiv up to February 2019 and obtained data on 2,214 MR analyses from 173 included articles. 29 meta-analyses were conducted using data from 34 articles (including 66 MR analyses) and results not able to be meta-analysed were narratively synthesised. Body mass index (BMI) was the predominant exposure used and was primarily associated with an increase in investigated outcomes; the largest effect in the meta-analyses was observed for the association between BMI and polycystic ovary syndrome (estimates reflect odds ratios (OR) per standard deviation change in each adiposity measure): OR = 2.55; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.22–5.33. Only colorectal cancer was investigated with two exposures in the meta-analysis: BMI (OR = 1.18; 95% CI = 1.01–1.37) and waist-hip ratio (WHR; OR = 1.48; 95% CI = 1.08–2.03). Broadly, results were consistent across the meta-analyses and narrative synthesis. Consistent with many observational studies, this work highlights the impact of adiposity across a broad spectrum of health outcomes, enabling targeted follow-up analyses. However, missing and incomplete data mean results should be interpreted with caution.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disease due to the increasing life expectancy of the world's population. Every 2nd patient over the age of 50 suffers from knee or hip OA, and this is directly related to the increased burden on healthcare. Accumulated data on the comorbid profile of patients with OA dictate the need to identify disease phenotypes in order to provide personalized care. Individual clinical manifestations of OA also require a differential approach: the pain treatment requires consideration of the patient's psycho-emotional profile and the possibility of involving nociceptive pathways in the process. However, due to the ambiguity of existing clinical guidelines, most experts note a number of difficulties in prescribing treatment for patients with OA.The resolution presents an agreed opinion of experts on the algorithms for managing patients with OA, starting from the primary level, with the gradual involvement of related specialists. Some issues of a personalized approach are considered depending on the presence of comorbid pathology and the severity of individual symptoms of the disease. The prospects of the combined use of pharmacological and non-drug methods of treatment are noted; emphasis was placed on the importance of rehabilitation measures at the first level of medical care, provided to patients with OA, long before the development of structural changes.The proposed algorithms for managing patients can be considered as the basis for future recommendations for managing patients with this pathology.

Exploring the Role of Obesity in Dilated Cardiomyopathy Based on Bio-informatics Analysis. J Cardiovasc Dev Dis 2022; 9:jcdd9120462. [PMID: 36547458 PMCID: PMC9783214 DOI: 10.3390/jcdd9120462] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Revised: 12/08/2022] [Accepted: 12/13/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Obesity is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), contributing to increasing global disease burdens. Apart from heart failure, coronary artery disease, and arrhythmia, recent research has found that obesity also elevates the risk of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). The main purpose of this study was to investigate the underlying biological role of obesity in increasing the risk of DCM. (2) Methods: The datasets GSE120895, GSE19303, and GSE2508 were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed using GSE120895 for DCM and GSE2508 for obesity, and the findings were compiled to discover the common genes. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses were conducted for the common genes in RStudio. In addition, CIBERSORT was used to obtain the immune cellular composition from DEGs. The key genes were identified in the set of common genes by the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithm, the prognostic risk models of which were verified by receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves in GSE19303. Finally, Spearman's correlation was used to explore the connections between key genes and immune cells. (3) Results: GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses showed that the main enriched terms of the common genes were transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β), fibrillar collagen, NADPH oxidase activity, and multiple hormone-related signaling pathways. Both obesity and DCM had a disordered immune environment, especially obesity. The key genes NOX4, CCDC80, COL1A2, HTRA1, and KLHL29 may be primarily responsible for the changes. Spearman's correlation analysis performed for key genes and immune cells indicated that KLHL29 closely correlated to T cells and M2 macrophages, and HTRA1 very tightly correlated to plasma cells. (4) Conclusions: Bio-informatics analyses performed for DCM and obesity in our study suggested that obesity disturbed the immune micro-environment, promoted oxidative stress, and increased myocardial fibrosis, resulting in ventricular remodeling and an increased risk of DCM. The key genes KLHL29 and HTRA1 may play critical roles in obesity-related DCM.

Abstract
Lifestyle changes have led to increased incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD); therefore, potential targets against CVD should be explored to mitigate its risks. Adiponectin (APN), an adipokine secreted by adipose tissue, has numerous beneficial effects against CVD related to glucose and lipid metabolism disorders, including regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism, increasing insulin sensitivity, reduction of oxidative stress and inflammation, protection of myocardial cells, and improvement in endothelial cell function. These effects demonstrate the anti-atherosclerotic and antihypertensive properties of APN, which could aid in improving myocardial hypertrophy, and reducing myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (MI/R) injury and myocardial infarction. APN can also be used for diagnosing and predicting heart failure. This review summarizes and discusses the role of APN in the treatment of CVD related to glucose and lipid metabolism disorders, and explores future APN research directions and clinical application prospects. Future studies should elucidate the signaling pathway network of APN cardiovascular protective effects, which will facilitate clinical trials targeting APN for CVD treatment in a clinical setting.

Abstract
In developing nations such as Indonesia, obesity and central obesity have emerged as major public health issues. Many studies have revealed that morbidity and death from obesity-related diseases are already significant in some "Asian" communities at low body mass index (BMI) levels. A recent study showed that the obesity prevalence in Indonesia is underestimated when using the current BMI cutoff (obese ≥ 27.0). Indonesia faced an increase in obesity-related chronic diseases despite having a lower obesity prevalence than developed countries, which may be explained by the underestimation of obesity levels in Indonesia. This creates a huge global health problem, as well as an economic burden. Another recent study on the Indonesian population depicted the new proposed cutoff of waist circumference (WC), which is lower than the World Health Organization (WHO) standard for detecting the early detection of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), one of the comorbidities and a strong correlation with obesity. An analysis of 58 studies in 2021 that included Indonesian adult subjects revealed enormous differences and ambiguities in defining obesity cutoffs values among Indonesian researchers. Additionally, we advocate adding the Edmonton Obesity Staging System (EOSS) staging to the anthropometric classification for a better clinical evaluation of obesity. Considering the urgency of obesity determination in Indonesia for clinical application and study purposes, this review highlights the need to revise the optimal cutoff value for obesity to warrant early prevention and control of diabetes complications.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) has an important role in the incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) than obesity by itself. The visceral adiposity index (VAI) and lipid accumulation product (LAP) are surrogate indices for measuring VAT. The aimed of this study was to investigate the association of these markers with cardiovascular events among populations with different BMI category in Mashhad, northeast of Iran. METHOD The present study comprised a prospective cohort of 9685 men and women (35-65 years) who were recruited from MASHAD study. BMI category was defined as normal weight (BMI <25), over weight (25 ≤ BMI<30) and obese (BMI≥30). Demographic, laboratory evaluations, anthropometric and metabolic parameters were performed. Logistic and Cox regression analyses were used to determine the association and risk of cardiovascular events with VAT and LAP. RESULTS The mean VAI and LAP in CVD patients were significantly higher than in healthy ones in all 3 groups. In terms of CVD event prediction, VAI and LAP had significant association with the incidence of CVD in the second (RR (95% CI): 2.132 (1.047-4.342) and 2.701 (1.397-5.222), respectively) and third tertiles (RR (95% CI): 2.541 (1.163-5.556) and 2.720 (1.159-6.386), respectively) in the normal group, but this association was only found in the third tertiles (RR (95% CI): 2.448 (1.205-4.971) and 2.376 (1.086-5.199), respectively) in the overweight group. The result couldn't find this association for the obese group. CONCLUSION In this study, we found that there was a significant association between LAP and VAI and cardiovascular events in normal weight and over-weight groups; however, no significant relationship was found in the obese group.

Association between fat-infiltrated axillary lymph nodes on screening mammography and cardiometabolic disease. Obes Sci Pract 2022; 8:757-766. [PMID: 36483128 PMCID: PMC9722459 DOI: 10.1002/osp4.608] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2022] [Revised: 04/08/2022] [Accepted: 04/19/2022] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective Ectopic fat deposition within and around organs is a stronger predictor of cardiometabolic disease status than body mass index (BMI). Fat deposition within the lymphatic system is poorly understood. This study examined the association between the prevalence of cardiometabolic disease and ectopic fat deposition within axillary lymph nodes (LNs) visualized on screening mammograms. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted on 834 women presenting for full-field digital screening mammography. The status of fat-infiltrated LNs was assessed based on the size and morphology of axillary LNs from screening mammograms. The prevalence of cardiometabolic disease was retrieved from the electronic medical records, including type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), hypertension, dyslipidemia, high blood glucose, cardiovascular disease, stroke, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Results Fat-infiltrated axillary LNs were associated with a high prevalence of T2DM among all women (adjusted odds ratio: 3.92, 95% CI: [2.40, 6.60], p-value < 0.001) and in subgroups of women with and without obesity. Utilizing the status of fatty LNs improved the classification of T2DM status in addition to age and BMI (1.4% improvement in the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve). Conclusion Fat-infiltrated axillary LNs visualized on screening mammograms were associated with the prevalence of T2DM. If further validated, fat-infiltrated axillary LNs may represent a novel imaging biomarker of T2DM in women undergoing screening mammography.

Status and transition of normal-weight central obesity and the risk of cardiovascular diseases: A population-based cohort study in China. Nutr Metab Cardiovasc Dis 2022; 32:2794-2802. [PMID: 36319576 DOI: 10.1016/j.numecd.2022.07.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2022] [Revised: 07/27/2022] [Accepted: 07/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Cardiovascular disease (CVD) has become a growing public health concern. Normal weight central obesity (NWCO) has emerged as a potential risk factor for cardiometabolic dysregulation. To date, the association between NWCO and new-onset CVDs remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate the associations of NWCO and its longitudinal transitions with cardiovascular risks in middle-aged and older Chinese. METHODS AND RESULTS Data were from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study 2011-2018. NWCO was defined as the combination of a body mass index (BMI) of <24.0 kg/m2 and a waist circumference (WC) of >85 cm in males or >80 cm in females. CVDs included heart diseases and stroke. Cause-specific hazard models and subdistribution hazard models with all-cause death as the competing event were applied. In 2011, 9856 participants without prior CVDs were included, of whom 1814 developed CVDs during a 7-year follow-up. Compared to normal weight and non-central obesity (NWNCO), NWCO was significantly associated with new-onset CVDs, with cause-specific hazard ratios (cHRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of 1.21 (1.04-1.41) for heart diseases and 1.40 (1.11-1.76) for stroke. From 2011 to 2013, 571 NWNCO participants developed NWCO who subsequently demonstrated a 45% higher risk of CVDs than those with maintained NWNCO. CONCLUSION NWCO and transition from NWNCO to NWCO are associated with higher risks of CVDs. Identification and prevention of NWCO may be useful in the management of CVDs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors are anti-diabetic drugs for type 2 diabetes that lower blood glucose levels and body weight. It is of special interest that SGLT2 inhibitors also improve liver metabolism and fatty liver. Liver is an important organ in regulation of energy metabolism, but the metabolic action of SGLT inhibitors in liver remains unclear. METHODS We investigated the factors associated with the beneficial effects of dapagliflozin, a SGLT2 inhibitor, in the liver after confirming its glucose-lowering and weight loss effects using an obesity and diabetes mouse model. We also performed clinical study of patients with type 2 diabetes to explore candidate biomarkers that reflect the beneficial action of dapagliflozin in the liver. FINDINGS In animal study, dapagliflozin induced autophagy in the liver (LC3-II to LC3-I expression ratio: P < 0·05 vs. control), and valine and leucine levels were increased in plasma (P < 0·01 vs. control) as well as in liver (P < 0·05 vs. control). Thus, increased plasma valine and leucine levels are potential biomarkers for improved liver metabolism. Clinical study found that valine and leucine levels were markedly higher in patients treated with dapagliflozin (valine: P < 0·05 vs. control, leucine: P < 0·01 vs. control) than those not treated after one week intervention. INTERPRETATION Dapagliflozin improves liver metabolism via hepatic autophagy, and plasma valine and leucine levels may reflect its metabolic effect.

Abstract
This study examines the associations between perceived urban environment attributes and obesity indices by country using data from an eight-nation study from Latin America. The data were collected from 8185 adults. The Neighbourhood Environment Walkability-abbreviated scale was used to assess perceived urban environment attributes. Obesity indices considered were body mass index, waist circumference, neck circumference, a body shape index and waist-to-height ratio. The perception of a more and better land use mix-diversity (β - 0.44; 95% CI - 0.59, - 0.28), traffic safety (- 0.39; - 0.66, - 0.12), and safety from crime (- 0.36; - 0.57, - 0.15) was associated with lower body mass index across the entire sample. Land use mix-diversity (- 1.21; - 1.60, - 0.82), street connectivity (- 0.26; - 0.37, - 0.15), and traffic safety (- 0.79; - 1.47, - 0.12) were negatively associated with waist circumference. Land use mix-diversity (- 0.11; - 0.20, - 0.03), land use mix-access (- 0.23; - 0.34, 0.12), walking/cycling facilities (- 0.22; - 0.37, - 0.08), and safety from crime (- 0.27; - 0.42, - 0.12) were negatively associated with neck circumference. No associations between perceived urban environment attributes and a body shape index were found. Land use mix-diversity (- 0.01; - 0.02, - 0.01), aesthetics (- 0.02; - 0.03, - 0.01), and safety from crime (- 0.02; - 0.04, - 0.01) were associated with waist-to-height ratio. Environmental interventions involving urban environment attributes are associated with obesity indices and, therefore, may help decrease the prevalence of overweight and obesity.

Abstract
Variables associated with lifestyle can constitute either risk or protective factors for the development and progression of chronic conditions (CC). This study intends to explore the differences between adolescents with and without CC and between adolescents whose school participation is affected/not affected by the existing CC with regard to variables related to lifestyle (i.e., sleep, physical activity, BMI, and leisure). In addition, it also intends to analyze the influence of these variables (i.e., CC and lifestyle) regarding the adolescents’ quality of life (QoL). This work is part of the Portuguese HBSC 2018 study. A total of 8215 adolescents participated (52.7% female), with an average age of 14.36 years (SD = 2.28). The results showed that the adolescents with CC and whose school attendance and participation are affected by their CC exhibit more sleep difficulties (i.e., they experience lower sleep quality and have a higher degree of sleepiness), higher BMI levels (i.e., higher values of overweight and obesity), less participation in leisure activities, and a lower perception of QoL. A higher perception of QoL is associated with school participation unaffected by the existing CC, sleeping well, a low level of sleepiness, a more frequent practice of physical activity, a lower BMI, and a greater involvement in leisure activities. Adolescent health and well-being are a prominent issue in terms of public policies, with behavior and lifestyle playing a significant role in this domain. This message needs to be reinforced in regard to families, educators, healthcare professionals, and public sector policies, particularly concerning students with CC.

Abstract
Purpose The prevalence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) associated with lipid levels is increasing worldwide. Our purpose is to analyze the distribution level and influencing factors of lipid in the whole population and to put forward suggestions for preventing abnormal lipid levels. Methods The study was based on a sample of 91,480 Chinese who participated in a nationwide physical examination program in Wuhan, a midland city in China, in 2018. The distribution of blood lipid in the population was observed using average, and the relationship between the influencing factors and blood lipid level was observed by quantile regression (QR). Results A total of 91,480 people were evaluated in this study, among which 59,165 (64.68%) were female with a mean age of 51.71 ± 10.82 years. QR results showed that different physical examination indexes had different effects on lipid levels. Fasting plasma glucose (FBG) has the largest QR coefficient and BMI had positive effects on total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). In males, age has a positive influence on TC, LDL-C, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), while in females, age has a positive influence on all four indexes. Conclusion We found that the TC and LDL-C levels of females were more susceptible to age than males, and the lipid levels of older females were higher than males. BMI has a greater effect on lipid levels in males than in females. Regardless of gender should pay attention to dyslipidemia caused by diabetes and abnormal liver function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The present study was devoted to the search for possible associations between various adipokines/cytokines associated with the secretory activity of visceral adipocytes, elevated blood levels of LDL-C and abdominal obesity in people under 45 years. METHODS A population sample of Novosibirsk residents (n = 1415) was divided into deciles based on the levels of LDL-C. The study included 158 people, 87 men and 71 women, who had serum LDL-C levels of ≥4.2 mmol/L. Abdominal obesity was found in 50% of people (54% men, 45% women). By multiplex analysis using the human metabolic hormone V3 panel and the human adipokine magnetic bead panel, levels of adipokines and inflammatory markers were determined on a Luminex MAGPIX flow fluorimeter. RESULTS According to multivariate regression analysis (binary logistic regression), the most significant biomolecules, regardless of other factors, associated with the presence of AO against the background of hyper-LDL-C in young people were leptin (direct association) and lipocalin-2 (reverse association), leptin in young men (direct association), and leptin and TNF-alpha in women (direct association). CONCLUSIONS Thus, in young people under 45 years with the presence of two important, potentially atherogenic risk factors-hyper-LDL-C and abdominal obesity-a complex of adipokines and metabolic hormones were associated with the presence of these diseases.

Abstract
Although evidence reporting the beneficial associations of prenatal greenspace exposure with pregnancy outcomes is increasing, there is still a lack of evidence on the potential association of such exposure to greenspace on fetal lipid profile. We aimed to first-time investigate the associations between prenatal exposure to greenspace and lipid levels in the cord blood. The present study was based on data from 150 expectant mothers, residents of Sabzevar city in Iran (2018). For each participant, we identified exposure to greenspace in residential surroundings, residential accessibility to green space, use of green spaces, and the number of plant pots inside the home. Measures of levels of triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and TC/HDL-C and TG/HDL-C ratios in samples of cord blood were applied to identify the lipid profile. We developed adjusted linear regression models to estimate the associations of each indicator of greenspace exposure with each cord blood lipid. We found increased greenspace in residential surroundings across a 100 m buffer, higher residential accessibility to green space, and more use of green spaces were associated with decreased cord blood lipid levels. The remainder findings regarding the greenspace in residential surroundings across 300 m and 500 m buffers and the number of plant pots were null. Some suggestions were observed for a potential mediatory role of air pollution. This study suggests that greenspace exposure during pregnancy may influence positively fetal lipid levels in the cord blood.

Association between socio-economic factors and the risk of overweight and obesity among Chinese adults: a retrospective cross-sectional study from the China Health and Nutrition Survey. Glob Health Res Policy 2022; 7:41. [PMID: 36316735 PMCID: PMC9620587 DOI: 10.1186/s41256-022-00274-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2022] [Accepted: 10/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/07/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND With the rising prevalence of obesity and overweight, increasing number of scholars paid attention to the negative effects on human health and life. Recent years, many studies have focused on the relation of socio-economic factors with the risk of overweight or obesity, but findings have been inconsistent. This study investigated the relationship between socio-economic factors and the risk of overweight and obesity among Chinese adults. METHODS This study was based on the survey of the China Health and Nutrition Survey in 2015, with 9245 Chinese adults aged 18-65 years old. Overweight and obesity were assessed by physical measurements of weight, height, and waist circumference. Multiple logistic models were used to estimate the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of the association. RESULTS Overall, the prevalence rates of general obesity and abdominal obesity were 15.5% and 22.6%, respectively. We found that education and per capita household income were positively associated with overweight and obesity risk in men. However, the association between education and obesity status was negative in women [general obesity: OR = 0.64, 95% CI (0.50-0.81); abdominal obesity: OR = 0.62, 95% CI (0.51-0.76)]. Occupational status was only associated with general overweight in men. CONCLUSIONS Results suggested that higher education and per capita household income were associated with an increased risk of overweight and obesity among Chinese men, whereas the associations were negative for women. We recommended that men with high levels of education and income, women with low levels of education, can engage in some physical activity, modify dietary, and adopt a new way of life to maintain their weight and general health.

[PMID: 36289536 PMCID: PMC9597972 DOI: 10.1186/s12902-022-01172-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2022] [Revised: 09/24/2022] [Accepted: 10/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lipid and glucose metabolism abnormalities are associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is a recently developed indicator that can identify individuals at risk for NAFLD. However, the applicability of the TyG index for identifying NAFLD in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of the TyG index to identify individuals at risk for NAFLD in the T2DM population. METHODS A total of 2280 participants with T2DM were recruited in this cross-sectional study. The TyG index was calculated, and NAFLD was diagnosed by ultrasonography. Binary logistic regression models were used to evaluate the association of the TyG index, glycemic parameters and lipid parameters with NAFLD. RESULTS Logistic regression analysis showed that the TyG index was significantly associated with NAFLD in subjects with T2DM, the odds ratio (OR) were 3.27 (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.03-5.27; P < 0.001) for NAFLD in the highest TyG quartile after adjustment for known confounders. In stratified analysis, an elevated TyG index were more remarkably associated with NAFLD in younger patients (< 65 years; OR, 2.35; 95% CI, 1.83-3.02; P < 0.001), females (OR, 2.69; 95% CI, 1.67-4.32; P < 0.001), patients with BMI < 25 kg/m2 (OR, 2.80; 95% CI, 2.01-3.91; P < 0.0001), and with lower high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (< 1 mmol/L; OR, 2.76; 95% CI, 1.98-3.83; P < 0.001). CONCLUSION The TyG index is significantly associated with NAFLD and shows superior ability for identify NAFLD risk compared with other lipid and glycemic parameters in T2DM.

Cut Points of the Conicity Index and Associated Factors in Brazilian Rural Workers. Nutrients 2022; 14:4487. [PMID: 36364746 PMCID: PMC9654182 DOI: 10.3390/nu14214487] [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: 10/06/2022] [Revised: 10/19/2022] [Accepted: 10/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Metabolic syndrome is associated with cardiovascular complications. Therefore, this study aims to establish cut points for the conicity index based on the components of metabolic syndrome and to associate it with characteristic sociodemographic, food consumption and occupational factors in Brazilian rural workers; (2) Methods: A cross-sectional study carried out with farmers. The receiver operating characteristic curve was calculated and the cut-off points for the conicity index were identified by the area under the curve, sensitivity and specificity. The variables included in the binary logistic regression analysis were selected by considering p < 0.20 in the bivariate test; (3) Results: The cut points were similar in females according to both criteria, resulting in a single cut-off of 1.269. In males, the cut points showed differences, resulting in 1.272 according to the NCEP-ATP III and 1.252 according to the IDF. We have shown that younger people, those who work more than 40 h a week and the lowest contribution of culinary ingredients are associated with increased odds of abdominal obesity, while the consumption of the products they sell or produce decreases these chances; (4) Conclusions: The conicity index showed high discriminatory power for the identification of abdominal obesity in rural workers. Therefore, there is a need to improve eating habits and promote healthier eating environments for individuals, respecting traditional food culture, mainly to contain the advance of MS in rural areas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) was proposed to compensate for the conventional concept of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). We investigated the superiority of MAFLD versus NAFLD in predicting the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). METHODS A total of 2,144 subjects without a history of ASCVD, who underwent a comprehensive medical health check-up, were selected for the study. The associations between fatty liver status and coronary risk surrogates, such as coronary artery calcium score (CACS), coronary artery disease, quantitative stenosis grade, and 10-year ASCVD risk, were analyzed. RESULTS MAFLD and NAFLD were identified in 995 (46.4%) and 891 (41.6%) subjects, respectively. Subjects with MAFLD or NAFLD were more likely to be male and had a significantly higher prevalence of central obesity, obesity, hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia (all, p < 0.05) than their counterparts. In terms of coronary risk surrogates, the MAFLD or NAFLD population had a significantly higher proportion of subjects with CACS > 100, coronary artery disease, higher grade of coronary artery stenosis, and higher 10-year ASCVD risk (all, p < 0.05) than their counterparts. Multivariable logistic regression models showed an independent association between MAFLD/NAFLD and coronary risk surrogates (all, p < 0.05). However, NAFLD only, defined as 'NAFLD, but not MAFLD,' was not associated with an increased coronary risk, compared to MAFLD. CONCLUSIONS Although both MAFLD and NAFLD discriminated different ASCVD risks, MAFLD predicted the risk of ASCVD better than NAFLD in asymptomatic subjects who underwent medical health check-ups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies often evaluate mental health and well-being in association with individual health behaviours although evaluating multiple health behaviours that co-occur in real life may reveal important insights into the overall association. Also, the underlying pathways of how lifestyle might affect our health are still under debate. Here, we studied the mediation of different health behaviours or lifestyle factors on mental health and its effect on core markers of ageing: telomere length (TL) and mitochondrial DNA content (mtDNAc). METHODS In this study, 6054 adults from the 2018 Belgian Health Interview Survey (BHIS) were included. Mental health and well-being outcomes included psychological and severe psychological distress, vitality, life satisfaction, self-perceived health, depressive and generalised anxiety disorder and suicidal ideation. A lifestyle score integrating diet, physical activity, smoking status, alcohol consumption and BMI was created and validated. On a subset of 739 participants, leucocyte TL and mtDNAc were assessed using qPCR. Generalised linear mixed models were used while adjusting for a priori chosen covariates. RESULTS The average age (SD) of the study population was 49.9 (17.5) years, and 48.8% were men. A one-point increment in the lifestyle score was associated with lower odds (ranging from 0.56 to 0.74) for all studied mental health outcomes and with a 1.74% (95% CI: 0.11, 3.40%) longer TL and 4.07% (95% CI: 2.01, 6.17%) higher mtDNAc. Psychological distress and suicidal ideation were associated with a lower mtDNAc of - 4.62% (95% CI: - 8.85, - 0.20%) and - 7.83% (95% CI: - 14.77, - 0.34%), respectively. No associations were found between mental health and TL. CONCLUSIONS In this large-scale study, we showed the positive association between a healthy lifestyle and both biological ageing and different dimensions of mental health and well-being. We also indicated that living a healthy lifestyle contributes to more favourable biological ageing.

Abstract
Purpose To explore the association between waist circumference (WC), estimated cardiopulmonary function (eCRF), and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in southern Xinjiang. Update the Framingham model to make it more suitable for the southern Xinjiang population. Methods Data were collected from 7705 subjects aged 30–74 years old in Tumushuke City, the 51st Regiment of Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps. CVD was defined as an individual's first diagnosis of non-fatal acute myocardial infarction, death from coronary heart disease, and fatal or non-fatal stroke. The Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to analyze the association between WC, eCRF and CVD risk. Restricted cubic spline plots were drawn to describe the association of the two indicators with CVD risk. We update the model by incorporating the new variables into the Framingham model and re-estimating the coefficients. The discrimination of the model is evaluated using AUC, NRI, and IDI metrics. Model calibration is evaluated using pseudo R2 values. Results WC was an independent risk factor for CVD (multivariate HR: 1.603 (1.323, 1.942)), eCRF was an independent protective factor for CVD (multivariate HR: 0.499 (0.369, 0.674)). There was a nonlinear relationship between WC and CVD risk (nonlinear χ2 = 12.43, P = 0.002). There was a linear association between eCRF and CVD risk (non-linear χ2 = 0.27, P = 0.6027). In the male, the best risk prediction effect was obtained when WC and eCRF were added to the model (AUC = 0.763((0.734,0.792)); pseudo R2 = 0.069). In the female, the best risk prediction effect was obtained by adding eCRF to the model (AUC = 0.757 (0.734,0.779); pseudo R2 = 0.107). Conclusion In southern Xinjiang, WC is an independent risk factor for CVD. eCRF is an independent protective factor for CVD. We recommended adding WC and eCRF in the male model and only eCRF in the female model for better risk prediction.

The added value of remote technology in cardiac rehabilitation on physical function, anthropometrics, and quality of life: a cluster randomized controlled trial (Preprint).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) cause most deaths globally and can reduce quality of life (QoL) of rehabilitees with cardiac disease. The risk factors of CVDs are physical inactivity and increased BMI. With physical activity, it is possible to prevent CVDs, improve QoL, and help maintain a healthy body mass. Current literature shows the possibilities of digitalization and advanced technology in supporting independent self-rehabilitation. However, the interpretation of the results is complicated owing to the studies' high heterogeneity. In addition, the added value of this technology has not been studied well, especially in cardiac rehabilitation. OBJECTIVE We aimed to examine the effectiveness of added remote technology in cardiac rehabilitation on physical function, anthropometrics, and QoL in rehabilitees with CVD compared with conventional rehabilitation. METHODS Rehabilitees were cluster randomized into 3 remote technology intervention groups (n=29) and 3 reference groups (n=30). The reference group received conventional cardiac rehabilitation, and the remote technology intervention group received conventional cardiac rehabilitation with added remote technology, namely, the Movendos mCoach app and Fitbit charge accelerometer. The 12 months of rehabilitation consisted of three 5-day in-rehabilitation periods in the rehabilitation center. Between these periods were two 6-month self-rehabilitation periods. Outcome measurements included the 6-minute walk test, body mass, BMI, waist circumference, and World Health Organization QoL-BREF questionnaire at baseline and at 6 and 12 months. Between-group differences were assessed using 2-tailed t tests and Mann-Whitney U test. Within-group differences were analyzed using a paired samples t test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test. RESULTS Overall, 59 rehabilitees aged 41 to 66 years (mean age 60, SD 6 years; n=48, 81% men) were included in the study. Decrement in waist circumference (6 months: 1.6 cm; P=.04; 12 months: 3 cm; P<.001) and increment in self-assessed QoL were greater (environmental factors: 0.5; P=.02) in the remote technology intervention group than the reference group. Both groups achieved statistically significant improvements in the 6-minute walk test in both time frames (P=.01-.03). Additionally, the remote technology intervention group achieved statistically significant changes in the environmental domain at 0-6 months (P=.03) and waist circumference at both time frames (P=.01), and reference group achieve statistically significant changes in waist circumference at 0-6 months (P=.02). CONCLUSIONS Remote cardiac rehabilitation added value to conventional cardiac rehabilitation in terms of waist circumference and QoL. The results were clinically small, but the findings suggest that adding remote technology to cardiac rehabilitation may increase beneficial health outcomes. There was some level of systematic error during rehabilitation intervention, and the sample size was relatively small. Therefore, care must be taken when generalizing the study results beyond the target population. To confirm assumptions of the added value of remote technology in rehabilitation interventions, more studies involving different rehabilitees with cardiac disease are required.

[PMID: 37990729 PMCID: PMC10661986 DOI: 10.1016/j.obpill.2022.100024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2022] [Revised: 06/19/2022] [Accepted: 06/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2023]
Abstract
Background Phentermine is a sympathomimetic amine, approved for "short-term"treatment of patients with obesity. Among phentermine contraindications include use in patients with cardiovascular disease or patients with uncontrolled hypertension. Methods This roundtable discussion includes perspectives from 3 obesity specialists with experience in the clinical use of phentermine. The questions asked of the panelists were derived from publications regarding phentermine safety and efficacy. Results While the panelists generally agreed upon core principles of phentermine use, each obesity specialist had their own priorities and style regarding the administration of phentermine. Among the variances in perceptions (based upon their individual "real world" clinical experiences) included the degree of efficacy and degree of clinical benefit of phentermine, degree of concern regarding phentermine use in patients with cardiovascular disease risk factors, the advisability of a screening electrocardiogram, and the role of telehealth in prescribing phentermine and monitoring for the efficacy and safety of phentermine. Conclusions Providing universal guidance regarding phentermine treatment for obesity is challenging because of the lack of long-term, prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, health outcomes data. Such data is unlikely forthcoming any time soon. Also challenging are the substantial variances in governmental restrictions on phentermine use. Therefore, clinicians are left to rely on the best available evidence, their individual practical clinical experience, as well as the collective clinical experiences of others - as reflected by this roundtable.

Achievements of primary prevention targets in individuals with high risk of cardiovascular disease: an 8-year follow-up of the Tromsø study. EUROPEAN HEART JOURNAL OPEN 2022; 2:oeac061. [PMID: 36284643 PMCID: PMC9583183 DOI: 10.1093/ehjopen/oeac061] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2022] [Revised: 08/05/2022] [Accepted: 09/20/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Aims To study change over 8 years in cardiovascular risk, achievement of national guideline-based treatment targets of lipids, blood pressure (BP) and smoking in primary prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD), medication use, and characteristics associated with target achievement among individuals with high CVD risk in a general population. Methods and results We followed 2524 women and men aged 40-79 years with high risk of CVD attending the population-based Tromsø study in 2007-08 (Tromsø6) to their participation in the next survey in 2015-16 (Tromsø7). We used descriptive statistics and regression models to study change in CVD risk and medication use, and characteristics associated with treatment target achievement. In total, 71.4% reported use of BP- and/or lipid-lowering medication at second screening. Overall, CVD risk decreased during follow-up, with a larger decrease among medication users compared with non-users. Treatment target achievement was 31.0% for total cholesterol <5 mmol/L, 27.3% for LDL cholesterol <3 mmol/L, 43.4% for BP <140/90 (<135/85 if diabetes) mmHg, and 85.4% for non-smoking. A total of 9.8% reached all treatment targets combined. Baseline risk factor levels and current medication use had the strongest associations with treatment target achievement. Conclusion We found an overall improvement in CVD risk factors among high-risk individuals over 8 years. However, guideline-based treatment target achievement was relatively low for all risk factors except smoking. Medication use was the strongest characteristic associated with achieving treatment targets. This study has demonstrated that primary prevention of CVD continues to remain a major challenge.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE After kidney transplantation, there is an overall increase in weight, which may increase the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and graft loss. But, not all patients gain weight, and the impact on the graft of this different evolution has not been well studied. The objective was to determine the causes of this different evolution and its effect on the graft. PATIENTS AND METHODS Retrospective single-center cohort study of 201 patients followed up after transplantation, analyzing the determinants of the variation in weight at one year using logistic regression, and its effect on graft survival at the end of follow-up using Cox regression. RESULTS Globally, there was an average weight gain of 4.5 kg in the first year, but 26.6% lost weight. 37.2% increased their BMI, while 9.5% decreased it. The determinants of the different evolution of weight were age (OR for every 10 years: 0.6, p = 0.002), previous dialysis modality (ref. hemodialysis) (OR 0.3, p = 0.003), and BMI before transplantation (OR 0.9, p = 0.017). The different evolution of weight did not influence the final situation of the graft. The BMI at one year did influence as a continuous variable (HR 1.3, p = 0.003), and obesity, with a worse evolution (HR 7.0, p = 0.025). CONCLUSIONS Although not all patients gain weight after kidney transplantation, the different evolution of weight does not influence graft survival.

Abstract
Background: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although obesity is a risk factor for ACS, decreased mortality has been shown in overweight individuals. This study aims to determine the association of body fat parameters such as body fat percentage (BFP), relative fat mass (RFM), and coronary thrombus burden with angiographic thrombotic grade in a series of patients presenting with ACS. Methods: Three hundred ninety patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention were enrolled in the study. BFP was calculated using the U.S. Navy formula. RFM index was calculated using gender, height, and waist circumference regardless of weight. Body mass index (BMI) is calculated as the weight in kilograms divided by the square of body length in meters (kg/m2). Two experienced interventional cardiologists reviewed coronary angiograms according to the TIMI thrombus scale. Patients were divided into groups according to thrombus classification and clinical status. Results: RFM, which is an anthropometric measurement parameter for obesity, was inversely related to thrombus burden in patients with ACS. There were no significant differences between ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) groups according to demographic, clinical characteristics, and coronary risk factors. Likewise, RFM, BFP, and BMI were comparable between the two groups. BFP and RFM were lower in patients with thrombus present STEMI group compared with no thrombus group. Thrombus presence was also compared in the NSTEMI group, and BMI, BFP, and RFM were lower in patients with thrombus present NSTEMI group. Conclusions: Our analysis demonstrated that RFM was better than BFP and BMI for predicting thrombus presence in patients with ACS.

Exploring the role of systemic immune-inflammation index and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio in cardiovascular risk stratification for patients with hidradenitis suppurativa: A cross-sectional study. J Dermatol 2022; 49:1238-1244. [PMID: 36000267 DOI: 10.1111/1346-8138.16558] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2022] [Revised: 07/28/2022] [Accepted: 08/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the hair follicle that has previously been associated with a higher cardiovascular risk (CVR). Although different methods have been described for CVR stratification in HS, there is little evidence about the role of hemogram indexes in CVR in HS. Given its potential convenience, the aim of this study was to assess the role of the hemogram indexes systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in CVR stratification for patients with HS. A cross-sectional study was performed to assess the role of SII and NLR in CVR stratification in patients with moderate to severe HS who were candidates for biologic therapy. SII, NLR, carotid intima-media thickness, and other clinical and biochemical CVR factors were assessed before the start of the treatment. Fifty patients were included. The male:female ratio was 3:2, and the mean International Hidradenitis Suppurativa Severity Score System score was 21.6. After multivariate analysis, SII correlated with higher values of systolic blood pressure, metabolic syndrome, and higher risk of insulin resistance (p < 0.05). NLR was associated with insulin resistance (p < 0.05). These associations were independent of age, sex, body mass index, severity of the disease, and tobacco consumption. The implementation of SII and NLR in daily practice may be of benefit for identifying patients with HS at higher risk of high blood pressure, insulin resistance, or metabolic syndrome. Since these indexes are simple to calculate, they could be used as a screening tool in HS-specific units.

Abstract
The lymphatic vessels play an essential role in maintaining immune and fluid homeostasis and in the transport of dietary lipids. The discovery of lymphatic endothelial cell-specific markers facilitated the visualization and mechanistic analysis of lymphatic vessels over the past two decades. As a result, lymphatic vessels have emerged as a crucial player in the pathogenesis of several cardiovascular diseases, as demonstrated by worsened disease progression caused by perturbations to lymphatic function. In this review, we discuss the major findings on the role of lymphatic vessels in cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, obesity, atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, and heart failure.

Abstract
Dietary and lifestyle evolutionary discordance is hypothesised to play a role in the aetiology of CVD, including CHD and stroke. We aimed to investigate associations of a previously reported, total (dietary plus lifestyle) evolutionary-concordance (EC) pattern score with incident CVD, CHD and stroke. We used multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression to investigate associations of the EC score with CVD, CHD and stroke incidence among USA Black and White men and women ≥45 years old in the prospective REasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke study (2003-2017). The EC score comprised seven equally weighted components: a previously reported dietary EC score (using Block 98 FFQ data) and six lifestyle characteristics (alcohol intake, physical activity, sedentary behaviour, waist circumference, smoking history and social network size). A higher score indicates a more evolutionary-concordant dietary/lifestyle pattern. Of the 15 467 participants in the analytic cohort without a CVD diagnosis at baseline, 1563 were diagnosed with CVD (967 with CHD and 596 with stroke) during follow-up (median 11·0 years). Among participants in the highest relative to the lowest EC score quintile, the multivariable-adjusted hazards ratios and their 95 % CI for CVD, CHD and stroke were, respectively, 0·73 (0·62, 0·86; Ptrend < 0·001), 0·72 (0·59, 0·89; Ptrend < 0·001) and 0·76 (0·59, 0·98; Ptrend = 0·01). The results were similar by sex and race. Our findings support that a more evolutionary-concordant diet and lifestyle pattern may be associated with lower risk of CVD, CHD and stroke.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1), a major component of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), is a protective factor against cardiovascular disease (CVD). A recent epidemiological study found an association between neuropeptide Y (NPY) gene polymorphism and serum HDL levels. However, the direct effect of NPY on ApoA1 expression remains unknown. This study was designed to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the NPY-mediated regulation of hepatic ApoA1. METHODS Serum ApoA1, total cholesterol, and HDL-c and hepatic ApoA1 levels were measured after intraperitoneal administration of NPY or an NPY Y5 receptor (NPY5R) agonist in vivo. HepG2 and BRL-3A hepatocytes were treated in vitro with NPY in the presence or absence of NPY receptor antagonists, agonists, or signal transduction pathway inhibitors. Subsequently, the protein and mRNA expression of cellular and secreted ApoA1 were determined. RESULTS NPY considerably upregulated hepatic ApoA1 expression and stimulated ApoA1 secretion, both in vivo and in vitro. NPY5R inhibition blocked NPY-induced upregulation of ApoA1 expression, and NPY5R activation stimulated ApoA1 expression and secretion in hepatocytes. Moreover, extracellular signal-regulated protein kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2) and protein kinase A (PKA) inhibition almost completely blocked the upregulation of ApoA1 expression and secretion induced by NPY5R. CONCLUSIONS For the first time, we demonstrated that NPY5R activation promotes hepatic ApoA1 synthesis and secretion through the ERK1/2 and PKA signal transduction pathways. Thus, NPY5R may be a potential therapeutic target for treating CVD by promoting cholesterol reverse transport.

Abstract
The obesity epidemic has been linked to the worsening diabetes epidemic. Despite this, weight reduction for individuals with obesity is seen as a secondary, or even tertiary, consideration in the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D). The aim of this review is to examine the benefits of weight management in individuals with T2D. A literature review of current available published data on the benefits of weight reduction in individuals with T2D was conducted. In individuals with T2D who have obesity or overweight, modest and sustained weight reduction results in improvement in glycaemic control and decreased utilization of glucose-lowering medication. A total body weight loss of 5% or higher reduces HbA1c levels and contributes to mitigating risk factors of cardiovascular disease, such as hyperlipidaemia and hypertension, as well as other disease-related complications of obesity. Progressive improvements in glycaemic control and cardiometabolic risk factors can occur when the total body weight loss increases to 10% or more. In the approach to treating patients with T2D and obesity, prioritizing weight management and the use of therapeutics that offer glycaemic control as well as the additional weight loss should be emphasized given their potential to attenuate the progression and severity of T2D.

Abstract
CONTEXT Male Sprague-Dawley rats consuming a moderately high-fat (MHF)-diet diverge into obesity-prone (OP) with hypertension and obesity-resistant. OBJECTIVES To study the temporal inter-relationships between body-weight, obesity-index, plasma lipid-profile, renal functional parameters and systolic-pressure alterations during 10-weeks feeding MHF or normal diet to male and female rats. METHODS Body-weight, obesity-index and systolic-pressure were measured weekly, while metabolic-cage and blood-sampling protocols were performed every other week. After 10-weeks, renal excretory responses to acute salt-loading and renal autoregulation were examined. RESULTS The male-OP group had progressively increased body-weight, plasma-triglyceride and systolic-pressure from Weeks 2, 4 and 5, respectively, lower renal sodium-excretion at weeks 4-8 and finally, delayed excretory response to salt-loading and rightward and downward shifts in renal autoregulatory curves compared to all other groups. CONCLUSION Feeding the MHF-diet in male-OP rats led to a greater weight-gain and adiposity followed by the development of atherogenic-hyperlipidaemia and persistently impaired pressure-natriuresis to induce hypertension.

Abstract
Published reports of workplace-based weight management interventions are often poorly described and are focused on dietary, physical, and behavioral management. These strategies are often unsustainable and only have short-term effectiveness. The Mind-SLIMSHAPETM is a mindfulness-integrated multidisciplinary intervention developed to address overweight and obesity problems among desk-bound employees while improving weight-related behavior through mindfulness meditation and mindful eating exercises. The integration of mindfulness and mindful eating aims to improve the individual’s focus on the present and heighten their sensitivity towards internal and external eating cues. The aim of this article is to describe the Mind-SLIMSHAPETM intervention program using The Template for Intervention Description and Replication (TIDieR) checklist. The Mind-SLIMSHAPETM module is a 24-week intervention program that was delivered in a quasi-experimental study among employees with BMI ≥ 25.0 kg/m² in a selected higher learning institution. The module was delivered via hybrid sessions that included both face-to-face and virtual online sessions. The novelty of our description includes summaries of each intervention component with its intensity, details of the theory grounded for this program, and the rationale for the intervention components. The Mind-SLIMSHAPETM module is ready to be implemented and replicated in a similar setting with possible refinement and enhancement of the mindfulness and mindful eating elements.

Abstract
Chlorella has been identified as a rich source of unsaturated fatty acids. Since the antiobesity effects of unsaturated fatty acids have been well documented; therefore, we explored the antiobesity actions of chlorella unsaturated fatty acids (C.UFAs) in the current study. The obtained results demonstrated C.UFAs, which contain abundant linoleic acid, could retard body weight gain (reducing body weigh by 13.93% after 16 weeks of treatment), improve blood glucose (19.29% lower) and lipid profile (23.45% lower in TG, 8.76% lower in TC) compared to high-fat diet-fed C57BL/6J mice. The possible underlying mechanisms might involve reducing hepatic lipid accumulation via down-regulation of lipogenic genes (PPARγ, C/EBPα, LPL, aP2, FAS, and SREBP-1c) and up-regulation of lipolytic gene (adiponectin). We also demonstrate C.UFAs could reduce HFD-induced adipocyte hypertrophy via activation of AMPK signaling pathway in adipose tissue and liver. In summary, our study highlights the potential of C.UFAs as a functional food for obesity management. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Chlorella has already been commercialized as a functional food antiobesity function. In the current study, the unsaturated fatty acids isolated from chlorella were found to exert beneficial effects on hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, hepatic steatosis, and adipocyte hypertrophy in high-fat diet-fed mice. This may provide theoretical foundation for developing novel chlorella-based functional foods.

Barber TM, Kabisch S, Randeva HS, Pfeiffer AFH, Weickert MO. Implications of Resveratrol in Obesity and Insulin Resistance: A State-of-the-Art Review. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14142870. [PMID: 35889827 PMCID: PMC9320680 DOI: 10.3390/nu14142870] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2022] [Revised: 07/07/2022] [Accepted: 07/11/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Resveratrol is a polyphenol chemical that naturally occurs in many plant-based dietary products, most notably, red wine. Discovered in 1939, widespread interest in the potential health benefits of resveratrol emerged in the 1970s in response to epidemiological data on the cardioprotective effects of wine. Objective: To explore the background of resveratrol (including its origins, stability, and metabolism), the metabolic effects of resveratrol and its mechanisms of action, and a potential future role of dietary resveratrol in the lifestyle management of obesity. Data sources: We performed a narrative review, based on relevant articles written in English from a Pubmed search, using the following search terms: “resveratrol”, “obesity”, “Diabetes Mellitus”, and “insulin sensitivity”. Results: Following its ingestion, resveratrol undergoes extensive metabolism. This includes conjugation (with sulfate and glucuronate) within enterocytes, hydrolyzation and reduction within the gut through the action of the microbiota (with the formation of metabolites such as dihydroresveratrol), and enterohepatic circulation via the bile. Ex vivo studies on adipose tissue reveal that resveratrol inhibits adipogenesis and prevents the accumulation of triglycerides through effects on the expression of Peroxisome Proliferator-activated Receptor γ (PPARγ) and sirtuin 1, respectively. Furthermore, resveratrol induces anti-inflammatory effects, supported by data from animal-based studies. Limited data from human-based studies reveal that resveratrol improves insulin sensitivity and fasting glucose levels in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and may improve inflammatory status in human obesity. Although numerous mechanisms may underlie the metabolic benefits of resveratrol, evidence supports a role in its interaction with the gut microbiota and modulation of protein targets, including sirtuins and proteins related to nitric oxide, insulin, and nuclear hormone receptors (such as PPARγ). Conclusions: Despite much interest, there remain important unanswered questions regarding its optimal dosage (and how this may differ between and within individuals), and possible benefits within the general population, including the potential for weight-loss and improved metabolic function. Future studies should properly address these important questions before we can advocate the widespread adoption of dietary resveratrol supplementation.

Abstract
The function of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) can be achieved through the regulation of target genes, and the deposition of fat is regulated by lncRNA. Fat has an important effect on meat quality. However, there are relatively few studies on lncRNAs in the subcutaneous adipose tissue of Duolang sheep and Small Tail Han sheep. In this study, RNA-Seq technology and bioinformatics methods were used to identify and analyze the lncRNA and mRNA in the subcutaneous adipose tissue of the two breeds of sheep. The results showed that 107 lnRNAs and 1329 mRNAs were differentially expressed. The differentially expressed genes and lncRNA target genes were significantly enriched in the biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids signaling pathway, fatty acid metabolism, adipocyte differentiation and other processes related to fat deposition. Among them, LOC105616076, LOC114118103, LOC105607837, LOC101116622, and LOC105603235 target FADS1, SCD, ELOVL6, HSD17B12 and HACD2, respectively. They play a key regulatory role in the biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids. This study lays a foundation for the study of the molecular mechanism of lncRNA on fat development, and has reference value for studying the differences in fat deposition between Duolang sheep and Small Tail Han sheep.

Abstract
Macrophages are a population of immune cells functioning in antigen presentation and inflammatory response. Research has demonstrated that macrophages belong to a cell lineage with strong plasticity and heterogeneity and can be polarized into different phenotypes under different microenvironments or stimuli. Many macrophages can be recruited by various cytokines secreted by adipose tissue. The recruited macrophages further secrete various inflammatory factors to act on adipocytes, and the interaction between the two leads to chronic inflammation. Previous studies have indicated that adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs) are closely related to metabolic diseases like obesity and diabetes. Here, we will not only conclude the current progress of factors affecting the polarization of adipose tissue macrophages but also elucidate the relationship between ATMs and human diseases. Furthermore, we will highlight its potential in preventing and treating metabolic diseases as immunotherapy targets.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) is a proinflammatory factor. The expression of BMP4 is reduced in the adipose and enhanced in the myocardium and vascular during obesity. It is possibly involved in the process of inflammatory response of the myocardium and vascular. Obesity, often regarded as a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, is a kind of inflammatory response. This study aimed to investigate the relationship of BMP4 with obesity and cardiovascular disease. Ob/ob mice were used as the experimental group, and C57BL/6 mice were used as the control group. The two groups were further divided into 2 subgroups based on the mice carrying adenovirus-encoding shRNA for BMP4 or Lac Z genes. The messenger RNA and protein levels of BMP4, interleukin-1β, and interleukin-9 were significantly higher in the myocardial tissue and aorta of ob/ob+ Lac Z shRNA than those in the other 3 groups, whereas the levels in the ob/ob+ BMP4 shRNA group were significantly decreased and comparable with those in the control groups. BMP4 is significantly upregulated in the myocardial tissue and aorta of obese mice, and this suggests that BMP4 is an risk factor involved in the local inflammatory response.

Abstract
This study examined the association of obesity and dyslipidemia according to body measurements among Chinese adults in Shanghai, a place in the process of rapid urbanization. Using the baseline data of the Shanghai Suburban Adult Cohort and Biobank study (SSACB), the subjects completed questionnaires and physical examinations, and fasting blood was collected for biochemical assays. We estimated the odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) by multivariable logistic regression. The prevalence was 12.9% and 28.8% in both general and central obesity, respectively. Compared with the non-obese, the general or central obesity participants had a higher level of TC, TG, LDL-C and lower level of HDL-C. The OR (95%CI) for dyslipidemia was 1.79 (1.69–1.91) and 1.91 (1.83–2.00) in general or central obesity, respectively. Positive associations were also observed between obesity and high TC, high LDL-C, low HDL-C and high TG, with the adjusted OR ranging from 1.11 to 2.00. Significant modifying effect of gender, age, hypertension, and diabetes were found in the association of obesity and different forms of dyslipidemia. The findings of our study indicated that participants with obesity, including general or central obesity, have a higher prevalence of dyslipidemia and gender, age, hypertension, and diabetes might be potential modifiers of the association. More effective attention and interventions should be directed to managing body weight to reduce the prevalence of dyslipidemia.

Abstract
Background As polypharmacy has some medically negative impacts, it has become a challenging issue for public health and affected people. Therefore, we decided to investigate the prevalence of polypharmacy and its predicting risk factors in the Azar cohort population. Methods In this cross-sectional population-based cohort study, the prevalence of polypharmacy was evaluated in 15,001 subjects who participated in the Azar cohort study. We measured demographic characteristics (age, gender, socioeconomic status, smoking status, marital status, and education level), physical activity level, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, multimorbidity (coexistence of two or more chronic diseases (CDs)), and polypharmacy status (a daily intake of five or more medicines for a minimum of 90 days). Results Based on our results, 9.51% of the population had polypharmacy. The five most prescribed medications were drugs acting on the cardiovascular system (19.9%), central nervous system (16.7%), endocrine system (13.3%), NSAIDs (11.5%), and drugs used for musculoskeletal and joint diseases (11.4%). Being female, illiterate, and having the lowest tertile of physical activity level significantly increased the risk of polypharmacy. The risk of polypharmacy was 49.36 times higher in patients with four or more CDs than in those without. Conclusions Our study emphasized the importance of routine monitoring to evaluate polypharmacy among those aged 35 to 59 and the elderly. Physicians should carefully assess drug suitability, especially in multimorbid and obese patients, to prevent excessive polypharmacy and its potentially negative impacts.

Abstract
In this study, we explored the utility of post-prandial vascular stiffness as a surrogate measure for the estimation of insulin resistance (IR), which is a pre-diabetic condition. A cohort of 51 healthy young adults of varying Body mass index values (BMI) were studied by fasting plasma values of insulin and glucose; fasting and post-meal finger photoplethysmography (PPG), and electrocardiogram (ECG). Insulin resistance was estimated by Homeostatic model assessment-Insulin resistance 2 (HOMA-IR2) using fasting plasma insulin and glucose. Vascular stiffness was estimated by reciprocal of pulse arrival time (rPAT) from ECG and finger PPG at five time points from fasting to 2-hours post oral glucose ingestion. We examined if insulin resistance is correlated with meal induced vascular stiffness changes supporting the feasibility of using finger PPG for the estimation of insulin resistance. HOMA-IR2 was found to be positively correlated with early rise (0- to 30- minutes post meal) and delayed fall (30- to 120-minutes) of rPAT. Correlation persisted even after the effect of BMI has been partialled out in sub-group analysis. We conclude that finger PPG based pulse waveform and single lead ECG has the potential to be used as a non-invasive method for the assessment of insulin resistance. As both signals viz., ECG and PPG can be easily acquired using wearable and other low-cost sensing systems, the present study can serve as a pointer for the development of accessible methods of monitoring and longitudinal tracking of insulin resistance in health and pathophysiological states.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy of adding ultrasound cavitation and radiofrequency versus cryolipolysis to weight reduction program on leptin, insulin, waist circumference, skinfold, body weight in central obese subjects. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixty centrally obese participants were randomly allocated into three equal groups. Subjects in the study group (I) received cavitation and radiofrequency plus dietary regimen, subjects in the second study group (II) received cryolipolysis in conjunction with the same diet program, and subjects in the control group (III) received the same dietary regimen only. Leptin, insulin level, waist circumference, skinfold, body weight, and body mass index were measured shortly before intervention techniques and 3 months afterward. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences between cavitation plus radiofrequency and cryolipolysis on leptin and insulin levels after 3 months of intervention. However, statistically significant differences were found in waist circumference, skinfold, weight reduction, and body mass index in favor of the cavitation group (p < 0.05). In addition, both cavitation-radiofrequency and cryolipolysis were statistically significantly different than the diet alone in favor of the study groups (p < 0.05) in all the outcome measures. Furthermore, there were statistically significant differences in all outcome measures (p < 0.05) when comparing the baseline and postintervention results in each group except for leptin level in the diet group (p = 0.14). CONCLUSION Subjects who underwent cavitation plus radiofrequency had better improvement on waist circumference, skinfold, and body mass index than subjects who received cryolipolysis. However, no differences were found between cavitation plus radiofrequency and cryolipolysis on leptin and insulin levels.

Abstract
Obesity is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, frequently related to oxidative stress and inflammation. Dietary antioxidant compounds improve heart health. Here, we estimate the oxidative grade and inflammation in the heart of dietary-induced obese (DIO) rats after exposure to a high-fat diet compared to a standard diet. The effects of tart cherry seed powder and seed powder plus tart cherries juice were explored. Morphological analysis and protein expressions were performed in the heart. The oxidative status was assessed by the measurement of protein oxidation and 4-hydroxynonenal in samples. Immunochemical and Western blot assays were performed to elucidate the involved inflammatory markers as proinflammatory cytokines and cellular adhesion molecules. In the obese rats, cardiomyocyte hypertrophy was accompanied by an increase in oxidative state proteins and lipid peroxidation. However, the intake of tart cherries significantly changed these parameters. An anti-inflammatory effect was raised from tart cherry consumption, as shown by the downregulation of analyzed endothelial cell adhesion molecules and cytokines compared to controls. Tart cherry intake should be recommended as a dietary supplement to prevent or counteract heart injury in obese conditions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Obesity is a chronic disease, which has significant health consequences and is a staggering burden to health care systems. Obesity can have harmful effects on the cardiovascular system, including heart failure, hypertension, coronary heart disease, and atrial fibrillation (AF). One of the possible substrates might be epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), which can be the link between AF and obesity. EAT is a fat deposit located between the myocardium and the visceral pericardium. Numerous studies have demonstrated that EAT plays a pivotal role in this relationship regarding atrial fibrillation. AREAS COVERED This review will focus on the role of obesity and the occurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) and examine the connection between these and epicardial adipose tissue (EAT). The first part of this review will explain the pathophysiology of EAT and its association with the occurrence of AF. Secondly, we will review bariatric and metabolic surgery and its effects on EAT and AF. EXPERT COMMENTARY In this review, the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and treatments methods of AF are explained. Secondly the effects on EAT were elucidated. Due to the complex pathophysiological link between EAT, AF, and obesity, it is still uncertain which treatment strategy is superior.
