Background: To evaluate the effects of bariatric surgery on patients with type 2 diabetes through comparing Asian and non-Asian populations according to follow-up time.
Methods: In this meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs), we searched PubMed databases for relevant articles. A meta-analysis was undertaken of 37 eligible RCTs.
Results: Diabetes remission rates among Asian populations were similar to those of non-Asian populations at 1 year (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.519 [0.417, 0.619] vs 0.571 [0.316, 0.794], respectively) but were found to be higher in Asian populations at 2 years compared to non-Asian populations (95% CI 0.672 [0.469, 0.826] vs 0.563 [0.220, 0.855], respectively). Asian populations showed greater reductions in HbA1c (- 3.512 [- 2.726, - 4.299], - 3.001 [- 1.433, - 4.569], and - 3.345 [- 2.267, - 4.423]) than non-Asian populations (- 2.129 [- 1.821, - 2.438], - 2.301 [- 1.881, - 2.722], and - 2.107 [- 1.941, - 2.273]) at 1, 2, and 5 years, respectively. Asian populations also showed greater reductions of fasting plasma glucose than non-Asian populations, and these effects were prominent at 3- and 5-year follow-up (Asian populations, - 83.297 [- 73.264, - 93.331]; non-Asian populations, - 54.288 [- 37.409, - 71.166] at 3 years; Asian populations, - 99.014 [- 82.239, - 115.788]; non-Asian populations, - 45.756 [- 21.892, - 69.621] at 5 years).
Conclusions: Bariatric surgery is more successful in diabetes remission and glucose outcome improvement in Asian populations with type 2 diabetes than in non-Asian populations, even over long-term follow-up periods. Bariatric surgery can be considered an effective treatment option and may present an appropriate opportunity to improve the prognosis for Asian patients with type 2 diabetes.

Introduction: More than half of diabetes patients are Asians, and their tolerance to antidiabetic drugs may differ from that of non-Asians. Oral semaglutide has recently gained attention for its advantages in glycemic and body weight control. However, its effects across different ethnic groups remain unknown.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an age-related chronic inflammatory disease which may include accelerated biological ageing processes in its pathogenesis. To determine if increased biological age is associated with risk of RA and/or is present once disease is established. We used DNA methylation to compare biological age (epigenetic age) of immune cells in adults at risk of RA and those with confirmed RA, including twins discordant for RA.

Background: Sexual well-being significantly impacts the overall quality of life for individuals with and without intellectual disabilities. Notably, parents play a pivotal role in influencing their children's sexual development, and their attitudes towards this topic are shaped by Chinese sociocultural values.
Methods: This study employed Interpretative phenomenological analysis to explore the experiences and attitudes of five individuals with intellectual disabilities and seven parents/caregivers regarding the sexual needs of their adult offspring with intellectual disabilities.

Intracranial atherosclerosis (ICAS) is a major cause of ischemic stroke, disproportionately affecting populations with significant vascular risk factors. Although ICAS imposes a considerable health burden, research on this condition in Central Asia remains scarce, especially among the Kazakh population. This study analyzes demographic characteristics, treatment outcomes, and procedural challenges associated with ICAS in 216 patients treated at a single institution.
