Mesenteric ischemia and antiphospholipid syndrome is a rare combination but should be suspected as a differential diagnosis. This may be presented as diffuse abdominal pain typically after food intake, diarrhea, and weight loss. Early recognition is warranted, and nutrition, stenting, and anticoagulant treatments are indicated.

Center for Obesity and Hernia Surgery, Department of General Surgery, Huashan Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai, 200040, China.
Background: Hyperuricemia is a metabolic disorder associated with obesity. Many studies have reported the effect of bariatric surgery on the decrease of serum uric acid level in patients with hyperuricemia. However, since the update of diagnostic criteria of hyperuricemia, the correlation between preoperative body mass index, postoperative weight changes, and the remission of hyperuricemia in patients with obesity after sleeve gastrectomy requires consensus.

Slimmer's paralysis in a physical trainer with drastic weight fluctuations.
BMJ Case Rep

Orthopaedics, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India.
Slimmer's paralysis is a peripheral mononeuropathy of the common peroneal (fibular) nerve (CPN/CFN), typically associated with rapid weight loss resulting in loss of subcutaneous fat pad and subsequent neural compression at the fibular head. Here, we describe a young man with a 1-year history of right-sided foot drop, which developed following a rapid intentional weight loss of 11 kg over a period of 15 days. This weight loss was preceded by rapid weight gain over 2 days owing to binge eating.

Obesity, recognized as a metabolic disease and a global epidemic, calls for novel pharmacological interventions. Menthol, an organic compound, has shown promise in increasing energy expenditure and has been proposed as a potential anti-obesity drug. While preclinical studies have demonstrated menthol's preventive effect on body mass gain, none have investigated its efficacy in treating obesity.

Purpose Of Review: This review explores the mechanistic pathways and clinical implications of phytochemicals in obesity management, addressing the global health crisis of obesity and the pressing need for effective, natural strategies to combat this epidemic.
Recent Findings: Phytochemicals demonstrate significant potential in obesity control through various molecular mechanisms. These include the modulation of adipogenesis, regulation of lipid metabolism, enhancement of energy expenditure, and suppression of appetite.
