SIRT6 Ameliorates Cancer Cachexia–Associated Adipose Wasting by Suppressing TNFR2 Signalling in Mice

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 1, February 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Cachexia is a wasting syndrome associated with imbalanced energy metabolism and loss of adipose and muscle tissues and contributes to morbidity and mortality in ageing as well as in patients with severe chronic diseases, including cancer. At present, there are no treatments addressing cachexia that have reached validation to be used

Weight/height2: Mathematical overview of the world's most widely used adiposity index

Obesity Reviews, Volume 26, Issue 1, January 2025.
Summary A footnote in Adolphe Quetelet's classic 1835 Treatise on Man described his algebraic analysis of how body weight ( W) varies with height ( H) in adult males and females. Using data on 12 short and 12 tall subjects of each sex, Quetelet established the rule that W is approximately proportional ( ∝) to H2 in adults; that is, W∝H2 when W≈αH2 for ...

The research progress on radionuclides in osteoporosis diagnosis and drug efficacy monitoring

Frontiers in Pharmacology
Osteoporosis is a common metabolic bone disease that seriously affects the quality of life and health of patients. Traditional diagnostic methods, such as dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), have limitations in early detection and dynamic monitoring,

Artificial neural network analysis of bone quality DXA parameters response to teriparatide in fractured osteoporotic patients.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Teriparatide is a bone-forming therapy for osteoporosis that increases bone quantity and texture, with uncertain action on bone geometry. No data are available regarding its influence on bone strain.

Radiomic‐based biomarkers: Transforming age and body composition metrics into personalized age‐informed indices

Clinical and Translational Science, Volume 17, Issue 12, December 2024.
Abstract Chronological age has been the standard for quantifying the aging process. While it is simple to quantify it cannot fully discern the biological variability of aging between individuals. The growing body of interest in this variability of human aging has led to the introduction of new biomarkers to operationalize biological age.
