The idea that obesity and cardiovascular diseases together are considered for a sizable share of adult global morbidity and mortality is supported by epidemiological data. They have intricate systems in which environmental and genetic variables interact, including nutrition. As an environmental component, nutrition has a major and well-known role in managing health and preventing obesity and disorders connected to obesity, such as cardiovascular disease (CVD). Nonetheless, people with the same food pattern but obese exhibit a notable difference in CVD. This variance might be explained by the various genetic polymorphisms which gave rise to the field of nutrigenetics. The discipline known as nutritional genomics, or nutrigenetics, examines and describes gene variants linked to varying reactions to particular nutrients and links these variations to various disorders, including obesity-related cardiovascular disease (CVD). Therefore, tailored nutrition advice depending on a person's genetic background could enhance the results of a particular dietary intervention and offer a novel dietary technique to enhance health by lowering obesity and cardiovascular disease. With these suppositions, it seems reasonable to assume that understanding food and gene interactions will provide more targeted and efficacious dietary treatments in preventing obesity and CVD by nutrigenetics-based personalized nutrition. In addition to elucidating the connection between diet and gene expression and the major nutrition-related genes involved in obesity and CVD, this research seeks to provide a concise summary of the greater significant genes linked to obesity and CVD.

Weight gain among persons with HIV PWH) on contemporary antiretroviral therapy (ART) can extend beyond an initial return-to-health phenomenon and lead to overweight/obesity in the first 1 to 2 years, resulting in enhanced cardiometabolic risk. Factors that may contribute to increased weight gain include specific ART regimens (those initiating dolutegravir and tenofovir alafenamide or withdrawing tenofovir disoproxil and efavirenz), women with HIV, and certain virologic factors including lower baseline CD4 count and higher HIV viral load. Weight reduction starting at 5% body weight confers metabolic protection, such as improved hypertension and dysglycemia.

Background: Use of health applications (apps) to support healthy lifestyles has intensified. Different app features may support effectiveness, including gamification defined as the use of game elements in a non-game situation. Whether health apps with gamification can impact behaviour change and cardiometabolic risk factors remains unknown.

Inflammation plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of various diseases by promoting the acquisition of new functional traits by different cell types. Shared risk factors between cardiovascular disease and cancer, including smoking, obesity, diabetes, high-fat diet, low physical activity, and alcohol consumption, contribute to inflammation linked to platelet activation. Platelets contribute to an inflammatory state by activating various normal cells, such as fibroblasts, immune cells, and vascular cells.

Background: Body mass index (BMI) consistently correlates with the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, a marker of insulin resistance, which in turn is linked to heightened cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Thus, insulin resistance could potentially mediate the association between BMI and CVD risk. However, few studies have explored this mechanism in the general population.

However, at the population level, the data are conflicting, especially when comparing different self-reported vs measured techniques across different settings and populations. We measured the association between moderate-to-vigorous intensity PA (MVPA) and prospective weight change across five African-origin populations and the extent to which MVPA attenuated weight change over time.
