Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a heterogeneous syndrome that is characterized from oligo- or anovulation, clinical and/or biochemical signs of hyperandrogenism, and polycystic ovaries. Clinical expression is determined by genetic as well as environmental factors. Women with PCOS are a specific group of women which have several aspects of metabolic syndrome (MBS). Concomitantly MBS could be part of metabolic abnormalities present in PCOS. Stress has been linked to aggravate the metabolic abnormalities present in MBS. An interaction seems to exist between stress, environmental, as well as genetic factors, starting from the prenatal age and continuing to the adult life. This results in specific endocrinological and metabolic disorders which are shared by women with PCOS and women with MBS.

The prevalence of childhood obesity is rising globally, with some obese children progressing to develop metabolic syndrome (MS). However, the specific differences between these groups remain unclear. To investigate the differences in gut microbiota, we conducted physiological and biochemical assessments, alongside 16S rRNA sequencing, in a cohort of 32 children from Southeastern China, which included 4 normal-weight children, 5 with mild obesity, 9 with moderate obesity, 9 with severe obesity, and 5 with metabolic syndrome.

Systemic calcinosis in horses: Pathological and genetic aspects.

January 2025
Setor de Patologia Veterinária, Universidade Federal Do Rio Grande Do Sul, Porto Alegre, RS, Brazil.
Background: In horses, systemic calcinosis is a rare syndrome characterised by muscle lesion associated with the mineralisation of large muscle groups or other organs, in the absence of an alternative cause for the calcification, such as toxic, enzootic or metabolic. Molecular and histopathological aspects of the disease are still poorly elucidated.
Objectives: To describe the epidemiological, pathological and molecular aspects of systemic calcinosis in a convenience sample of six horses submitted to necropsy in the Southern and Midwestern regions of Brazil.
Efficacy of intermittent fasting on improving liver function in individuals with metabolic disorders: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Department of Sports Medicine, China Medical University, Taichung City, Taiwan.
Background: Intermittent fasting (IF) can be an effective dietary therapy for weight loss and improving cardiometabolic health. However, there is scant evidence regarding the role of IF on indicators of liver function, particularly in adults with metabolic disorders. Therefore, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the effects of IF on liver function in adults with metabolic disorders.
