Background: Obesity is associated with an increased risk of multiple conditions, ranging from heart disease to cancer. However, there are few predictive models for these outcomes that have been developed specifically for people with overweight/obesity.
Objective: To develop predictive models for obesity-related complications in patients with overweight and obesity.
Importance: Many patients at high cardiovascular risk-women more commonly than men-are not receiving statins. Anecdotally, it is common for patients to not accept statin therapy recommendations by their clinicians. However, population-based data on nonacceptance of statin therapy by patients are lacking.

Objective: To determine an effect of CD38 on the regulation of oxytocin (OT) production and to identify psychosocial characteristics according to the Strength and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) in adolescent schoolchildren.
Material And Methods: The study included 308 adolescents, aged 11-18 years, of an unbiased school sample from three large cities of Central Siberia (Krasnoyarsk, =194; Abakan, =76; Kyzyl, =38). All participants were Russian.
Unlabelled: We aimed to assess the prevalence, content structure and, psychological comorbidity of PIU in Russian adolescents. In addition, the design of our research provided an opportunity to compare demographic and psychological patterns of different forms of PIU: generalized (PIUgen) and specific problematic video game use (PUgame), as well as problematic social media use (PUsocial).
Methods: This is a one-stage cross-sectional observational study of school sampling in three major Siberian cities.
