Aims: This cohort study examined the association of total and individual dairy products with the risk of incident MetS and its components in children and adolescents.
Methods: We prospectively assessed 531 participants aged 6-18 years without the MetS at baseline during an average 6.6-year follow-up period. Dairy consumption was estimated with a valid and reliable food frequency questionnaire. The MetS was defined according to the Cook criteria. The multivariable regression model was used to calculate the odds ratio (OR) for incident MetS associated with the consumption of dairy products.
Results: The incidence of MetS was 9.8% after an average 6.6-year follow-up. After adjusting for potential confounders, OR (95% confidence interval) for incident MetS was 0.48 (0.23-1.00) for total dairy, 0.44 (0.21-0.92) for low-fat dairy, 0.46 (0.22-0.98) for low-fat milk, and 0.45 (0.21-0.97) for low-fat yogurt when comparing participants in the highest versus lowest tertile. A moderate intake of regular cheese was associated with decreased risk of MetS (OR = 0.43, 95% CI: 0.19-0.97). Replacing one serving/day of total dairy with nuts was associated with a lower (OR: 0.63, 95% CI: 0.42-0.95), whereas replacement by red and processed meat was associated with higher (OR: 1.55, 95%CI: 1.21-1.97) MetS risk. No significant association was found between high-fat dairy and MetS risk.
Conclusions: Higher consumption of dairy products, particularly low-fat milk and yogurt, was associated with reduced risk of incident MetS, suggesting the capability of low-fat dairy products in the primary prevention of MetS in children and adolescents.

Dysregulated tryptophan metabolism contributes to metabolic syndrome in Chinese community-dwelling older adults.

Background: As the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) rises among older adults, the associated risks of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes significantly increase, and it is closely linked to various metabolic processes in the body. Dysregulation of tryptophan (TRP) metabolism, particularly alterations in the kynurenine (KYN) and serotonin pathways, has been linked to the onset of chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, and insulin resistance, key contributors to the development of MetS. We aim to investigate the relationship between the TRP metabolites and the risk of MetS in older adults.

Background: Current evidence regarding the effects of serum Klotho among patients with metabolic syndrome (MetS) is scarce. This study explored the relationship between serum Klotho levels and the odds of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in middle-aged and older populations with MetS.
Materials And Methods: This cross-sectional study analyzed data from 4870 adults aged 40-79 years who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Survey (NHANES) from 2007 to 2016.
