Objective: This study investigated the effect of fatty liver disease (FLD) on the risk of incident type 2 diabetes in a population with metabolically healthy obesity (MHO).
Methods: The study population comprised 34,258 Koreans without type 2 diabetes. Participants were stratified by BMI (cutoff value, 25.0 kg/m(2) ) and metabolic health state (using Wildman criteria). FLD was defined by the fatty liver index (FLI), a predictive algorithm to detect FLD. Subjects were classified into low and high FLI groups based on tertile.
Results: At baseline, there were significant differences in FLI between four study groups. During a median follow-up of 36.5 months, 1.7% individuals developed type 2 diabetes. The risk of incident type 2 diabetes varied for the MHO group according to the level of FLI. The risk of type 2 diabetes in the MHO with low FLI was not significantly elevated compared with the metabolically healthy individuals without obesity (MHNO) with low FLI (multivariate-adjusted HR, 1.19 [95% CI 0.66-2.14]). However, the MHO with high FLI had an elevated risk of incident type 2 diabetes (multivariate-adjusted HR, 1.99 [95% CI 1.36-2.92]).
Conclusions: MHO subjects have a substantially higher risk of incident type 2 diabetes than MHNO subjects. The presence of FLD assessed by FLI partially explains this increased risk.

Obesity is a rapidly growing health problem worldwide, affecting both adults and children and increasing the risk of chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension and cardiovascular disease (CVD). In addition, obesity is closely linked to chronic kidney disease (CKD) by either exacerbating diabetic complications or directly causing kidney damage. Obesity-related CKD is characterized by proteinuria, lipid accumulation, fibrosis and glomerulosclerosis, which can gradually impair kidney function.

Objective: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder that significantly impairs muscle regeneration following injuries, contributing to numerous complications and reduced quality of life. There is an urgent need for therapeutic strategies that can enhance muscle regeneration and alleviate these pathological mechanisms. In this study, we evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of W-GA nanodots, which are composed of gallic acid (GA) and tungstate (W6+), on muscle regeneration in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D)-induced muscle injury, with a focus on their anti-inflammatory and antioxidative effects.

Objectives: Dyslipidemias are major risk factors for cardiovascular disease, and other comorbidities. The focus on food and nutrition to prevent and treat cardiovascular risk factors including dyslipidemia is a paradigm shift. This is the first meta-analysis to assess the association of dates fruit and dyslipidemia in Type-2 diabetes.
