Why low temperatures could help starve tumours of fuel
Cold exposure in mice activates brown fat to deny tumours glucose, and the future of extreme heatwaves. 00:45 How cold temperatures could starve tumoursA team of researchers have found that exposing mice to the cold could starve tumour cells of the blood glucose they need to thrive. They showed that the cold temperatures deprived the tumours of fuel by activating brown fat – a tissue that burns through glucose to keep body temperature up. The team also showed preliminary evidence of the effect occurring in one person with cancer, but say that more research is needed before this method can be considered for clinical use.R...

The Association of Bariatric Surgery With Risk of Cancer in Adults With Obesity
Observational data suggest that the risk of certain types of cancer may be increased in individuals with obesity and that this risk may be lower after bariatric surgery. JAMA Deputy Editor Gregory Curfman, MD, explores this in detail with Steven Nissen, MD, an author of a JAMA study on this topic, and Anita Courcoulas, MD, MPH, author of an accompanying editorial.
