A recent study has established the association of increased background parenchymal enhancement (BPE) with obesity, insulin resistance, leptin, and adiponectin in premenopausal women who are at high risk of breast cancer.

In the ARAMIS* trial, dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) using clopidogrel and aspirin was noninferior to intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) using alteplase in Chinese patients with minor nondisabling ischaemic stroke presenting within 4.5 hours of symptom onset.

Behavioural weight-loss interventions, such as diet alone and diet plus physical activity (PA), induce a beneficial change in biomarkers of insulin resistance and cardiometabolic health in adults with overweight or obesity, reports a study. However, no additional benefit has been observed with the addition of moderate-intensity PA to a diet-only intervention.

The incidence of sexually transmitted infection (STI) over the first 4 years of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) use remains high and stable, but the incidence of chlamydia and gonorrhea has slightly decreased among daily PrEP users, as shown in a study presented at the 30th Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections (CROI).

Researchers from the University of Hong Kong (HKU) have developed a nanoparticle-based targeted drug delivery system that selectively transports thyroid hormone (TH) to adipose tissue, which may improve treatment of obesity and its related cardiometabolic complications by overcoming serious adverse events (AEs) associated with systematic TH administration.
