Weight-Loss Surgery Dramatically Lowers the Risk of Early Death, a New Study Finds
For decades, doctors have known that losing weight can significantly lower risk of heart disease and by extension, reduce the risk of dying from heart-related events such as stroke and heart attack. Studies have shown that both lifestyle changes including diet and exercise as well as medications and weight-loss surgery can improve heart disease risk factors such as obesity and diabetes, for example, but data supporting the benefits of any of these approaches in actually lowering rates of heart events such as heart attack and atrial fibrillation, or in reducing early deaths from heart disease, have been less robust. The dat...

Cinnamon May Slow Progression To Type 2 Diabetes, Boston Study Finds
(CNN) — Cinnamon may improve blood sugar control in people with a condition known as prediabetes and may slow the progression to type 2 diabetes, according to a new pilot study of 51 people with elevated blood sugars.
“We are looking for safe, durable and cost-effective approaches to reduce the progression from prediabetes to type 2 diabetes,” said study author Dr. Giulio Romeo, a staff physician at Boston’s Joslin Diabetes Center and the division of endocrinology at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. The study published Tuesday in the Journal of the Endocrine Society.
“Our 12-week study sh...

No evidence Nordic diet prevents heart disease
Conclusion
This was a well-designed randomised controlled trial that took place across several Nordic locations. The study took careful clinical measures of elements of metabolic syndrome at several points during the trial, and used food diaries at regular intervals to check compliance to the assigned diet.
However, it provides no reliable proof that the ‘healthy’ Nordic diet is any better than the ‘average’ Nordic diet at improving components of metabolic syndrome and, in turn, no proof that it reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Importantly, this study found no significant results for its main aim (which...

Adiponectin, lipids and atherosclerosis
Purpose of review: Adiponectin is an adipokine with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antiatherogenic, pro-angiogenic, vasoprotective and insulin-sensitizing properties. Several factors may influence adiponectin levels, such as genetic polymorphisms, obesity / body fat distribution, diet and exercise as well as cardiovascular risk factors such as sleep deprivation and smoking as well as medications. Adiponectin has been proposed as a potential prognostic biomarker and a therapeutic target in patients with cardiometabolic diseases.
Recent findings: This narrative review discusses the associations of adiponectin with obesity-...

'Fat but fit' people may still be at risk of heart disease
Conclusion
This large, valuable study confirms that – as has long been thought – an increased BMI is linked with an increased risk of heart disease.
It shows that people with an obese BMI had a higher risk of heart disease, even if they didn't have other risk factors like high cholesterol and high blood pressure, proving that body fat is an independent risk factor.
That said, this study does have some limitations. For example, definitions of being metabolically unhealthy aren't entirely consistent with other definitions of metabolic syndrome.
This was also only assessed at the start of the study, and risk factors may...

Knock-out of a mitochondrial sirtuin protects neurons from degeneration in < i > Caenorhabditis elegans < /i >
by Rachele Sangaletti, Massimo D ’Amico, Jeff Grant, David Della-Morte, Laura Bianchi
Sirtuins are NAD⁺-dependent deacetylases, lipoamidases, and ADP-ribosyltransferases that link cellular metabolism to multiple intracellular pathways that influence processes as diverse as cell survival, longevity, and cancer growth. Sirtuins influence the extent of neuronal death in stroke. Howe ver, different sirtuins appear to have opposite roles in neuronal protection. InCaenorhabditis elegans, we found that knock-out of mitochondrial sirtuinsir-2.3, homologous to mammalian SIRT4, is protective in both chemical ischemia and hypera...

Association of Long-Term Exposure to Transportation Noise and Traffic-Related Air Pollution with the Incidence of Diabetes: A Prospective Cohort Study
Conclusion:
We found a positive association between residential transportation noise and diabetes, adding to the growing body of evidence that noise pollution exposure may be independently linked to metabolic health and should be considered when developing public health interventions. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP1279

Association between Exposure to p,p ′-DDT and Its Metabolite p,p′-DDE with Obesity: Integrated Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Conclusions:
We classified p,p′-DDT and p,p′-DDE as “presumed” to be obesogenic for humans, based on a moderate level of primary human evidence, a moderate level of primary in vivo evidence, and a moderate level of supporting evidence from in vivo and in vitro studies. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP527

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...

Glucagon treatment in type 1 diabetes -with focus on restoring plasma glucose during mild hypoglycemia
.
Dan Med J. 2018 Feb;65(2):
Authors: Ranjan A
Abstract
Type 1 diabetes is a chronic disease caused by an autoimmune destruction of the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas, leading to a condition with insulin deficiency and elevated blood glucose levels. Individuals with type 1 diabetes are therefore recommended to frequently inject insulin subcutaneously to keep near-normal blood glucose levels, preventing the progression and onset of diabetes-related complications, i.e. kidney failure, blindne...
