Summary: The study suggests that there is no significant association between coffee intake and the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus, but in studies conducted in non-Asia countries, coffee consumption may have an inverse relationship with GDM risk. Further large-scale cohort studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Summary: Although controversial, the association between dietary patterns and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) was summarized through a systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis. The results showed that a higher adherence to a healthy dietary pattern was associated with a lower risk of GDM, while an unhealthy dietary pattern had a marginally significant association with increased GDM risk. Linear analyses confirmed the significant associations between both healthy and unhealthy dietary patterns and GDM risk.

Summary: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether maternal cigarette smoking during pregnancy is a risk factor for developing gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed, and the results indicated no evidence to support an association between maternal cigarette smoking during pregnancy and the risk for GDM. It is recommended to adopt universally accepted diagnostic criteria for GDM to reduce heterogeneity and clarify the association between smoking and GDM.

Summary: There is a longitudinal association between adolescent vaping and smoking initiation, but the evidence is limited by publication bias, high sample attrition, and inadequate adjustment for potential confounders.

Summary: This systematic review examines the association between physical activity during pregnancy and gestational weight gain. The findings suggest that active pregnant women tend to gain less weight compared to inactive women, and a lack of physical activity may contribute to excessive weight gain during pregnancy.

Summary: This meta-analysis did not find an association between total nut, peanut, or tree nut consumption and type 2 diabetes. However, peanut butter consumption may be inversely associated with the incidence of this disease.

Summary: Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is a common metabolic complication during pregnancy, associated with maternal and fetal complications, as well as increased risk of diabetes and obesity in the offspring. Despite existing proteomic studies on GDM, there is a lack of comprehensive meta-analysis. This study conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis, identifying potential biomarkers for GDM and highlighting their links to complement and coagulation cascades.

Summary: Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) prevalence in Europe is around 11%, with the highest prevalence in pregnant women in Eastern European countries reaching 31.5%. Findings highlight the need for vigilant public health awareness campaigns about the risk factors associated with developing GDM.

Summary: The study revealed that smoking (both active and passive) increased the risk of breast cancer in women, especially in premenopausal breast cancer patients. The effect of smoking on breast cancer risk is influenced by smoking-related factors, population-related factors, and breast cancer subtypes.

Summary: This systematic review and meta-analysis examined the association between physical activity and diabetes-related complications. The findings suggest that even below recommended levels, physical activity is associated with a reduced incidence of diabetes-related complications, particularly cardiovascular disease and microvascular complications.

Summary: Through a systematic review and meta-analysis, it was found that there was no significant correlation between fracture risk and metformin application in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. Further research is needed to make a definite conclusion due to the limited number of existing studies, providing clinical consensus with more evidence.

Summary: This systematic review suggests that higher whole-body fat mass may be associated with increased risk of prostate cancer, especially advanced/aggressive prostate cancer. Abdominal adipose tissue may also increase the risk of prostate cancer. Future research should further investigate the relationship between body composition and cancer risk to develop more targeted prevention strategies.
