objective To analyze the impact of body mass index (BMI) on medical and surgical complications of colorectal cancer patients served by West China Hospital, based on the current version of Database from Colorectal Cancer (DACCA). Methods The data of DACCA was updated on September 27, 2021. The data included BMI, surgical complications, liver nodules, liver function, renal nodules, renal function, operation history, medical complications, diabetes, hypertension, pneumonia, pulmonary nodules, pulmonary function, heart disease, thrombosis, and cardiac function. Results After scanning, 5 305 data rows were included. BMI was divided by Chinese four classification methods. The analysis results showed that in terms of surgical complications, obese patients were more likely to be complicated with surgical complications of digestive system (χ2= 43.883, P<0.001) and reproductive system (χ2=13.139, P=0.004). Lean patients were more likely to have surgical complications of urinary system (χ2=223.415, P<0.001), and obese patients had liver function (H=61.521, P<0.001) and renal function (H=9.994, P=0.019) might be even worse. In terms of operation history, BMI in colorectal cancer patients had nothing to do with the number of times of operation (H=6.262, P=0.100), and operation history of each system or department (P>0.05). Regarding to medical complications, with the increase of BMI, the risk of colorectal cancer patients with diabetes mellitus (χ2=118.597, P<0.001), or hypertension (χ2= 163.334, P< 0.001) increased. Patients with low BMI were more likely to have pneumonia (H=7.899, P= 0.048) and worse pulmonary function (H=40.673, P<0.001). Conclusions The analysis results of DACCA database show that BMI is not related to the occurrence of any special surgical history included in the research. Because the internal and external complications of patients are closely related to the treatment plan and prognosis, we should pay more attention to the obese patients in the process of clinical treatment, and they are more likely to have multisystemic abnormalities and various abnormal indicators than other patients. For thin patients, we should pay more attention to their lung function and inflammatory lesions, so as to improve the clinical therapeutic effect.

MethodsA survey, including height, weight, blood pressure and pulse, was carried out in a general population of Chengdu. A total of 711 subjects (average age: 63.28±6.25 years; male: 57.8%) were recruited by random sampling method. Results：The proportion of overweight and obesity was about 45%. The hypertension prevalence rate was significantly positively correlated with BMI (Plt;0.01), and that was also seen in the level of SBP and DBP for the female (Plt;0.05). In logistic regression analysis adjusting for age, gender, waist, uric acid, the standardized OR for higher BMI (≥28.0 kg/m2) as a risk factor of hypertension was 5.140. Conclusion：The proportion of overweight and obesity was great in Chengdu area. BMI can affect the prevalence rate of hypertension and the level of blood pressure.
Objective To investigate the effect of body mass index (BMI) on the short-term effectiveness of high tibial osteotomy (HTO) in the treatment of varus knee arthritis. Methods The clinical data of 84 patients (84 knees) with varus knee arthritis treated with HTO between May 2016 and August 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. According to BMI, the patients were divided into normal group (32 patients in group A, BMI<25 kg/m2), overweight group (27 patients in group B, BMI>30 kg/m2), and obese group (25 patients in group C, BMI>30 kg/m2). The BMI of groups A, B, and C were (23.35±0.89), (26.65±1.03), and (32.05±1.47) kg/m2, respectively. There was no significant difference (P>0.05) in gender, age, surgical side, disease duration, and preoperative Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score, visual analogue scale (VAS) score, knee range of motion, and hip-knee-ankle angle (HKA) between groups. The operation time, intraoperative dominant blood loss, and the decrease of hemoglobin on the 3rd day after operation were recorded and compared between groups. The improvement of knee joint function and pain status were evaluated by knee joint HSS score, knee range of motion, and VAS score before and after operation, and measuring the HKA of patients on X-ray film. During the follow-up, the X-ray films of the knee joint were reexamined to observe the position of the internal fixator and the healing of osteotomy. Results All patients completed the operation successfully and were followed up 8-40 months (mean, 19.3 months). There was no significant difference in follow-up time, operation time, intraoperative dominant blood loss, and the decrease of hemoglobin on the 3rd day after operation between groups (P>0.05). No operative complications such as severe vascular or nerve injury occurred. After operation, deep venous thrombosis of lower extremities occurred in 1 case in groups A and B respectively, and fat liquefaction of surgical incision occurred in 2 cases in group C. There was no significant difference in the incidence of perioperative complications between groups (3.1% vs. 3.7% vs. 8.0%) (P=0.689). During the follow-up, there was no bone nonunion, plate fracture or loosening. At last follow-up, HSS score, VAS score, knee range of motion, and HKA significantly improved in the 3 groups when compared with those before operation (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in the differences of the above indexes between groups before and after operation (P>0.05). Conclusion BMI does not affect the short-term effectiveness of HTO in the treatment of varus knee arthritis. HTO can be selected for overweight and obese patients after standard medical treatment is ineffective.
ObjectiveTo observe the changes in body mass index (BMI) among male patients aged between 20 and 30 years with fatty liver disease after they undergo an exercise-based weight loss program, this study will map the trajectory of BMI changes and analyze the association between different BMI change trajectories and the degree of insulin resistance.MethodsA total of 148 male patients with fatty liver disease aged 20–30 years who underwent physical examination at the Southern Medical Branch of PLA General Hospital from June 2024 to August 2024 were prospectively enrolled as research subjects. Based on the data of changes in BMI of the patients at baseline, 1, 2 and 3 months after exercise, a growth mixture model (GMM) was used to construct a BMI change trajectory model. Repeated-measures analysis of variance was performed to analyze the levels of homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) among patients with different BMI change trajectories. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to explore the association between the BMI change trajectory and HOMA-IR level. ResultsResults of GMM indicated that when three classes were constructed, the model had an entropy value closer to 1, along with smaller values of the Akaike information criterion and Bayesian information criterion. The three classes were named the slow weight loss group, regular weight loss group, and rapid weight loss group, respectively. There were statistically significant differences in uncertain psychological stress scores, sleep quality scores, low density lipoprotein, high density lipoprotein, total cholesterol, triglyceride, fasting plasma glucose, fasting insulin, HOMA-IR, and fatty liver severity among patients with different BMI change trajectories (all P<0.05). Repeated-measures analysis of variance showed that the time effect, intergroup effect, and interaction effect of HOMA-IR among the three groups were all statistically significant (Ftime=3.990, Ptime=0.027; Fgroup=8.880, Pgoup<0.001; Finteraction=5.046, Pinteraction=0.002). These results indicated that HOMA-IR level increased over time, and the impact of the time factor on HOMA-IR varied depending on different BMI change trajectories. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the HOMA-IR levels were significantly lower in both the regular weight loss group (β=?0.237, P=0.001) and the rapid weight loss group (β=?0.386, P<0.001) compared with the slow weight loss group. ConclusionIn male patients with fatty liver disease aged 20–30 years, there are different trajectories of BMI changes after exercise-induced weight loss, which are associated with insulin resistance.
ObjectiveTo explore the correlation of BMI and 25 hydroxyvitamin D3 level with colon cancer.MethodsA total of 100 cases who underwent colonoscopy and were excluded from bowel diseases at the physical examination center of the First Hospital of Qinhuangdao from March 2017 to October 2017 were retrospectively selected as the control group. A total of 100 patients who underwent colonoscopy at general surgery or physical examination center and were confirmed to have colon cancer by pathological examination were included in the colon cancer group. The height, weight and body mass index (BMI) were measured in the morning, and the level of 25 hydroxyvitamin D3 (25(OH)D3) was determined by fasting blood sampling.Results① There was no statistical significance in age and 25(OH)D3 level between the two groups (P>0.05), and BMI of the colon cancer group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). ② The proportion of overweight and obesity in the colon cancer group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05), and the proportion of vitamin D deficiency was significantly higher as well (P<0.05). ③ Logistic regression analysis showed that the incidence of colon cancer in patients with vitamin D deficiency was 12.263 times higher than that in patients without vitamin D deficiency, and the incidence of colon cancer in patients with overweight and obesity was 2.215 times higher than that in patients with normal BMI, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05).ConclusionThe incidence of colon cancer in patients with vitamin D deficiency and those with BMI of overweight or obesity is significantly increased.
Objective To explore relationship between body mass index and all-cause mortality or cancer-specific mortality of colorectal cancer. Methods The published articles relevant body mass index and colorectal cancer mortality were retrieved according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria from PubMed, Elsevier-Science Direct, and Web of Science databases. The meta-analysis was performed with RevMan 5.3 software. Results A total of 14 articles were eligible for the meta-analysis, involved 53 804 patients (colorectal cancer patients with underweight 1 853 cases, colorectal cancer patients with overweight 9 088 cases, colorectal cancer patients with obesity 4 463 cases). The results of meta-analysis showed that the colorectal cancer patients with obesity and underweight had the higher all-cause mortalities 〔RR=1.11, 95% CI (1.06, 1.16), P<0.000 01; RR=1.34, 95% CI (1.11, 1.61), P=0.002〕 and colorectal cancer-specific mortalities 〔RR=1.15, 95% CI (1.05, 1.24), P=0.001; RR=1.33, 95% CI (1.09, 1.62), P=0.005〕 as compared with the colorectal cancer patients with normal weight. The all-cause mortality and colorectal cancer-specific mortality had no significant differences between the colorectal cancer patients with overweight and the colorectal cancer patients with normal weight 〔RR=0.96, 95% CI (0.89, 1.04), P=0.31; RR=1.00, 95% CI (0.90, 1.12), P=0.98〕 . Conclusion Colorectal cancer patients with obesity and underweight might have a higher mortality rate.
Objective To explore the correlation between body mass index (BMI) and disease severity in patients with spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3). Methods Patients who visited the Department of Neurology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University with a confirmed diagnosis of SCA3 between July 2022 and August 2023 were selected as a case group, and healthy individuals between June 2024 and October 2024 were selected as a control group, and the BMI levels of the two groups were compared. Patient demographics and clinical statistics were collected, the severity of ataxia in SCA3 patients was assessed using the Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxi, and the relationship between BMI and disease severity was evaluated. Results A total of 101 patients and 101 healthy individuals were included. The BMI levels of SCA3 patients were significantly lower than those of normal controls (t=?2.370, P=0.019). The results of the multiple linear regression model showed that the BMI, disease duration and smoking history had an effect on the disease severity of SCA3 patients (P<0.05), and disease duration and disease severity had a significant effect on the disease progression in SCA3 patients (P<0.05). Conclusion There may be a correlation between BMI and disease severity in SCA3 patients, and controlling the BMI level may help to control the disease in SCA3 patients.
Objective To analyze the current status and temporal trends of the disease burden of osteoarthritis (OA) in China from 1990 to 2023, stratified by anatomical sites (knee, hip, hand, and other), utilizing data from the 2023 Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study, and to explore the site-specific heterogeneity of disease burden attributed to high body mass index (BMI), providing a scientific basis for formulating precision prevention and control strategies.Methods Based on the GBD 2023 database, data on the incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability (YLDs), as well as their corresponding age-standardized rates of OA in China from 1990 to 2023, were collected and stratified by gender, age, and anatomical site (knee, hip, hand, and other). A log-linear regression model was employed to calculate the estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) to analyze temporal trends. Additionally, the population attributable fraction (PAF) was used to quantify the contribution of high BMI to OA across different sites and to analyze the heterogeneity of this attribution. Results In 2023, the disease burden of OA in China increased. In terms of anatomical distribution, knee OA constituted the heaviest burden, with 115.0032 million prevalent cases, accounting for approximately 65.78% of the total. Attribution analysis showed that knee OA was slightly more affected by high BMI than hip OA, and the PAF increased significantly over time. In 2023, the PAFs for knee and hip OA in females (29.49% and 28.57%, respectively) were substantially higher than those in 1990 (19.10% and 18.38%). A similar upward trend was observed in males (26.65% and 25.92% in 2023). Regarding attribution differences, female PAF levels were consistently higher than those of males across all years and sites. Hand OA exhibited the fastest growth rate, with the EAPC of its age-standardized YLDs rate reaching 1.64%, far exceeding that of knee OA (0.43%). Demographically, all burden indicators were higher in females than in males. Hand OA demonstrated an intergenerational cumulative effect. The difference in YLDs rates between 2023 and 1990 widened with age, reaching 123.29 per 100 000 in the >95 years old group, highlighting the severe challenges posed by population aging. Conclusion From 1990 to 2023, the disease burden of OA in China continued to rise. Knee OA remains the heaviest burden category and is significantly driven by high BMI, whereas hand OA shows the fastest growth trend. Prevention and control strategies should focus on weight management for knee and hip OA, while prioritizing the prevention and care of hand OA in the elderly population.
In this study we performed Tissue Doppler Imaging (TDI), two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging (2D-STI) and three-dimensional speckle tracking imaging (3D-STI) on enrolled healthy, overweight and obese groups (34 subjects in each group), respectively, to analyze cardiac structure and its function. Compared with healthy group, global longitudinal strain (GLS), global circumferential strain (GCS), global area strain(GAS) and global radial strain (GRS) decreased progressively (P＜0.05). The ratio of early diastolic mitral inflow velocity to global early diastolic strain rate of left ventricle (E/e′sr) (r=0.466, P＜0.001), GLS(r=0.502, P＜0.001), GCS(r=0.426, P＜0.001), GAS(r=0.535, P＜0.001) and GRS(r=-0.554, P＜0.001) were correlated with body mass index (BMI). E/e′sr (r=0.37, P=0.003), GLS(r=0.455, P＜0.001), GCS(r=0.282, P=0.02), GAS(r=0.412, P＜0.001) and GRS (r=-0.471, P＜0.001) were correlated with free fatty acid (FFA). Stepwise multiple linear regression revealed that BMI was independently correlated with E/e′sr, GLS, GCS, GAS and GRS. Waist to hip ratio (WHR) was independently correlated with GLS, GCS, GAS and GRS. FFA was independently correlated with E/e′sr(P＜0.05). The study showed that cardiac structure changed and impaired left ventricular global systolic and diastolic function in overweight and obes population. Moreover, BMI, WHR and FFA may be independent influence factors of cardiac function in overweight and obese population.
ObjectiveTo explore the effect of body mass index (BMI) on the outcomes of laparoscopic surgery for esophageal hiatal hernia.MethodsWe divided the patients who underwent hiatal hernioraphy and fundoplication surgery in our hospital between July 2013 and June 2018 into two groups according to the BMI: a group A, BMI ≥24 kg/m2, 77 patients, 41 males, 36 females, with an average age of 42 years; a group B: BMI<24 kg/m2, 63 patients, 38 males, 25 females, with an average age of 67 years, and the age, gender, type of hiatal hernia, score of subjective feeling of symptoms, level of reflux esophagitis were analyzed with the propensity score matching method. Fifty one patients were successfully matched in each group, and the curative effect of surgery was compared between the two groups.ResultsThere was no statistical difference in the type of surgery, intraoperative complications, postoperative complications, and hospital stay between the two groups (P>0.05). The operative time of the group A was significantly longer than that of the group B (P=0.023). There was no statistical difference between the two groups in postoperative recurrence (P=0.741).ConclusionThe operative time in overweight patients is significantly longer than that in the non-overweight patients, but it has no effect on the surgical outcomes and complications.
