Hypertension in obesity represents a major global health challenge, closely linked to the global epidemics of obesity, type 2 diabetes and metabolic dysfunction. Excess adiposity contributes to elevated blood pressure through multiple, interrelated mechanisms, including activation of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system, sympathetic nervous system ...

ABSTRACT Background Frailty and sarcopenia may influence head and neck cancer (HNC) treatment outcomes, including dysphagia. Current understanding of this relationship, however, remains limited. This scoping review aimed to synthesize existing evidence on the relationship between frailty and/or sarcopenia and dysphagia in adults with HNC.
