PURPOSE: The impact of body mass index (BMI) on outcomes in respiratory failure necessitating extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has been poorly described. We aimed to assess: (i) whether adults with class II obesity or more (BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2) have worse outcomes than lean counterparts, (ii) the form of the relationship between BMI and outcom...
A high-fat diet can lead to gut microbiota dysbiosis, chronic intestinal inflammation, and metabolic syndrome. Notably, resulting phenotypes, such as glucose and insulin levels, colonic crypt cell proliferation, and macrophage infiltration, exhibit sex differences, and females are less affected. This is, in part, attributed to sex hormones. To inve...
The common cellular origin between bone marrow adipocytes (BMAds) and osteoblasts contributes to the intimate link between bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) and skeletal health. An imbalance between the differentiation ability of BMSCs towards one of the two lineages occurs in conditions like aging or osteoporosis, where bone mass is decreased. Rec...

BACKGROUND: Acrylamide is a food contaminant linked to developmental toxicity in animals and possibly in humans. OBJECTIVES: We performed a systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis of epidemiological studies evaluating the relationship between maternal acrylamide exposure during pregnancy and the risk of being small for gestational age (SG...
BACKGROUND: Obesity is a well-established risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF). Whether body fat depots differentially associate with AF development remains unknown. METHODS: In the prospective population-based Rotterdam Study, body composition was assessed using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and liver and epicardial fat using computed...
Vitamin D deficiency is a common finding in overweight/obese pregnant women and is associated with increased risk for adverse pregnancy outcome. Both maternal vitamin D deficiency and maternal obesity contribute to metabolic derangements in pregnancy. We aimed to assess the effects of vitamin D3 supplementation in pregnancy versus placebo on matern...
