Summary: The problem of overweight and obesity is increasing in the population and is associated with metabolic disorders and increased risk of death. This study assessed the changes in body composition and physical fitness in children participating in a weight-loss program and found a possible relationship between changes in body composition and improvements in fitness. Both BIA and DXA methods were equally useful for measuring body composition.

Summary: This meta-analysis study found that probiotic supplementation can significantly reduce BMI, waist circumference, and hip circumference in overweight and obese patients, but the effect on body weight is not significant. Although there is a positive trend, further research is needed before recommending probiotics as a therapeutic strategy for these patients.

Summary: This study aimed to examine the agreement between BMI-based nutritional status and perceived nutritional status and explore the association between weight perception accuracy and weight control practices in the Chilean adult population. The results showed fair agreement between BMI-based and perceived nutritional status in the total sample, with higher accuracy in women, younger respondents, and those with higher education and income. Individuals with overweight or obesity tended to underestimate their nutritional status. Weight loss behaviors were more related to perceived nutritional status rather than BMI-based status in all groups.

Summary: Psychological factors play a significant role in the outcomes of degenerative spine surgery, but preoperative weight loss or gain does not seem to have a measurable impact on long-term postoperative outcomes. Changes in BMI were not associated with changes in patient-reported outcome measures, suggesting that weight status may not be a reliable indicator of postoperative success.

Summary: The effect of weight change on longitudinal SBP varied among different BMI groups. With increasing baseline BMI, weight loss had a greater positive effect on SBP, while the negative effect of weight gain on SBP was attenuated.

Summary: This study found that weight change is associated with changes in biochemical and histological features of NASH in patients. Weight loss can improve NASH and fibrosis, while weight gain may worsen disease activity. Therefore, NASH management should include recommendations for avoiding weight gain and supporting weight loss.

Summary: This study found that younger firefighters tend to gain weight more significantly compared to older firefighters, with younger firefighters also being more likely to gain weight and less likely to lose weight. Smaller weight gains were associated with age and BMI, with the smallest increases observed in overweight and obese firefighters over 45 years old.

Summary: This study analyzed data from a large prospective cohort of 13,198 individuals in the Spanish HIV Research Network and found that INSTI- and PI-based first-line ARTs are associated with greater weight gain compared to NNRTI-based ART. Individuals starting TAF+FTC had greater weight gain than those receiving TDF+FTC. Women and black persons tended to have greater weight gain, with weight changes mainly observed during the first year of ART.

Summary: The study found that in an elderly Mediterranean cohort, the frequency of drinking water consumption was inversely associated with changes in body weight and waist circumference, with higher levels of water consumption associated with more significant weight loss effects.

Summary: The study found that baseline insulin dynamics are associated with body composition changes following weight loss. Higher insulin secretion is related to a smaller decrease in fat mass and a larger decrease in lean mass, while greater insulin resistance is associated with adverse body composition changes.

Summary: Weight change is associated with the risk of metabolic abnormalities. Long-term excessive weight gain is positively associated with an increased risk of metabolic abnormalities in non-overweight/obese individuals, while long-term weight loss is a protective factor for metabolic health in overweight/obese individuals.

Summary: This study found that dynamic changes in body weight are associated with the risk of cardiac arrest. A BMI percent change of 5% or more significantly increased the occurrence of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, showing a reverse J-shaped association. Severe weight loss had the highest impact on cardiac arrest risk in men, while weight gain had a more significant impact in women.

Summary: The study evaluated risk factors for erosive hand OA including age, sex, race, OA severity, metabolic factors, and bone health over a 48-month period. Older age, female sex, greater OA severity, and less cortical width were identified as risk factors. Individuals who developed erosive hand OA were found to have thinner bones prior to development, suggesting it is a disorder of skeletal frailty.

Summary: This study investigates the prevalence, incidence, and progression of radiographic and symptomatic hand osteoarthritis (OA), and identifies complex differences by age, sex, race, and other risk factors. Women have higher rates of symptomatic hand OA, but only nonsignificantly higher rates of incident radiographic hand OA than men. Black men and women have lower rates of hand OA than White participants, but Black men have higher rates of prevalent hand OA than Black women at younger ages.

Summary: This study assessed the relationship between walking for exercise and symptomatic and structural disease progression in individuals with knee osteoarthritis (OA). The findings suggest that walking for exercise is associated with a lower frequency of knee pain in individuals with knee OA aged 50 years or older. This supports the recommendation to encourage walking for exercise in people with knee OA and highlights the potential disease-modifying effects of walking, which require further investigation.

Summary: In this cohort, physical activity during adolescence modified the association between prenatal serum PFOA concentrations and cardiometabolic risk in children, suggesting that lifestyle interventions may alleviate the adverse effects of PFOA exposure. However, diet did not modify any associations.
