Body Mass Index and Risks of More Than 40 Cause‐Specific Mortality in Chinese Women: A Prospective Cohort Study

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The health consequences of being underweight are less well‐studied than obesity. We aimed to examine the association between body mass index (BMI) and mortality from a wide range of diseases across the full BMI spectrum, with particular focus on how low BMI may affect premature and nonpremature death.

SIRT Family: Biological Functions and Therapeutic Targets

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
SIRT1–SIRT7 networks from transgenic mice to human‑relevant therapeutic targets. SIRT1–SIRT7 form an isoform‑, organ‑, and disease‑specific regulatory network. Transgenic Sirt1–7 mouse models define central regulatory SIRTs (SIRT1, SIRT3, SIRT6), context‑dependent modifiers (SIRT2, SIRT4, SIRT5, SIRT7), and their key mechanisms and target organs. These
