System biology approach intersecting diet and cell metabolism with pathogenesis of brain disorders
Publication date: Available online 27 July 2018Source: Progress in NeurobiologyAuthor(s): Fernando Gomez-Pinilla, Xia YangABSTRACTThe surge in meals high in calories has prompted an epidemic of metabolic disorders around the world such that the elevated incidence of obese and diabetic individuals is alarming. New research indicates that metabolic disorders pose a risk for neurological and psychiatric conditions including stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, Huntington’s disease, and depression, all of which have a metabolic component. These relationships are rooted to a dysfunctional interaction between molecular processes tha...

The Diabetes Self-management educational programs and their integration in the usual care: a systematic literature review
One of the public health challenges worldwide is diabetes mellitus (DM). It is the fifth leading cause of death in high-income countries, and rapidly becoming an epidemic in low and middle-income countries. The global number of adult people suffering from diabetes in 2014 was estimated at 422 million, and this number is expected to rise to 592 million by 2035, while 175 million people remain undiagnosed [1]. Diabetes care is expensive and the condition can lead to serious complications such as kidney failure, myocardial infarction, stroke, blindness and limb amputation [2].

The Global Epidemic of the Metabolic Syndrome
AbstractMetabolic syndrome, variously known also as syndrome X, insulin resistance, etc., is defined by WHO as a pathologic condition characterized by abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia. Though there is some variation in the definition by other health care organization, the differences are minor. With the successful conquest of communicable infectious diseases in most of the world, this new non-communicable disease (NCD) has become the major health hazard of modern world. Though it started in the Western world, with the spread of the Western lifestyle across the globe, it has become now...

GSE72278 A novel lineage of adipose tissue regulatory T cells controls obesity and insulin resistance
Contributors : Emilie Stolarczyk ; Charlotte Bailey ; Natividad Garrido-Mesa ; Paul Lavender ; Richard Jenner ; Graham Lord ; Jane HowardSeries Type : Genome binding/occupancy profiling by high throughput sequencingOrganism : Mus musculusThe epidemic of obesity and its associated systemic metabolic complications continues to increase. Adipose tissue (AT)-associated T cells have been proposed to play an important role in the regulation of bodyweight and insulin sensitivity with a link to Th1 or Th2 lineage specification. A specific subset of regulatory T cells (TREGS) plays a critical and non-redundant role in controlling s...

Atrial Fibrillation in Heart Failure: a Therapeutic Challenge of Our Times.
Authors: Batul SA, Gopinathannair R
Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) are growing cardiovascular disease epidemics worldwide. There has been an exponential increase in the prevalence of AF and HF correlating with an increased burden of cardiac risk factors and improved survival rates in patients with structural heart disease. AF is associated with adverse prognostic outcomes in HF and is most evident in mild-to-moderate left ventricular (LV) dysfunction where the loss of "atrial kick" translates into poorer quality of life and increased mortality. In the absence of underlying structural heart...

Associations between Greenness, Impervious Surface Area, and Nighttime Lights on Biomarkers of Vascular Aging in Chennai, India
Conclusion:
Greenness, ISA, and NTL were associated with increased SBP, DBP, and cPP, and with reduced FMD, suggesting a possible additional EVA pathway for the relationship between urbanization and increased CVD prevalence in urban India. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP541
