Body composition phenotypes and chemoradiotherapy toxicity in women with cervical cancer: A prospective study
Rationale: Changes in body composition may increase the risk of chemotherapy toxicity events. We aimed to identify whether there is an association between body composition phenotypes and chemoradiotherapy outcomes. (Source: Clinical Nutrition ESPEN)

Preoperative leptin fat mass ratio is not a predictive factor of weight loss after bariatric surgery
Rationale: Leptino-resistance (LR) in obese patients may influence weight loss after bariatric surgery, as it decreases leptin ’s action on satiety and energy expenditure. Leptin Fat mass Ratio (LFR) reflects LR through high fat-mass-adjusted plasmatic leptin, and was studied here as a potential predictive factor of weight loss 24 months after bariatric surgery.

Possibility of perilipin5 as a therapeutic target for anti-obesity and anti-metabolic diseases
Rationale: Perilipin 5 (PLIN5) is present on the surface of lipid droplets and is involved in lipid droplet homeostasis by regulating fatty acid storage and release. However, the role of PLIN5 in the interaction mechanism between mitochondria and lipid droplets remains unclear. Therefore, investigating the role of PLIN5 in this process is crucial in understanding lipid metabolism homeostasis and its potential as a therapeutic target for treating obesity and metabolic diseases.

Caloric restriction and hepatic steatosis but not physical activity affect serum levels of the hepatokine Fetuin-A
Rationale: We investigated the hepatokine Fetuin-A as a possible biomarker for metabolic syndrome (MetS), non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFL), and as an indicator for lifestyle changes. However, relevant influencing factors on Fetuin-A levels are not fully elucidated to date. (Source: Clinical Nutrition ESPEN)

Prediction of gestational diabetes mellitus in the first trimester of pregnancy based on maternal variables and pregnancy biomarkers
Rationale: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is linked to several adverse outcomes for both pregnant women and their offspring. The aim of this study was to implement an early first trimester prediction model for the assessment of risk of GDM. (Source: Clinical Nutrition ESPEN)

Sex-dependent hypothalamic response in a diet-induced obesity murine model
Rationale: The hypothalamic inflammation is a key pathophysiological mechanism that links chronic consumption of lipids to the development of obesity and associated metabolic complications (Lee et al., 2020). However, the sex-dependent effects remain poorly studied. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the sex-dependent hypothalamic response to a high fat diet (HFD) in mice. (Source: Clinical Nutrition ESPEN)

Population PK and exposure-response (ER) analyses to support dosing of teduglutide in infant patients with short bowel syndrome (SBS)
Rationale: SBS is a malabsorption disorder resulting from a surgical resection of the bowel or a congenital condition. Patients with SBS, dependent on parenteral support (PS), may require long-term teduglutide. The PK and ER relationship in SBS infants were evaluated by a population modeling and simulation approach to support teduglutide dosing in this population. (Source: Clinical Nutrition ESPEN)

Body composition, the caloric requirement in various age groups of boys with duchenne muscular dystrophy
Rationale: The natural course of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is associated with the risk of developing overweight/obesity first, and then malnutrition. The study aimed to assess changes in nutritional status, body composition, biochemical parameters, and caloric requirement in different age groups of patients with DMD.

Serum myokine and bone turnover marker profile in prepubertal vegetarian children
Rationale: Vegetarian diets have several health benefits, but may also lead to inadequate intake of nutrients essential for maintaining muscle and bone status. Inadequate nutrient intake, particularly during infancy and childhood, may cause an imbalance in bone remodeling, leading to achieve lower bone mass. The aim of this study was to evaluate serum concentrations of myokines and bone metabolism markers in prepubertal children on vegetarian and omnivorous diets. (Source: Clinical Nutrition ESPEN)

The impact of malnutrition on outocomes of multisystem inflammatory syndrom due to COVID-19 in children
Rationale: Malnutrition increases the complications and mortality in critically-ill children. Gastrointestinal involvement of Covid-19 may mimic acute abdomen and complicated with multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C). The nutritional status at admission and its effect on outcome of children with MIS-C has not been evaluated. A retrospective study was performed to define the role malnutrition on outcomes of MIS-C.

Characterization of feeding behaviour in children developping obesity before the age of 6 years
Rationale: Obesity before 6 y of age is associated with unusual hyperphagia. Impulsivity may be observed. No study has assessed the feeding behavior (FB) of children with early onset obesity of different origin (hypothalamic or common obesity). We explored FB using self-questionnaires to identify specificities according to the etiology. (Source: Clinical Nutrition ESPEN)

Micronutrient status in children with short bowel syndrome
Rationale: Children with short bowel syndrome may be unable to absorb sufficient vitamins and trace elements. Weaning from parenteral (PN) to enteral (EN) nutrition is a particularly vulnerable period for micronutrient deficiencies due to the limited absorptive capacity and decreasing parenteral micronutrient supplementation.
