New Advances in Metabolic Syndrome, from Prevention to Treatment: The Role of Diet and Food

Donatella Ambroselli et al.

Summary: The definition of metabolic syndrome (MetS) has changed over time due to the difficulty in establishing universal criteria. MetS is associated with a pro-inflammatory state related to altered glucose metabolism, leading to increased cardiovascular risk. Complications of MetS include cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Genetic factors, human microbiota, and diet play complex roles in the predisposition to MetS. This review summarizes the literature of the past decade on MetS, including its definition, pathophysiology, treatment approaches, prediction and diagnosis using advanced methodologies, and the role of specific foods in prevention and/or treatment.

Healthy plant-based diets improve dyslipidemias, insulin resistance, and inflammation in metabolic syndrome. A narrative review

Minu S. Thomas et al.

Summary: Plant-based diets have gained popularity as a dietary strategy for protection against chronic disease. However, the classification of these diets varies depending on their content. Some plant-based diets are considered healthy due to their high content of beneficial nutrients, while others are considered unhealthy due to high levels of sugar and saturated fat. The type of plant-based diet chosen can greatly impact its protective effects against disease.

Vicente Javier Clemente-Suarez et al.

Summary: Recent research suggests a strong link between the functioning of mitochondria and the development of cancer. Healthy mitochondria play a vital role in maintaining metabolic processes and controlling cell death, but inflammation can harm their function and lead to tissue damage. Engaging in both endurance and resistance exercises, in addition to maintaining an active lifestyle, can help improve mitochondrial functioning and reduce the risk of cancer.

Large-scale integration of DNA methylation and gene expression array platforms identifies both cis and trans relationships

Summary: Although epigenome-wide association studies (EWAS) have successfully identified DNA methylation patterns associated with disease, further understanding of the underlying mechanisms remains limited. The study finds issues with the interpretability of EWAS results due to study design problems and questions the validity of assuming a cis DNAm-gene expression pathway. It suggests that more multi-omic research is needed to identify genomic regions where gene expression-associated DNA methylation is overrepresented.

When the humiliation involves a woman's maternal identity with children as witnesses, women tend to seek social support, engage in wishful thinking, and seek professional support; when the humiliation involves body image, women tend to use wishful thinking, seek professional support, and demonstrate more autonomy. Women who react avoidantly tend to seek more social and professional support but experience higher discomfort and self-esteem deterioration.
