Purpose: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a commonly diagnosed malignancy with highly heterogeneous incidence and mortality rates worldwide. High body mass index (BMI) is a well-defined risk factor for CRC. The mortality trends of CRC among patients who are overweight contributions at the global and national levels are largely unknown.
Method: We collected data on CRC-related mortality attributable to high BMI from 1990 to 2017 from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017 database. The annual average percentage change (AAPC) was used to quantify the CRC age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) trends.
Results: Globally, approximately 896,040 CRC-related deaths occurred in 2017, among which 73,222 (8.2%; 54,193 in men and 19,029 in women) deaths were attributable to high BMI. The high-BMI-related CRC ASMR increased from 0.81 per 100,000 in 1990 to 0.93 per 100,000 in 2017, with an AAPC of 0.42 (95% CI 0.36, 0.49). The increasing trend was consistent among populations of different sexes and ages. A more pronounced increase was found in men and in regions with middle or low socio-demographic indexes.
Conclusion: The increase in high-BMI-related CRC mortality suggests scarce attention to overweight in the current prevention strategies and highlights its priority in future prevention strategies for CRC.

Objective: Asthma poses a significant health burden in South Asia, with increasing incidence and mortality despite a global decline in age-standardized prevalence rates. This study aims to analyze asthma trends from 1990 to 2021, focusing on prevalence, incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) across South Asia. The study also assesses the impact of risk factors like high body mass index (BMI), smoking, and occupational exposures on asthma outcomes.

Background: Diabetes and osteoporosis, as chronic diseases with high incidence, have caused deep concern in the field of global public health due to their high morbidity and mortality. More importantly, the complex and close relationship between diabetes and osteoporosis has gradually become the focus of scientific research. It is very meaningful to carry out bibliometric analysis in the research field of diabetes and osteoporosis to describe the current international trend and present a visual representation of the past and emerging trends of diabetes and osteoporosis in the past decade.

Background: Patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) are at high risk for coronary artery disease. We investigate the trends and outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for stable ischemic heart disease (SIHD) in patients with ESKD.
Methods: We utilized the United States Renal Data System [2010-2018] to include adult patients with ESKD on dialysis for at least 3 months who underwent PCI for SIHD.

Background: Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a significant contributor to disability and mortality in diabetic patients. Macrophage polarization and functional regulation are promising areas of research and show therapeutic potential in the field of DFU healing. However, the complex mechanism, the difficulty in clinical translation, and the large heterogeneity present significant challenges.

Background: Valvular heart disease (VHD) management has evolved rapidly in recent decades, but disparities in health care access persist among countries with varying socioeconomic backgrounds.
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate global mortality trends from VHD and assess the difference between middle- and high-income countries.
Methods: We obtained mortality data from the World Health Organization Mortality Database for VHD and its subgroups (rheumatic valvular disease [RVD], infective endocarditis [IE], aortic stenosis [AS], and mitral regurgitation [MR]) from 2000 to 2019.
