Comprehensive Evidence for Mortality and Underlying Morbidity Related to Visceral Fat Distribution

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Linking obesity to mortality is an intriguing and controversial topic. This study tried to comprehensively assess 8 adiposity surrogates and mortality association among middle‐to‐old‐aged adults to identify a superior one, and explore explanatory disorders. Data sources included the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), UK

Dietitian‐led very low‐calorie diet for preoperative rehabilitation in patients with obesity awaiting non‐bariatric elective laparoscopic surgery: A retrospective study

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Obesity increases the risks and complexity of laparoscopic surgeries. Preoperative very low‐calorie diets (VLCDs) can demonstrate significant preoperative weight loss. However, the optimal VLCD duration remains unclear. Excessive loss of muscle mass associated with VLCDs may elevate surgical and postoperative risks. This study aimed

Impact of a low‐carbohydrate diet on cardiometabolic parameters in individuals with and without diabetes: An 8‐year longitudinal study within the ELSA‐Brasil cohort

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Low‐carbohydrate diets (LCDs) are widely adopted for metabolic management, but their long‐term cardiometabolic effects in diverse populations remain unclear. We aimed to evaluate the association between self‐selected moderate LCD adherence and cardiometabolic parameters in individuals with and without diabetes.

The negative association between weight-adjusted-waist index and lung functions: NHANES 2007–2012

open access: yesPLOS ONE
Obesity is a common public health issue worldwide, and its negative impact on lung function has garnered widespread attention. This study sought to investigate the possible association between a new obesity metric, the weight-adjusted waist index (WWI), and lung functions, providing a basis for the monitoring and protection of lung functions.

Comparative Efficacy of Metabolic/Bariatric Surgery Versus GLP‐1 Receptor Agonists: A Network Meta‐Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

open access: yesObesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study compared the efficacy of metabolic/bariatric surgery (MBS) and GLP‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs), including dual GLP‐1/GIP analogues, for weight and metabolic outcomes in adults with obesity. Methods A network meta‐analysis of randomized controlled trials compared MBS or GLP‐1 RAs versus lifestyle intervention in adults ...

C/EBPα is Essential for Gonadal but Not Inguinal White Adipose Tissue Formation in Mice

open access: yesObesity, EarlyView.
Human genetics has linked the gene CEBPA to waist to hip ratio and adipose distribution. We generated mice with AdipoQ‐Cre driven deletion of Cebpa and found these mice to have a specific reduction in gonadal white adipose tissue and myriad other metabolic phenotypes.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea Following Bariatric Surgery: 20 Year Outcomes From the Swedish Obese Subjects Study

open access: yesObesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Bariatric surgery has been suggested to improve obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in short‐term studies, but long‐term evidence is limited. We evaluated remission and new onset of OSA over 20 years in participants from the Swedish Obese Subjects (SOS) study, comparing bariatric surgery with usual obesity care.
