Purpose Of Review: Time-restricted eating (TRE) entails consuming energy intake within a 4- to 10-h window, with the remaining time spent fasting. Although studies have reported health benefits from TRE, little is known about the impact of TRE on common chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, cancer and cardiovascular disease. This review summarizes and critically evaluates the most recent TRE research findings relevant to managing and treating these chronic diseases.
Recent Findings: Most recent TRE studies have been in populations with overweight/obesity or metabolic syndrome; two have been in populations with diabetes, three in cancer survivors and none in populations with cardiovascular disease. Collectively, these studies showed that participants could adhere to TRE and TRE is well tolerated. These studies also showed preliminary efficacy for improved glucose regulation and insulin sensitivity, a reduction in body fat and blood pressure, reduced cardiovascular risk scores and increased quality of life. More research is required to define the most effective TRE protocol (i.e. length and timing of eating window, intervention duration).
Summary: TRE has demonstrated benefits on cardiovascular, metabolic and clinical outcomes relevant to the underlying pathophysiology, but there are limited data on TRE implemented specifically within populations with diabetes, cancer or cardiovascular disease.

Background: The incidence of thyroid cancer has increased annually, but the risk factors for thyroid cancer are still unclear. In this umbrella review, we aimed to identify associations between nongenetic risk factors and thyroid cancer incidence, and assess the quality and validity of the evidence.
Methods: PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews were searched to identify related meta-analyses or systematic reviews of epidemiological studies.

Background: Prostate cancer therapy with surgical or chemical castration with GnRH agonists has been linked to elevated FSH levels, which may contribute to secondary health disorders, including atherosclerosis and diabetes. Although recent findings suggest a role for FSH beyond the reproductive system, its metabolic impact remains unclear and difficult to disentangle from that of androgens. In this study, we examined the metabolic changes induced by FSH and distinguished them from those caused by testosterone.

Cancer metastasis involves cell migration from their primary organ foci into vascular channels, followed by dissemination to prospective colonization sites. Vascular entry of tumor cells or intravasation involves their breaching stromal and endothelial extracellular matrix (ECM) and the endothelial barriers. How the kinetics of this breach are confounded by chronic inflammatory stresses seen in diabetes and aging remains ill-investigated.

Objectives: We aimed to study sarcopenia for its significance in predicting the effect of hepatic artery intervention (HAI) plus lenvatinib on hepatitis B-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) complicated with diabetes mellitus (DM).
Materials And Methods: Hepatitis B-related HCC patients complicated with DM (n = 102) visiting during January 2021 and December 2023 were retrospectively selected. Computed tomography was performed to detect the third lumbar vertebra for its muscle cross-sectional area.

Intricate crosstalk among various lung cell types is crucial for orchestrating diverse physiological processes. Traditional two-dimensional and recent three-dimensional (3D) assay platforms fail to precisely replicate these complex communications. Many lung models do not effectively reflect the multicellular complexity of lung tissue.
