Purpose: Obesity in mid-life is a well-established risk factor for developing renal cell carcinoma (RCC); however, patients with RCC who are obese at the time of diagnosis have more favorable survival outcomes. To get better insight into the obesity paradox and determine the extent to which weight around diagnosis is stable, we examined pre- and post-diagnosis weight changes in patients with localized RCC.
Methods: We included 334 patients with localized RCC from the prospective cohort ReLife who self-reported body weight at multiple time points ranging from 2 years before to 2 years after diagnosis.

Objectives: Higher body mass index (BMI) is reportedly associated with improved prognosis of patients with various cancers. However, it is unclear whether this phenomenon, also known as the obesity paradox, applies to metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). We aimed to determine the prognostic significance of BMI in patients with mRCC receiving first-line therapies.

Research Question: We aimed to assess the impact of Body Mass Index (BMI) on 30-day postoperative complications in patients undergoing minimally invasive hysterectomy (MIH) for fibroids.
Design: Using data from the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database (2012-2020), we analyzed major and minor 30-day postoperative complications, stratified by BMI, in patients with uterine fibroids who underwent MIH. Complications were stratified according to the Clavien-Dindo classification.

To investigate the potential association between body mass index (BMI) and the clinicopathological features of patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). We retrospectively analyzed data from 2541 patients who underwent partial or radical nephrectomy for renal masses between 2013 and 2023 in a single institution. Patients were divided into normal-weight, overweight, and obese groups based on the Chinese BMI classification.

The study analyzes a CDC dataset on US adult obesity and physical activity from 2011 to 2022. Despite rising obesity rates and insufficient fruit consumption, physical activity levels are increasing and overweight rates are slightly declining. The role of ultra-processed food intake, price sensitivity, early eating habits, and stress in obesity is highlighted.
