At what age should people with obesity start colorectal cancer screening?

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Early‐onset colorectal cancer (CRC) incidence is rising in the United States, Canada, and parts of Europe, even as rates in older adults stabilize or decline. Excess body weight, which is a known CRC risk factor, is a potential contributor to this trend.

Sensitive Period Analysis of Adulthood BMI and Cancer Risk: An Individual Participant Data Meta‐Analysis of Over 720,000 Participants in the ABACus 2 Consortium

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Over a dozen cancers have been associated with excess body mass index, primarily in mid‐to‐late adulthood. Whether obesity‐related cancer risk differs across adulthood remains unclear. Using the Sensitive Periods Model and super‐landmarking approaches, this study found that higher BMI increased obesity‐related cancer risk across ages 30–65.

Assessing the relationship between anthropometric indices and visceral adipose tissue: A cross-sectional study in a Qatari population

Journal of International Medical Research
Objective To evaluate how body mass index, waist circumference, waist-to-hip ratio, and waist-to-height ratio reflect visceral adipose tissue as measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and how these associations differ by sex and age in a Qatari ...

Systemic and Local Adiposity in the Bone Marrow Microenvironment Associated With Improved Prognosis in Hodgkin Lymphoma: Imaging and Molecular Analysis

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Schematic overview of systemic and bone marrow‐specific adiposity in Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL). Body Mass Index was associated with bone marrow (BM) involvement, relapse, and mortality (1). In contrast, increased yellow marrow density was associated with poorer prognosis (2).

The mitochondrial DNA copy number and ovary‐related reproductive disorders: A bidirectional two‐sample Mendelian randomization study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 112-120, April 2025.
Abstract Objective In the present study, a bidirectional two‐sample Mendelian randomization approach was utilized to explore potential causal relationships between mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNA‐CN) and ovary‐related reproductive disorders (ORRDs), including ovarian dysfunction, ovarian cyst, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), premature ovarian ...

Nonlinear association of triglyceride‐glucose body mass index with all‐cause mortality in postmenopausal women, a retrospective cohort study: Evidence from the 2001 to 2014 National Health and nutrition examination survey

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The triglyceride‐glucose body mass index (TyG‐BMI) is a novel indicator combining an insulin resistance proxy (TyG index) with adiposity. It remains unclear how TyG‐BMI relates to long‐term mortality risk in postmenopausal women, a group prone to metabolic changes after menopause.
