Predicted fat mass and lean mass in relation to all-cause and cause-specific mortality

Mengyi Liu et al.

Summary: This study explores the association between predicted fat mass and lean mass with mortality in the US general population, finding that both fat mass and lean mass are independent predictors of overall and cause-specific mortality. Age was found to significantly modify the associations.

Muscle-strengthening activities are associated with lower risk and mortality in major non-communicable diseases: a systematic review and meta-analysis of cohort studies

Haruki Mamma et al.

Summary: There is an inverse association between muscle-strengthening activities and the risk of non-communicable diseases and mortality. Performing 30-60 minutes of muscle-strengthening activities per week can reduce the risk of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular disease, and total cancer. Combined muscle-strengthening and aerobic activities are also associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular disease, and total cancer.

Sex and population-specific cutoff values of muscle quality index: Results from NHANES 2011-2014

Lorena Cristina Curado Lopes et al.

Summary: This study aimed to develop sex and population-specific normative data and cutoff values for the muscle quality index (MQI). Analysis of data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2014 revealed differences in MQI values by sex and population studied. Men generally had lower MQI values compared to women, and non-Hispanic Asians had higher MQI values while non-Hispanic Blacks had lower values.

Resveratrol and neuroprotection: an insight into prospective therapeutic approaches against Alzheimer's disease from bench to bedside

Fahadul Islam et al.

Summary: Alzheimer's disease is a common cause of dementia and cognitive impairment without effective treatment. Resveratrol, with its neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties, has the potential to inhibit A beta peptide aggregation and toxicity in Alzheimer's patients, showing promising therapeutic efficacy in treating the disease and other neurodegenerative disorders.

Malnutrition outweighs the effect of the obesity paradox

Suriya Prausmueller et al.

Summary: The paradoxical association between high BMI and better outcome in heart failure patients is examined in this study. The researchers found that malnutrition significantly changes the impact of BMI on prognosis, with obese patients who are also malnourished having a worse outcome compared to well-nourished patients with normal weight.

Exploring the Impact of the Obesity Paradox on Lung Cancer and Other Malignancies

Lindsay Joyce Nitsche et al.

Summary: Many studies have indicated a link between obesity and negative health effects, including worse outcomes for cancer patients. However, some studies paradoxically suggest that obesity may actually have a survival benefit in certain types of cancer treatment. This relationship may be due to inadequate quantification of adiposity, enhanced immune response, and factors such as sex, medication use, and smoking. Accurate measurement of abdominal obesity is likely crucial in predicting prognosis. Understanding the factors contributing to the obesity paradox and its impact on lung cancer can aid in the treatment and prognosis of this disease and may lead to further research on the specific effects of obesity on cancer.

Multifaceted role of polyphenols in the treatment and management of neurodegenerative diseases

Fahadul Islam et al.

Summary: Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) are conditions in which the structure and function of neurons deteriorate over time. While genetic alterations can cause NDDs, there are various physiological systems that can trigger neurodegeneration. Oxidative stress has been linked to several NDDs such as Huntington's, Parkinson's, and Alzheimer's. Synthetic drugs are commonly used to treat NDDs but can have side effects. Studies have discovered natural components in plants that can treat NDDs with lesser side effects, such as polyphenols.

The Relationship of Physical Activity and Dietary Quality with Android Fat Composition and Distribution in US Adults

Furong Xu et al.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between physical activity, dietary quality, and android fat composition and distribution. The results showed that both physical activity and dietary quality were associated with a reduction in android fat. It is important to increase physical activity and improve dietary quality to prevent cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.

The obesity paradox is mostly driven by decreased noncardiovascular disease mortality in the oldest old in China: a 20-year prospective cohort study

Yuebin Lv et al.

Summary: This study reported the association between BMI and mortality risk in the oldest old population in China from 1998 to 2018. The findings showed reverse J-shaped associations between BMI and cardiovascular disease, non-cardiovascular disease, and all-cause mortality, with decreased risk in the overweight and mild obesity range. Overweight and obesity were significantly associated with decreased non-cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality, but not with cardiovascular disease mortality.

Ayse Zengin et al.

Summary: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of sarcopenia in adults from India and explore muscle-bone relationships. The results showed that Indian-specific cut-points were lower than existing definitions, emphasizing the necessity of appropriate cut-points for accurate sarcopenia assessment in ethnic populations. Sex differences in associations between muscle variables and areal bone mineral density were also observed, with greater positive associations in women than in men.

Targeting Mitochondria in Diabetes

Nina Krako Jakovljevic et al.

Summary: This review examines mitochondrial function in liver, muscle, and blood cells in the context of T2D, focusing on human studies. Results suggest that mitochondrial respiratory capacity could serve as a metabolic indicator, decreasing as the disease progresses but increasing after lifestyle and pharmacological interventions, leading to improved metabolic health. Novel therapeutics targeting mitochondria show potential for a more comprehensive approach in treating diabetes.
