Introduction: Obesity poses a serious problem to human population as it increases the risk of diabetes, hypertension, metabolic syndrome. In pregnancy obesity increases the frequency of its complications.
Aim: The main aim of the study was to estimate the increase of body mass and insulin and neuropeptide Y concentrations in pregnant women.
Material And Methods: The changes of body mass and BMI in women before pregnancy and before delivery and the concentrations of insulin and neuropeptide Y in blood were estimated.
Results: The increase of body mass and BMI during the pregnancy period was higher in the group with high body mass and I stage obesity and increase of insulin concentration depended on increase of the body mass. Higher concentration of NPY was found in the group of women with normal body mass and obese if compared to stages II and III of obesity No correlation between insulin increase and concentration of NPY was found.
Conclusions: In most pregnant women body mass gain is excessive and leads to obesity of different stages. Insulin concentration increases as BMI increases. Neuropeptide Y concentration in the obese women group was lower than in the normal weight group.

Exploring the Relationship Between Combined, Acetabular, and Femoral Version on Postoperative Outcomes 2 Years After Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome.
Am J Sports Med
January 2025
Section of Young Adult Hip Surgery, Division of Sports Medicine, Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, Illinois, USA.
Background: Many studies have examined the prevalence of acetabular version (AV) and femoral version (FV) abnormalities and their effect on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) after hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS), but few have explored the prevalence and influence of combined version (CV) abnormalities.
Purpose: To (1) describe the distribution of AV, FV, and CV in the largest cohort to date and (2) determine the relationship between AV, FV, and CV and PROs after hip arthroscopy for FAIS.
Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3.
Athlete Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators Abuse: A Systematic Review.
Am J Sports Med
January 2025
Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, Cleveland, Ohio, USA.
Background: Selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs) are small-molecule compounds that exert agonist and antagonist effects on androgen receptors in a tissue-specific fashion. Because of their performance-enhancing implications, SARMs are increasingly abused by athletes. To date, SARMs have no Food and Drug Administration approved use, and recent case reports associate the use of SARMs with deleterious effects such as drug-induced liver injury, myocarditis, and tendon rupture.

Department of Urology, National Cancer Center Hospital East, Chiba, Japan.
Purpose: To evaluate the association between the newly developed region of interest (ROI)-modified Mayo Adhesive Probability (MAP) score, in which stranding was re-evaluated by computed tomography (CT) number, for predicting operation time in robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN).
Methods: The study participants were 119 patients who underwent transperitoneal RAPN. With regard to stranding, ROIs were evaluated, and the mean CT numbers were assigned a score ranging from 0 to 3.
Functional fitness and psychological well-being in older adults.

Institute of Health Promotion and Sport Sciences, Faculty of Education and Psychology, ELTE Eötvös Loránd University, Bogdánfy St. 12, Budapest, H-1117, Hungary.
Background: Physical fitness and functioning are related to better mental health in older age. However, which fitness components (body composition, strength, flexibility, coordination, and endurance) are more closely related to psychological well-being (PWB) is unclear.
Methods: This research examined how body mass index (BMI) and six indices of functional fitness (i.

Background: Highly effective CFTR modulators improve CFTR function and lead to dramatic improvements in health outcomes in many people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF). The relationship between measures of CFTR function, such as sweat chloride concentration, and clinical outcomes in pwCF treated with CFTR modulators is poorly defined. We conducted analyses to better understand the relationships between sweat chloride and CFTR function in vitro, and between sweat chloride and clinical outcomes following CFTR modulator treatment.
