Association between weight-adjusted-waist index and risk of cardiovascular diseases in United States adults: a cross-sectional study

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2023
Background As a new obesity-related index, the weight-adjusted-waist index (WWI) appears to be a good predictor of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in East Asian populations.

Towards a Compositional Framework for Describing Human Phenotypes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The Phenotype Assembly Method (PhenoAM) decomposes phenotype variables into measurable Features and typed Qualifiers, enabling standardized, machine‐readable Phenome Data Elements (PhenoDEs) that preserve measurement context. Applied in the International Human Phenome Project (IHPP), the framework yields 58 371 PhenoDEs and supports component‐level ...

Polarization‐Dependence of Nonlinear Optical Effects in Silicon: The Case of Ultrafast Processing

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
The dependence of the input polarization for the nonlinear optical propagation in silicon is investigated theoretically and experimentally. The perturbative regime is examined using pump‐probe shadowgraphy and nonlinear transmission, whereas the case of permanent laser‐induced modifications is addressed using a combination of Raman micro‐spectroscopy ...

Ixekizumab With Tirzepatide Achieved Greater Disease Control Than Ixekizumab Alone in Adults With Psoriatic Arthritis and Overweight or Obesity: Results From a Randomized Clinical Trial

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Overweight or obesity is prevalent in 72% to 82% of individuals with psoriatic arthritis (PsA). We assessed the efficacy and safety of ixekizumab (IXE) concomitantly administered with tirzepatide (TZP) compared with IXE alone in adult participants with active PsA and overweight with at least one weight‐related comorbidity or obesity.

Transcriptomic Profiling in Skeletal Muscle Identifies Associations With Knee Osteoarthritis: the Study of Muscle, Mobility and Aging (SOMMA)

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objectives The association between skeletal muscle gene expression and knee osteoarthritis (OA) was examined among older adult participants of the Study of Muscle, Mobility and Aging (SOMMA). Methods Inclusion criteria included knee radiographs and bulk RNA sequencing (RNAseq) in vastus lateralis muscle, resulting in 523 participants (56% female ...

Gender differences in weight-adjusted waist index in elderly inhabitants of a geriatric center

Folia Medica
Introduction and aim: Weight-adjusted waist index (WWI) represents a novel anthropometric measure for assessing obesity. Bearing in mind that there is insufficient data in the literature regarding gender differences in WWI values, the aim of the current study was to examine gender differences in WWI values among older adults.
