Long-Term effects of physical activity on weight loss, metabolic parameter and blood pressure in subjects undergoing bariatric surgery: a 5-year follow-up study.
bariatric surgery stands as an effective intervention for weight loss and improved metabolic control in obesity, although over time there is a proportion of weight regain and type-2-diabetes (T2D) relapse. Aims: to explore the role of physical activity (PA) after surgery and its impact on metabolic parameters during a 5-year follow-up. (Source: American Journal of Surgery)

Magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) outperforms acoustic force radiation impulse (ARFI) in predicting oesophageal varices in obese NAFLD cirrhosis
ConclusionIn obese NAFLD-CC, MRE-LSM is significantly higher in patients with varices. MRE combined with PC predicts EVs and HRVs with better accuracy than ARFI.Graphical abstract (Source: Abdominal Imaging)

Adding Short to Left Gastric Artery Embolization for the Treatment of Obesity: Safety and Effectiveness
ConclusionCombined SGA and LGA embolization is safe and effective to treat obesity. Larger studies are needed to determine whether SGA  + LGA embolization results in more significant weight loss than LGA embolization alone.Graphical Abstract (Source: CardioVascular and Interventional Radiology)

Obese patients with atrial fibrillation are more efficiently protected from thrombosis under warfarin or xabans compared to non-obese patients; a systematic review and Meta-analysis of six randomized controlled trials
Recommendations about proper anticoagulation in obese patients, body mass index (BMI)  > 30 kg/m2, are not yet clearly defined. Obese patients were included in randomized controlled trials comparing new anticoagulants (NOACs) with warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation or thromboembolism. (Source: Thrombosis Research)

Causal relationships of Helicobacter pylori and related gastrointestinal diseases on Type 2 diabetes: Univariable and Multivariable Mendelian randomization
ConclusionOur study found that H. pylori IgG antibody, H. pylori GroEL antibody, gastroduodenal ulcer and chronic gastritis are all related to t T2DM, and blood glucose level and obesity mediate the development of H. pylori GroEL antibody and gastroduodenal ulcer on T2DM, respectively. These findings may inform new prevention and intervention strategies for T2DM. (Source: PLoS One)

Novel anthropometric indicators of visceral obesity predict the severity of hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis
Obesity substantially contributes to the onset of acute pancreatitis (AP) and influences its progression to severe AP. Although body mass index (BMI) is a widely used anthropometric parameter, it fails to deli... (Source: Lipids in Health and Disease)

Superior suppression of serum estrogens during neoadjuvant breast cancer treatment with letrozole compared to exemestane
ConclusionTo the best of our knowledge, we present here for the first time a comprehensive and direct head-to-head, intra-patient-cross-over comparison of the aromatase inhibitor letrozole and the aromatase inactivator exemestane concerning their ability to suppress serum estrogen levels in vivo. All in all, our results clearly demonstrate that letrozole therapy results in a more profound suppression of serum E1 and E2 levels compared to exemestane.

Associations of the obesity gene FTO variant with complications and comorbidities in patients with type 1 diabetes
The increasing prevalence of childhood overweight and obesity is a severe health problem worldwide that contributes to the development of various comorbidities [1]. Type 1 diabetes (T1D) patients are especially vulnerable to such complications since the intensive insulin therapy is associated with weight gain, abdominal obesity, dyslipidaemia, hypertension, and the presence of atherosclerosis development features in imaging [2]. Although clinical factors associated with the disease and its treatment as well as lifestyle elements have been widely studied, various genetic loci are also known to play important role in the obe...

Cancers, Vol. 16, Pages 1617: Interaction of Colorectal Neoplasm Risk Factors and Association with Metabolic Health Status Focusing on Normal Waist-to-Hip Ratio in Adults
Conclusions: An increase in FRS and HbA1c or a positive H. pylori infection still warrants vigilance for colorectal adenoma risk when WHR is 0.9. These factors interacted with each other and were found to have a minimal decline in adenoma risk when considering the interaction between WHR and FRS. (Source: Cancers)
