Article Abstract
Bisphenol A (BPA) is suspected to be associated with several chronic metabolic diseases. The aim of the present study was to review previous epidemiological studies that examined the relationship between BPA exposure and the risk of obesity. PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase databases were systematically searched by 2 independent investigators for articles published from the start of database coverage until January 1, 2020. Subsequently, the reference list of each relevant article was scanned for any other potentially eligible publications. We included observational studies published in English that measured urinary BPA. Odds ratios with corresponding 95% confidence intervals for the highest versus lowest level of BPA were calculated. Ten studies with a sample size from 888 to 4793 participants met our inclusion criteria. We found a positive correlation between the level of BPA and obesity risk. A dose-response analysis revealed that 1-ng/mL increase in BPA increased the risk of obesity by 11%. The similar results were for different type of obesity, gender, and age.

September 2025
Department of General and Visceral Surgery, University Hospital Brandenburg an der Havel, Brandenburg an der Havel, Germany.
Background: Perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis (PAP) prior to laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery is still under debate due to a lack of high evidence. Thus, the study at hand aimed to find out whether this medication lowers the rate of postoperative complications or not.
Methods: In 2020, a retrospective analysis took place at Helios Hospital Berlin Buch, Germany.

Prevention of Metabolic Disorders Research Center, Research Institute for Endocrine Sciences, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.
Aims And Background: Relative fat mass (RFM) is strongly associated with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and has been shown to be a better predictor than body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC). This study aims to investigate the association between RFM and incident T2DM among adults in the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study cohort.
Methods: Data from 8419 participants (4716 women; mean age, 40.

Aims: Young people are consuming less healthy diets such as Mediterranean diet (MedDiet), which is associated with an increased risk of chronic diseases, including obesity. This systematic review aimed to synthesize the literature concerning the prevalence and trends of adherence to the (MedDiet) in a young Spanish population (aged 2-24 years) from 2004 to 2023.
Data Synthesis: The present review included observational studies and final assessments of longitudinal studies to assess the prevalence or trend in adherence to the MedDiet using the Mediterranean Diet Quality Index for Children and Adolescents (KIDMED) in three categories (low (≤3), medium (4-7), and high (≥8)).

Background And Aims: Obesity-related non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) are known to be associated to some extent. Nevertheless, this relationship remains unclear in non-obese individuals.
Methods And Results: A prospective cohort study was conducted using data from the health check ups of employees at Zhenhai Refining and Chemical Hospital in Ningbo City.

Background: Epidemiologic studies have linked neighborhood socioeconomic conditions to health. However, few have examined neighborhood structural investment (NSI) influences on cardiometabolic risk markers across urban environments. This study investigated whether NSI varies by historic redlining, associations between NSI and the prevalence of obesity, diabetes, and coronary heart disease (CHD) and whether redlining's effect on obesity, diabetes, and CHD prevalence are mediated by neighborhood structural investment.
