Aims: To analyse time-trends in BMI, obesity and cardiometabolic risk in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) from the Diabetes Prospective Follow-up registry DPV.
Methods: Data from 62,519 individuals with T1DM (age ≥ 18 years, BMI ≥ 18.5 kg/m) were analysed. Multivariable regression models were used to determine time-trends in BMI, obesity and cardiometabolic risk and to identify predictors for increasing BMI. Results were compared to the NCD Risk Factor Collaboration (NCD-RisC) data for Germany.
Results: Between 1999 and 2018 mean BMI increased from 25.0 kg/m to 26.2 kg/m in individuals with T1DM. This trend was most pronounced in young and middle-aged individuals (>21-55 years of age) and in those with higher baseline BMI. Insulin dose and diabetes duration were associated with increasing BMI. Between 1999 and 2016, the prevalence of obesity increased 1.8-fold in individuals with T1DM and 1.4-fold among the German population, respectively (NCD-RisC). Approximately 50-70% of individuals with obesity were insufficiently treated for hypertension and/or dyslipidaemia.
Conclusion: In adults with T1DM the prevalence of obesity is increasing at a faster pace than in the German population. BMI needs to be closely monitored, particularly during young adulthood, and cardiovascular risk factors need to be controlled better to prevent CVD and premature death.

Bone Marrow Niche in Cardiometabolic Disease: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Potential.

Cardiovascular and cardiometabolic diseases are leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, driven in part by chronic inflammation. Emerging research suggests that the bone marrow microenvironment, or marrow niche, plays a critical role in both immune system regulation and disease progression. The bone marrow niche is essential for maintaining hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and orchestrating hematopoiesis.

The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of advanced hepatic fibrosis and to individualize using Bayesian analysis its associated risk factors in patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) being cared for in three Alsatian cardio-metabolic health networks in the North East of France. Overall, 712 patients aged ≥18 years with a female predominance were included into a prospective, cross-sectional, and observational study. Advanced fibrosis and severe steatosis were evaluated using transient elastography (FibroScan®).

Cardiometabolic risk factors, obesity, diabetes and hyperlipidemia contribute to cardiovascular disease (CVD). While platelets are involved in CVD pathogenesis, the relationship between risk factor burden on platelet indices and the platelet transcriptome remains uncertain. Blood was collected from CVD-free adults, measuring platelet count, mean platelet volume (MPV), immature platelet fraction (IPF), and absolute immature platelet fraction (AIPF) by hemogram.

Objective: Patients with polycythemia have a high risk of thrombo-atherosclerotic diseases. However, it remains to be clarified whether a high blood hemoglobin level is related to cardiometabolic risk in women.
Methods: The overall subjects were 18,410 middle-aged women who had received health checkup examinations at their workplaces.
Is lean mass quantity or quality the determinant of maximal fat oxidation capacity? The potential mediating role of cardiorespiratory fitness.

University of Cadiz, ExPhy Research Group, Department of Physical Education, Puerto Real, Spain.
Background: Impaired fat oxidation is linked to cardiometabolic risk. Maximal fat oxidation rate (MFO) reflects metabolic flexibility and is influenced by lean mass, muscle strength, muscle quality - defined as the ratio of strength to mass - and cardiorespiratory fitness. The relationship between these factors and fat oxidation is not fully understood.
