Obesity is a chronic disease associated with impaired physical and mental health. A widespread view in the treatment of obesity that goal to normalize individual's body mass index (BMI). However, modest weight loss (usually above 5%) already clinical improvement, while losses 10%-15% bring even further benefits, independent from final BMI. The percentage reduction accepted as since greater decrease frequently difficult achieve due metabolic adaptation along environmental lifestyle factors....
Introduction: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), previously known as Nonalcoholic fatty (NAFLD), is one of the most common hepatic diseases in individuals with overweight or obesity. In this context, a panel experts from three medical societies was organized to develop an evidence-based guideline on screening, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up MASLD. Material methods: A MEDLINE search performed identify randomized clinical trials, meta-analyses, cohort...
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is one of the leading causes chronic globally. Based on 2023 definition, MASLD characterized by presence metabolic dysfunction and limited alcohol consumption (<140 grams/week for women, <210 men). Given significant burden in Latin America, this guidance was developed American Association Study Liver (ALEH) Working Group to address key aspects its clinical assessment therapeutic strategies. In ultrasonography recommended as...
O objetivo deste trabalho é traduzir para o português e avaliar a confiabilidade de uma escala diagnóstico da polineuropatia distal diabética (PNDD). processo tradução adaptação das versões simplificadas do Escore Sintomas Neuropáticos (ESN) Comprometimento Neuropático (ECN) foi realizado conforme as orientações internacionais padronizadas. As escalas foram aplicadas por dois avaliadores em 57 pacientes diabéticos selecionados seqüencialmente. Foi utilizada correlação Spearman avaliação...
BMI is a widely used method to evaluate adiposity. However, it has several limitations, particularly an inability differentiate lean from fat mass. A new method, body adiposity index (BAI), been recently proposed as measurement capable determine excess better than BMI. The aim of this study was investigate BAI mean in group women with familial partial lipodystrophy (FPLD) and compare Thirteen FLPD Dunnigan type (FPLD2) 13 healthy volunteers matched by age were studied. Body content...

Peripheral Diabetic Neuropathy (PDN) and cognitive impairment are complications of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) that seem to share several underlying mechanisms. The aim this study was investigate whether diabetic patients would have worse function than non individuals within patients, those with PDN present an even more significant impairment.Ninety four (94) outpatients Type 2 DM were sequentially evaluated. Also, Fifty (54) healthy selected match the group. For assessment neuropathy, Portuguese...
A presença de depressão no paciente com diabetes mellitus (DM) parece relacionar-se a alterações curso clínico da doença.

Foram analisadas informações referentes à prevalência, ao impacto tratamento DM. prevalência variou 0...
Abstract Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia worldwide. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) a disease characterized by insulin resistance (IR) and progressive β cell failure, affected individuals are at increased risk to develop several forms cognitive dysfunction, including AD. Different mechanisms have already been identified linking visceral obesity, IR Insulin associated with decrease in glucose uptake neurons, an increase Amyloid production secretion, formation...
