U-Net-Based Deep Learning Hybrid Model: Research and Evaluation for Precise Prediction of Spinal Bone Density on Abdominal Radiographs

open access: yesBioengineering
Osteoporosis is a metabolic bone disorder characterized by the progressive loss of bone mass, which significantly increases the risk of fractures. While dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is the standard technique for assessing bone mineral density, its ...

Association Between Locomotive Syndrome and Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease in a Health Examination Cohort: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesHepatology Research, EarlyView.
Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is associated with liver fat and other health problems. In this study of 7776 adults who underwent health examinations, early mobility impairment was more common in individuals with MASLD.

Waist‐to‐height ratio and renal dysfunction as independent correlates of low handgrip strength in patients with type 2 diabetes

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
In 1,468 patients with type 2 diabetes, central obesity (WHtR >0.5) neutralizes the protective effects of higher BMI on muscle strength. Concurrently, visceral adiposity and CKD impose an additive threat, maximizing low handgrip strength risk (aOR = 1.74). Combining WHtR and renal tracking optimizes clinical sarcopenia screening.

Clinical characteristics of Sarcopenic obesity in Japanese people with type 2 diabetes: A post hoc analysis of the sub‐cohort iDIAMOND study

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
Among participants aged 40–75 years, sarcopenic obesity was observed in 4.9% of those with T2D and 0.5% of non‐D individuals. Sarcopenic obesity is more prevalent in individuals with T2D and is associated with impaired physical QOL, reduced walking ability, and increased falls.

Evaluating 20% and 40% Inclusion of Sugary Former Foods in Pig Diets: Effects on Growth Performance, Feeding Behaviour, Carcass and Meat Quality Traits

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Former food products (FFP) are food industry leftovers that can be used as feed ingredients. We investigated the effects of sugary FFP on growth, feeding behaviour, carcass and meat quality of pigs fattened to a heavy weight. Three inclusion levels were tested: 0% (FFP‐0 = control), 20% (FFP‐20) and 40% (FFP‐40) FFP in grower (20–60 kg BW ...
