Background:“Weekend warrior” and regularly active physical activity patterns have been associated with reduced mortality risk in the general population. The association in patients with diabetes is unknown.Objective:To examine the associations of different physical activity patterns, particularly weekend warrior and regularly active behavior, with all-cause, cardiovascular, and cancer mortality among adults with diabetes.Design:Prospective cohort study.Setting:National Health… Continue reading Association of #Weekend #Warrior and Other Physical #Activity Patterns With #Mortality Among Adults With #Diabetes: A Cohort Study

Body #mass index and #breast cancer risk among #postmenopausal women with and without cardiometabolic diseases: Findings from two prospective cohort studies in Europe
BackgroundAdiposity, measured by body mass index (BMI), is a known risk factor for postmenopausal breast cancer. However, whether the association of BMI with breast cancer risk differs among women with and without cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) or type 2 diabetes (T2D) is uncertain.MethodsThis study used individual participant data from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and… Continue reading Body #mass index and #breast cancer risk among #postmenopausal women with and without cardiometabolic diseases: Findings from two prospective cohort studies in Europe
Later #eating #timing in relation to an individual internal clock is associated with lower #insulin sensitivity and affected by genetic factors
BackgroundAlthough the contribution of the circadian clock to metabolic regulation is widely recognized, the role of eating timing in glucose metabolism and diabetes risk remains insufficiently studied. This study aimed (i) to investigate the link between the eating timing pattern relative to individual clock and glucose homoeostasis and (ii) to explore the contribution of genetic… Continue reading Later #eating #timing in relation to an individual internal clock is associated with lower #insulin sensitivity and affected by genetic factors
Emerging and accumulating safety signals for the use of #estrogen among #transgender women
Efforts to alleviate the psychological distress of gender dysphoria have included the use of exogenous estrogen (often with anti-androgens) to alter secondary sex characteristics of natal males. In response to the rapid increase in presenting cases among young people, extensive scrutiny has now been brought to bear on these medical interventions for minors, with ESCAP… Continue reading Emerging and accumulating safety signals for the use of #estrogen among #transgender women
#Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists and Risk of Neovascular Age-Related #Macular #Degeneration
Importance Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are extensively used in treating diabetes and obesity, yet little is known about the long-term ocular effects of systemic prolonged exposure.Objective To evaluate the risk of developing neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) associated with the use of GLP-1 RAs in patients with diabetes.Design, Setting, and Participants This population-based,… Continue reading #Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists and Risk of Neovascular Age-Related #Macular #Degeneration
Short-Term Cardiometabolic Response to #Mango Intake in Post #menopausal #Women
Consumption of mangos has been associated with improved diet quality, with reported reductions in systolic blood pressure and inflammatory biomarkers when consumed daily in robust amounts for six to eight weeks. Whether these changes could occur with a shorter intake period is unknown.MethodsThis study explored the effect of two weeks of mango intake (330 g/d) on… Continue reading Short-Term Cardiometabolic Response to #Mango Intake in Post #menopausal #Women
Anti- #Obesity Effects of a #Collagen with Low Digestibility and High Swelling Capacity: A Human Randomized Control Trial
Background/Objectives: Collagen is a protein formed by very long amino acid chains. When conveniently treated, it can incorporate water into the net, thus increasing its volume and mass. The present work aimed to evaluate the potential anti-obesity effects of bovine collagen that has been technologically treated to increase its water retention capacity in an acid… Continue reading Anti- #Obesity Effects of a #Collagen with Low Digestibility and High Swelling Capacity: A Human Randomized Control Trial
Dietary #Sugar Intake and Incident Type 2 #Diabetes Risk: A Systematic Review and Dose-Response Meta-Analysis of Prospective Cohort Studies
The dose-response relationship between dietary sugar and type 2 diabetes (T2D) risk is uncertain. MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, Web of Science and Cochrane databases were searched through July 9, 2024 for prospective cohort studies reporting relative measures of incident T2D risk by categories of dietary sugar (total, free, added, fructose, sucrose) or 2 beverage sources (non-diet… Continue reading Dietary #Sugar Intake and Incident Type 2 #Diabetes Risk: A Systematic Review and Dose-Response Meta-Analysis of Prospective Cohort Studies
Low-Calorie, High-Protein Ketogenic #Diet Versus Low-Calorie, Low-Sodium, and High-Potassium Mediterranean Diet in Overweight Patients and Patients with #Obesity with High-Normal Blood Pressure or Grade I #Hypertension: The Keto–Salt Pilot Study
Background and Objective: Dietary interventions are the first-line treatment for overweight individuals (OW) and individuals with obesity (OB) with high-normal blood pressure (BP) or grade I hypertension, especially when at low-to-moderate cardiovascular risk (CVR). However, current guidelines do not specify the most effective dietary approach for optimising cardiovascular and metabolic outcomes in this population. This… Continue reading Low-Calorie, High-Protein Ketogenic #Diet Versus Low-Calorie, Low-Sodium, and High-Potassium Mediterranean Diet in Overweight Patients and Patients with #Obesity with High-Normal Blood Pressure or Grade I #Hypertension: The Keto–Salt Pilot Study
