Obesity often coexists with thyroid diseases, and the prevalence of these disorders has been on the rise for years. While hypothyroidism can contribute to excess fat tissue, the relationship between Body Mass Index (BMI) and thyroid function hormones is bidirectional. Research confirms that fat tissue reduction can positively impact thyroid function. Thus, delaying the initiation of therapies beyond substitution treatment to achieve optimal weight reduction in individuals with thyroid dysfunction seems unwarranted. The authors summarize current knowledge on this topic in the article.

Background/aims: Human mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSC) are multipotent adult cells commonly used in regenerative medicine as advanced therapy medicinal products. The expansion of these cells in xeno-free supplements is highly encouraged by regulatory agencies due to safety concerns. However, the number of supplements with robust performance and consistency for hMSC expansion are limited.

Background: An association exists between obesity and reduced testosterone levels in males. The propose of this research is to reveal the correlation between 15 indices linked to obesity and lipid levels with the concentration of serum testosterone, and incidence of testosterone deficiency (TD) among adult American men.
Methods: The study utilized information gathered from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) carried out from 2011 to 2016.

Background: Menopause is a significant phase in women's health, in which the incidence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is significantly increased. Body fat distribution changes with age and hormone levels in postmenopausal women, but the extent to which changes in body fat distribution affect the occurrence of OSA is unclear.
Methods: This research performed a cross-sectional analysis utilizing data from the 2015-2016 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).

Objective: To analyze the relationship between body fat, motor skills, and physical fitness in children and adolescents.
Methods: 216 children and adolescents (143 males and 73 females, aged 5-15 years) from a social project composed this study. Body mass and height were measured to calculate the body mass index (BMI).

Objectives: To develop a nomogram based on the radiomics features of tumour and perigastric adipose tissue adjacent to the tumor in dual-layer spectral detector computed tomography (DLCT) for lymph node metastasis (LNM) prediction in gastric cancer (GC).
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 175 patients with gastric adenocarcinoma. They were divided into training cohort (n = 125) and validation cohort (n = 50).
