The trend of obesity and inflammatory bowel disease in Australia and New Zealand: a bi‐nation cohort study

open access: yesInternal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The paradigm of inflammatory bowel disease is shifting from a malabsorptive, undernourished state to one where obesity is a prevalent comorbidity, yet large‐scale Australasian data are lacking. We conducted a retrospective, multicentre cohort study from the binational Crohns Colitis Care registry, highlighting a high prevalence of obesity and ...

The prevalence of frailty and associated factors in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and coronary heart disease: A cross‐sectional study

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
Among 217 participants, 43.8% were frail. Frailty was common among patients with T2DM and CHD. Blood glucose, BNP, anxiety, sleep duration, nutritional risk, history of PCI, and age were independently associated with frailty in patients with T2DM and CHD.

Associations of skeletal muscle mass and strength with arterial stiffness in type 2 diabetes

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
Lower skeletal muscle mass and lower handgrip strength were associated with higher arterial stiffness in individuals with type 2 diabetes. Assessment of both parameters may provide complementary information regarding vascular risk. ABSTRACT Sarcopenia is prevalent in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and may contribute to increased ...

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.
