Objective: To analyze the effect of central obesity on new-onset cerebral infarction events among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients in the Kailuan Group.

Methods: This was a prospective cohort study. In a total of 101 510 employees who had been carried out a healthy examination in Kailuan Group from Jul. 2006 to Oct. 2007. 8 306 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients were selected. According to the baseline waist measurement, the observed population was divided into two groups-with central obesity or without. The total period of follow-up was 38-53 (48.05 ± 3.09) months.

Results: 1) Mean age, BMI, the levels of SBP, DBP, pulse pressure, FPG, TC, LDL-C, uric acid significant increased in the central obesity group were higher than in the non-obese group (P < 0.01). 2) The incidence of new onset cerebral infarction in obese group was higher than that in the non-obese group (3.1% vs. 1.6%, 6.8%, P < 0.01; 3.3% vs. 1.7%, P < 0.01 in male respectively. 3) Results from the multiple logistic regression analysis showed that, compared with the non-obese group, the obese group had an increase of relative risk (RR) on new onset cerebral infarction events after adjustment on age, gender and other risk factors, with RR value as 2.07 (95%CI:1.39-3.09, P < 0.01).

Conclusion: Type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with central obesity seemed to have increased the risk of new-onset cerebral infarction events.

Gut-brain axis as a bridge in obesity and depression: Mechanistic exploration and therapeutic prospects.

World J Psychiatry

January 2025

The Second Clinical Medical College, The Second Affiliated Hospital, Jiangxi Medical College, Nanchang University, Nanchang 330006, Jiangxi Province, China.

A recent study by Wang , published in the , provided preventative and therapeutic strategies for the comorbidity of obesity and depression. The gutbrain axis, which acts as a two-way communication system between the gastrointestinal tract and the central nervous system, plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of these conditions. Evidence suggests that metabolic byproducts, such as short-chain fatty acids, lipopolysaccharide and bile acids, which are generated by the gut microbiota, along with neurotransmitters and inflammatory mediators within the gut-brain axis, modulate the host's metabolic processes, neuronal regulation, and immune responses through diverse mechanisms.

Higher cardiorespiratory fitness levels attenuate but do not negate the heightened risk of sudden cardiac death due to obesity: A prospective cohort study.

Int J Cardiol Heart Vasc

February 2025

Section of Cardiology, Department of Internal Medicine, Max Rady College of Medicine, Rady Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Manitoba, Saint Boniface Hospital, Winnipeg, Manitoba, R2H 2A6, Canada.

Background: Higher levels of CRF have been demonstrated to attenuate or negate the adverse cardiovascular impacts of other risk factors. We aimed to assess the interplay between body mass index (BMI), CRF and sudden cardiac death (SCD) risk.

Methods: Body mass index was calculated based on guideline recommendations and CRF assessed using a respiratory gas exchange analyzer during clinical exercise testing at baseline in 2308 men aged 42-61 years of age.

Objective: Cross-sectional data from a sample of older adults with obesity was used to determine how peripheral and neuronal insulin resistance (IR) relate to executive function and functional brain network topology.

Methods: Older adults (n=71) with obesity but without type 2 diabetes were included. Peripheral IR was quantified by HOMA2-IR.
