Summary: In this pilot study, responsive deep brain stimulation (DBS) was used to improve self-control of food intake and weight loss in two patients with binge eating disorder (BED) and severe obesity. Increased low-frequency oscillations in the nucleus accumbens (NAc), recorded during food cravings preceding loss of control (LOC) eating, were used to guide the delivery of DBS. Over 6 months, improved self-control of food intake and weight loss were observed. Further research with larger sample sizes is needed to determine the scalability of this approach.

Summary: Although bariatric surgeries in Lebanon and the Middle East are increasing, studies on diet quality, binge eating, and food cravings peri-operatively are lacking. This cross-sectional study evaluated binge eating behaviors, food cravings, and the Healthy Eating Index (HEI) in Lebanese patients post-BS. Despite improvements in HEI scores, most participants remained in the worst category.

Summary: This study used smartphone-based ecological momentary assessment (EMA) to evaluate the trajectory of change in eating behaviors, appetite, and other aspects of eating regulation in 71 bariatric surgery patients. The results showed that there was an overall improvement in eating patterns after surgery, but some variables related to hedonic hunger and craving showed less consistent patterns. It is important to conduct further research to understand the mechanisms behind changes in eating behavior after surgery and to find effective interventions to maintain the beneficial effects.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of food addiction (FA) and binge eating (BE) two years after sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and their associations with weight outcomes. The results showed that 40.0% of participants had FA and 46.7% had BE before surgery. The prevalence of FA and BE decreased during the early postoperative period but remained significant at two years. Preoperative BE was associated with higher weight regain.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the relationships between childhood maltreatment and changes in weight, depressive symptoms, and eating behavior post-bariatric surgery (BS). The results showed that patients with a history of sexual abuse had limited improvements in emotional eating after 12 months, while those without reported improvements. Moreover, patients with a history of emotional neglect showed greater improvements in external eating at 6 months, but the differences were no longer significant by 12 months. These findings suggest the importance of assessing, monitoring, and developing potential interventions for changes in eating behavior after BS in patients with a history of maltreatment.

Summary: The study conducted a secondary analysis of the Sharik Diet and Health National Survey in Saudi Arabia in July 2021. It found that over 36% of bariatric surgery patients experienced changes in food taste, around 15% reported decreased allergic reactions to food, and 68.1% had changes in food preferences. The study also revealed an association between consuming more red meat, chicken, and energy drinks and decreased consumption of grains and rice among those who underwent bariatric surgery. More research, including clinical follow-up, is needed to better understand these changes in the Saudi population.

Summary: The study compared the effects of sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) on the remission of type 2 diabetes and beta-cell function. It found that SG resulted in greater reductions in protein, fiber, magnesium, potassium, and fruits and berries intake compared to RYGB. RYGB led to an increase in yogurt and fermented milk products intake. Both surgeries improved hedonic hunger and binge eating problems, while most gastrointestinal symptoms and food tolerance remained stable at 1 year.

Summary: Compared to traditional agriculture, microbial protein (MP) production is highly efficient in nitrogen (N) usage and can increase the sustainability of food production by utilizing various recovered N sources. In this study, the potential of seven recovered N sources from different waste streams for MP production was evaluated using ethanol and acetate as growth substrates. The results showed that most of the recovered N sources had minimal impact on MP kinetics and biomass yield compared to their commercial equivalents. The nutritional quality of the MP was similar to soy flour, and there were no major variations in its macromolecular composition, amino acid profile, and lipid profile across different recovered N sources. However, the microbial biomass had high copper content and contained substantial amounts of polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), which could pose potential health concerns. The presence of antibiotics and pesticides in the biomass did not raise major concerns for food applications. Overall, this study found no evidence to restrict the use of microbial biomass produced on recovered nitrogen as food.

Summary: This paper proposes recommendations to improve and harmonize the collection of active AE solicitation in prophylactic vaccine clinical trials. The recommendations include using limited lists of solicited AEs adapted to the vaccine technology and target population, harmonizing grading criteria in infants/children, not considering solicited systemic AEs causally related to vaccination, collecting solicited AEs in cohorts of a maximum of 1,000 vaccinated participants, and comparing the incidence of daily solicited AEs with a control group for improved interpretations of their clinical relevance.

Summary: This study aimed to assess maternal dietary intake patterns, anthropometric measures, and biochemical markers in women with gestational diabetes mellitus and pregnancy-specific urinary incontinence. The results showed that pregnant women in the gestational diabetes mellitus pregnancy-specific urinary incontinence group had higher body mass index, arm circumference, and triceps skinfold than the other groups, indicating an obesogenic maternal environment. Significant differences in dietary food intake were also observed. The study emphasizes the need for a comprehensive strategy for pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus and pregnancy-specific urinary incontinence to address obesity and micronutrient deficiencies.

Summary: This study investigates the role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) activation on thermogenic pathways and mitochondrial metabolism in mouse adipose tissue. The results show that activation of PPARa and dual PPARa/y can reduce body mass, mitigate insulin resistance, and induce browning in white adipose tissue. Preserved mitochondrial metabolism emerges as a potential target for obesity treatment using PPAR agonists, with possible clinical applications.
