Characteristics of Young Women Presenting With Acute Myocardial Infarction: The Prospective, Multicenter, Observational Young Women Presenting Acute Myocardial Infarction in France Study.

Background: The percentage of women <50 years of age hospitalized with myocardial infarction is increasing. We describe the clinical, morphological, and biological characteristics, as well as the clinical outcomes of this population.

Methods And Results: This prospective, observational study included consecutive women <50 years of age admitted for myocardial infarction at 30 centers in France (May 2017-June 2019).

LIPE-related lipodystrophic syndrome: clinical features and disease modeling using adipose stem cells.

Objective: The term Multiple Symmetric Lipomatosis (MSL) describes a heterogeneous group of rare monogenic disorders and multifactorial conditions, characterized by upper-body adipose masses. Biallelic variants in LIPE encoding hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL), a key lipolytic enzyme, were implicated in three families worldwide. We aimed to further delineate LIPE-related clinical features and pathophysiological determinants.

Lipodystrophic syndromes: From diagnosis to treatment.

Lipodystrophic syndromes are acquired or genetic rare diseases, characterised by a generalised or partial lack of adipose tissue leading to metabolic alterations linked to strong insulin resistance. They encompass a variety of clinical entities due to primary defects in adipose differentiation, in the structure and/or regulation of the adipocyte lipid droplet, or due to immune-inflammatory aggressions, chromatin deregulations and/or mitochondrial dysfunctions affecting adipose tissue. Diagnosis is based on clinical examination, pathological context and comorbidities, and on results of metabolic investigations and genetic analyses, which together determine management and genetic counselling.

Diagnostic and Therapeutic Management of Post-Gastric Bypass Chronic Diarrhea: a Systematic Review.

There is a lack of recommendation regarding exploration and treatment of chronic diarrhea following gastric bypass, while it is a common side effect of this surgery. The electronic databases MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched until July 2018. Of the 553 articles identified, 35 articles were included.
