Associations between weight-adjusted-waist index and infertility: Results from NHANES 2013 to 2020

Medicine, 2023
Female infertility is a significant problem for women of reproductive age worldwide. Obesity has been proven to pose a danger for infertility in women. Weight-adjusted waist circumference index (WWI) is a recently created biomarker of obesity, and this research aims to explore the relationship between female infertility and WWI.

Association between weight-adjusted-waist index and bowel habits

Scientific Reports
Obesity has become a global public health issue and is closely related to bowel habits. The Weight-Adjusted-Waist Index (WWI), a new indicator of obesity, provides a more accurate assessment of central obesity. This study aims to investigate the relationship between WWI and bowel habits.

Association between adiposity and systemic atherosclerosis: a protocol of a cross-sectional autopsy study. [PDF]

, 2016
IntroductionAdiposity has been associated with atherosclerosis in clinical studies. However, few autopsy studies have investigated this association, and they had only examined the coronary artery disease. Moreover, most studies had small sample sizes and

Associations of weight-adjusted-waist index and depression with secondary infertility

Frontiers in Endocrinology
BackgroundObesity and psychological factors were identified as risk factors for female infertility. The study investigated the correlation between WWI, depression, and secondary infertility, focusing on the potential mediating role of depression.MethodsAccording to the data from NHANES, this cross-sectional study used multiple regression analysis ...

Self‐Powered Flexible Triboelectric‐Gated Ion‐Gel Transistor for Neuromorphic Tactile Sensing and Human Activity Recognition

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A fully flexible ion‐gel‐gated graphene‐channel transistor driven by a triboelectric nanogenerator enables self‐powered tactile sensing and synaptic learning. Mimicking spike‐rate‐dependent plasticity, the device exhibits frequency‐selective potentiation and depression, supporting rate‐coded neuromorphic computation even under flex.
