- Responsiveness was better detected by both Asthma Clinical Score (ACS) and Pediatric Respiratory Assessment Measure (PRAM) in normal‑weight vs obese asthmatic children; ACS 34% vs 23%, PRAM 28% vs 3.7%
- Obesity reduced interrater reliability and responsiveness of both scores but improved prediction of hospitalization
- Obese children were at a higher risk of receiving more intensive treatments.
10 Apr, 26Obesity.
- As per the analysis of 15 RCTs (14,059 adults non-diabetics), all GLP 1 agents reduced weight vs placebo
- Tirzepatide showed greatest efficacy: max dose yielded largest loss, followed by 15 mg, 10 mg, semaglutide 2.4 mg, tirzepatide 5 mg, & liraglutide 3 mg
- Adverse events were higher with tirzepatide & semaglutide but not with liraglutide
- Tirzepatide proved to be the most effective FDA-approved option for weight lo...

- C-reactive protein-triglyceride-glucose index (CTI), calculated as 0.412 × ln(CRP) + ln(TG × FPG/2), was evaluated in 266,049 UK Biobank participants free of CMD at baseline
- High CTI predicted elevated risks: T2DM (HR 3.60), CHD (HR 1.52), stroke (HR 1.11), first CMD (FCMD; HR 1.86), CMM (HR 2.50), & death (HR 1.25)
- CTI showed superior predictive value over TyG & CRP & may be valuable as a CMM screening tool.

- In 84,229 adults with diabetes (mean age 58.3 y), reduced A1c time in range strongly predicted mortality
- Each 20% decrement increased risk (HR 1.30); instrumental variable models confirmed the link (HR 1.28)
- Mortality was higher in ≥60 y, ≥60% time below range further raised risk (HR 1.35)
- A1c stability may be critical for outcome prediction in adults with diabetes.
