Background: Body fat percentage were positively correlated with arterial stiffness, but the acute change in arterial stiffness after aerobic exercise in individuals with different body fat percentages remains unclear. This study was aimed to determine the effect of acute aerobic exercise on arterial stiffness in individuals with different body fat percentages.

Methods: Individuals who both participated in the seventh survey of the Kailuan study and the fifth iteration of National Physical Fitness Monitoring were enrolled in our study. All participants underwent measurement of brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity, blood pressure, and heart rate before and after a two-stage load test on cycle ergometry. Additionally, the generalized linear model was established to analyse between-group differences of the change in brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity before and after exercise for individuals with different body fat percentages.

Results: The participants ( = 940, 36.8 ± 7.7years old, all male) were divided into: Q1 10.0-19.3%, Q2 19.3-23.3%, Q3 23.3-27.1% and Q4 27.1-37.7% by body fat percentage quartile. Overall, after exercise, brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity decreased significantly (before, 1,375.1 ± 209.1; after, 1,341.5 ± 208.0cm/s; < 0.01). After adjusting for confounding factors, the generalized linear model showed that the β values and 95% confidence interval (CI) of Q1, Q2 and Q3 groups were -38.1 (95% CI: -57.3, -19.0), -8.5 (95% CI: -25.8, 3.7),-3.7 (95% CI: -20.5, 13.0), respectively, when compared with Q4. For an increase in body fat percentage by one standard deviation (5.8%), β = 14.5 (95% CI: 7.3, 21.6). Similar results were obtained in sensitivity analyses.

Conclusions: Acute aerobic exercise had a positive effect on the arterial stiffness of adults with different body fat percentages. Compared with individuals with high body fat percentages, the arterial stiffness of people with low body fat percentages had significant reduction after exercise.

The harlequin ladybird, , is a predatory beetle used globally to control pests such as aphids and scale insects. Originating from East Asia, this species has become highly invasive since its introduction in the late 19th century to Europe and North America, posing a threat to local biodiversity. Intraguild predation is hypothesized to drive the success of this invasive species, but the underlying mechanisms remain unknown.

Associations between variants in the FTO locus and plasma concentrations of appetite related hormones are inconsistent, and might not work in a dose dependent fashion in people with obesity. Moreover, it is relevant to report meal related plasma concentrations of these hormones in persons with obesity given the growing interest in their pharmacological potential in obesity therapy. We find it clinically relevant to examine associations between the SNP rs9939609 genotypes and homeostatic appetite regulation in individuals with BMI ≥35 kg/m2.

Lipomas are benign soft tissue tumors composed of mature adipocytes, commonly found in subcutaneous tissues. Despite their prevalence in various body regions, they are relatively rare in the oral and maxillofacial regions. This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical and imaging characteristics, as well as the treatment outcomes of 57 patients diagnosed with lipoma.

There are limited studies on the phase angle (PhA) and sarcopenic obesity (SO) in the Chinese population. This study aimed to establish 50 kHz-PhA reference data for SO population, and to evaluate the correlation between 50 kHz-PhA and SO. A total of 10,312 participants including 5415 men and 4897 women were enrolled in this study, and their resistance and reactance at 50 kHz, and body composition parameters were measured a segmental multifrequency bioelectrical impedance analysis device (InBody 720).

Regulatory T cells (T) accumulate in the visceral adipose tissue (VAT) to maintain systemic metabolic homeostasis but decline during obesity. Here, we explored the metabolic pathways controlling the homeostasis, composition, and function of VAT T under normal and high-fat diet feeding conditions. We found that cholesterol metabolism was specifically up-regulated in ST2 VAT T subsets.
