Background Remission of type 2 diabetes can occur as a result of weight loss and is characterised by liver fat and pancreas fat reduction and recovered insulin secretion. In this analysis, we aimed to investigate the mechanisms of weight loss- induced remission in people with prediabetes.MethodsIn this prespecified post-hoc analysis, weight loss-induced resolution of prediabetes… Continue reading Mechanisms of #weight loss-induced remission in people with #prediabetes: a post-hoc analysis of the randomised, controlled, multicentre Prediabetes Lifestyle Intervention Study (PLIS)

Vegetarian Dietary Patterns and Cardiometabolic Risk in People With or at High Risk of Cardiovascular DiseaseA Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
MPORTANCE Plant-based diets are known to improve cardiometabolic risk in the general population, but their effects on people at high risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain inconclusive.OBJECTIVE To assess the association of vegetarian diets with major cardiometabolic risk factors,including low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), systolic blood pressure (SBP), and body weight in people… Continue reading Vegetarian Dietary Patterns and Cardiometabolic Risk in People With or at High Risk of Cardiovascular DiseaseA Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
A history of repeated alcohol intoxication promotes cognitive impairment and gene expression signatures of disease progression in the 3xTg mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease
The impact of alcohol abuse on Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is poorly understood. Here, we show that the onset of neurocognitive impairment in a mouse model of AD is hastened by repeated alcohol intoxication through exposure to alcohol vapor, and we provide a comprehensive gene expression dataset of the prefrontal cortex by the single-nucleus RNA sequencing… Continue reading A history of repeated alcohol intoxication promotes cognitive impairment and gene expression signatures of disease progression in the 3xTg mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease
Moderate protein intake percentage in mice for maintaining metabolic health during approach to old age
Nutritional requirements for maintaining metabolic health may vary with each life stage, such as young, middle, and old age. To investigate the appropriate ratio of nutrients, particularly proteins, for maintaining metabolic health while approaching old age, young (6-month-old) and middle-aged (16-month-old) mice were fed isocaloric diets with varying protein percentages (5%, 15%, 25%, 35%, and… Continue reading Moderate protein intake percentage in mice for maintaining metabolic health during approach to old age
Dietary flavanols restore hippocampal-dependent memory in older adults with lower diet quality and habitual flavanol consumption
Dietary flavanols are food constituents found in certain fruits and vegetables that have been linked to cognitive aging. Previous studies suggested that consumption of dietary flavanols might specifically be linked to the hippocampal-dependent memory component of cognitive aging and that memory benefits of a flavanol intervention might depend on habitual diet quality. Here, we tested… Continue reading Dietary flavanols restore hippocampal-dependent memory in older adults with lower diet quality and habitual flavanol consumption
Excess dietary sugar alters colonocyte metabolism and impairs the proliferative response to damage
BackgroundThe colonic epithelium requires continuous renewal by crypt resident intestinal stem cells (ISCs) and transit amplifying (TA) cells to maintain barrier integrity, especially after inflammatory damage. The diet of high-income countries contains increasing amounts of sugar, such as sucrose. ISCs and TA cells are sensitive to dietary metabolites, but whether excess sugar affects their function… Continue reading Excess dietary sugar alters colonocyte metabolism and impairs the proliferative response to damage
Imagined eating – An investigation of priming and sensory-specific satiety
While obesity remains a pressing issue, the wider population continues to be exposed to more digital food content than ever before. Much research has demonstrated the priming effect of visual food content, i.e., exposure to food cues increasing appetite and food intake. In contrast, some recent research points out that repeated imagined consumption can facilitate… Continue reading Imagined eating – An investigation of priming and sensory-specific satiety
Effects of Time-Restricted Eating on Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver DiseaseThe TREATY-FLD Randomized Clinical Trial
Importance The efficacy and safety of time-restricted eating (TRE) on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) remain uncertain.Objective To compare the effects of TRE vs daily calorie restriction (DCR) on intrahepatic triglyceride (IHTG) content and metabolic risk factors among patients with obesity and NAFLD.Design, Setting, and Participants This 12-month randomized clinical trial including participants with obesity… Continue reading Effects of Time-Restricted Eating on Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver DiseaseThe TREATY-FLD Randomized Clinical Trial
Long-Term Effect of Weight Regain Following Behavioral Weight Management Programs on Cardiometabolic Disease Incidence and Risk: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
AbstractBACKGROUND:Behavioral weight management programs (BWMPs) enhance weight loss in the short term, but longer term cardiometabolic effects are uncertain as weight is commonly regained. We assessed the impact of weight regain after BWMPs on cardiovascular risk factors, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.METHODS:Trial registries, 11 databases, and forward-citation searching (latest search, December 19) were used to identify… Continue reading Long-Term Effect of Weight Regain Following Behavioral Weight Management Programs on Cardiometabolic Disease Incidence and Risk: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
