Subcutaneous fat necrosis of the newborn (SFN) is an uncommon, self-limited condition of neonates and infants. However, hypercalcemia may be a potentially life-threatening complication of the otherwise self-healing process. Rare complications such as thrombocytopenia, hypertriglyceridemia, hypoglycemia, calcium deposits in the liver, inferior vena cava, atrial septum of the heart, and nephrocalcinosis have been reported. To our knowledge, this is the first description of a patient in whom lactic acidosis was encountered in an infant along with the other known complications of SFN.

Gender Different Impacts of Muscle Mass and Adipose Tissue on Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma Undergoing Surgical Resection.
Liver Int
February 2025
Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Department of Medicine, Taipei Veterans General Hospital, Taipei, Taiwan.
Background & Aims: Body composition is an objective assessment reflecting nutritional status and is highly gender different. Surgical resection, the standard treatment for early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), is an energy-consuming major operation that would affect body composition. However, the impacts of body composition on the post-operative prognosis of HCC are still uncertain.

Department of Surgery and Oncology, Graduate School of Medical Sciences, Kyushu University, 3-1-1 Maidashi, Higashi-Ku, Fukuoka, 812-8582, Japan.
Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between the quantity and quality of subcutaneous fat and prognosis following colorectal cancer resection.
Method: We conducted a retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 399 patients who underwent curative resection for stage 2 or 3 colorectal cancer between January 2013 and March 2019. This study examined the correlation between sarcopenia and various fat parameters, including fat area and density, and assessed their impact on the prognosis.
Association of lung function with visceral adiposity and skeletal muscle mass considering myosteatosis.

Subdivision of Endocrinology and Metabolism, Health Screening and Promotion Center, Asan Medical Center, Seoul, Republic of Korea. Electronic address:
Background: Changes in body composition, including loss of muscle mass and obesity, adversely affect lung function.
Research Question: What is the relationship between lung function, visceral adiposity, and skeletal muscle mass, considering myosteatosis measured using computed tomography (CT) scans in middle-aged Korean adults?
Study Design And Methods: We reviewed 15,827 participants (9237 men and 6590 women), with a mean age of 52.5 ± 8.
Diagnostic and Therapeutic Approach to Rare Tongue Lipoma.
J Craniofac Surg
October 2024
State Key Laboratory of Oral & Maxillofacial Reconstruction and Regeneration, Key Laboratory of Oral Biomedicine Ministry of Education, Hubei Key Laboratory of Stomatology, School & Hospital of Stomatology, Wuhan University.
Lipomas are benign soft tissue tumors composed of mature adipocytes, commonly found in subcutaneous tissues. Despite their prevalence in various body regions, they are relatively rare in the oral and maxillofacial regions. This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical and imaging characteristics, as well as the treatment outcomes of 57 patients diagnosed with lipoma.

FASEB J
January 2025
College of Animal Science and Technology, Anhui Agricultural University, Hefei, China.
Pregnant ewes mobilize body fat to increase energy supply for fetal growth and development upon undernutrition, which disrupts the metabolic homeostasis of the body. However, the comprehensive metabolic changes in subcutaneous adipose tissue upon undernutrition are poorly understood. In this study, an undernutrition sheep model was established to investigate the effects of undernutrition on metabolic changes, immune response, and inflammation in subcutaneous fat through transcriptome, RT-qPCR, and metabolome analysis.
