FoxO proteins represent a subfamily of the forkhead box family (Fox) superfamily of proteins. It is involved in cell proliferation, differentiation, oxidative stress, apoptosis as well as tumors and metabolic disorders by regulating cellular functions. This paper aims to summarize the role of the transcription factor FoxO in type 2 diabetes and its complications, which may add to the potential of FoxO as a therapeutic target for future research. The transcription factor FoxO is expressed in various tissues and participates in various bodily functions including cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, tumor therapy, and metabolic processes, playing a crucial role in the human body. FoxO plays a positive role in attenuating oxidative stress, inflammation, and metabolic disorders, which are the main causes of type 2 diabetes and its complications. FoxO plays an important role in the regulation of type 2 diabetes and its complications, and more precise targeting studies of FoxO will help to prevent, regulate, and treat diabetes-related diseases.

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a clinical construct that conglomerates risk factors interconnected with cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes. More than a thousand million individuals in the world were diagnosed with MetS in 2018. Our objective was to examine the prevalence of MetS and its components among Mexican adults.

The restricted mean survival time has been widely used in the field of medical research because of its clear physical and simple clinical interpretation. In this paper, we propose an efficient estimation that incorporates the auxiliary restricted mean survival information into the estimation of the proportional hazard (PH) model. Compared to conventional models that do not incorporate available auxiliary information, the proposed method improves efficiency in estimating regression parameters by utilizing the double empirical likelihood method.

Post-translational modifications such as SUMOylation are crucial for the functionality and signal transduction of a diverse array of proteins. Analogous to ubiquitination, SUMOylation has garnered significant attention from researchers and has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various human diseases in recent years, such as cancer, neurological lesions, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus, and so on. The pathogenesis of diabetes, particularly type 1 and type 2 diabetes, has been closely associated with immune dysfunction, which constitutes the primary focus of this review.

Previous studies suggested that fecal short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and branched short-chain fatty acids (BCFAs) are associated with glucose regulation. However, the potential relationship between circulating SCFAs and BCFAs with incident diabetes risk in both men and women remains unidentified in prospective cohort studies. In this study, we examined a panel of nine serum SCFAs and BCFAs in 3414 subjects with incident diabetes, and matched normoglycemic controls from the China Cardiometabolic Disease and Cancer Cohort study.

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic inflammatory lung disease with high morbidity and mortality worldwide. Observational studies have shown correlations between common extrapulmonary comorbidities and COPD, but the existence of correlations does not necessarily prove a causal association. Therefore, causal relationships between diseases need to be explored by means of causal inference methods.
