Article Synopsis
- Previous models for predicting weight gain haven't been very effective, leading researchers to explore both traditional environmental factors and genetic markers to enhance accuracy.* -
- A study involving nearly 246,000 participants found that environmental factors provided good predictive ability for weight gain, while genetic models performed poorly, especially at mid-late adulthood.* -
- The research suggests that environmental factors should be incorporated into prevention strategies, and that genetic factors may be more relevant in predicting weight gain earlier in life.*
Article Synopsis
- * No significant associations were found between individual metabolites or patterns and overall prostate cancer risk after adjusting for multiple tests, except for six specific phosphatidylcholines linked to advanced cases diagnosed within 10 years.
- * Two metabolite patterns (1 and 2) showed inverse associations with advanced prostate cancer, while pattern 3 was related to prostate cancer death, indicating that metabolite profiles may change several years before advanced disease is detected.
Article Synopsis
- Inflammation plays a significant role in breast cancer progression and prognosis, particularly through pre-diagnostic plasma biomarkers in women.
- A study involving 1,538 women showed that elevated levels of the inflammatory marker IL-6 were linked to increased risks of all-cause and breast cancer-specific mortality, especially in postmenopausal women.
- Higher levels of IL-10 and TNFα were also associated with all-cause mortality, and an inflammatory score could indicate poorer long-term survival, particularly in postmenopausal breast cancer survivors.

: Previous studies have shown that meal timing, poor sleep quality, and chronotype may play a relevant role in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, its relationship with macronutrients by eating occasions has not been explored deeply. : Our aim was to estimate the association between chrono-nutrition, sleep quality, chronotype, and the prevalence of T2DM.

- Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) are linked to higher overall and cause-specific mortality risks, particularly cancer and cardiovascular disease (CVD).
- A study involving 15,784 participants found that a higher Fatty Liver Index (FLI), indicating more severe liver fat accumulation, correlated with increased mortality rates, especially for CVD.
- Individuals with metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and metabolic syndrome show heightened mortality risks, suggesting the need for greater awareness and management of these conditions.
