Effects of high-dairy versus low-dairy, high-protein and low-calorie diets combined with aerobic exercise on central body fat in overweight women: A pragmatic randomized controlled trial
Obesity is one of the most concerning public health issues, and it is known as a predisposing factor for many chronic cardiometabolic diseases. Overweight individuals should be included in preventative interventions. Combining a high-dairy, high-Protein and low-calorie diet might help reduce appetite and body weight more effectively. We aimed to assess whether this approach, coupled with moderate-intensity aerobic activity, would be more effective in helping overweight women reduce central fat accumulation than a low-dairy diet, high in protein and low in calories.

Relationship between DNA methylation changes and skeletal muscle mass
Sarcopenia is a disease diagnosed in the elderly. In patients with sarcopenia, the muscle mass decreases every year. The occurrence of sarcopenia is greatly affected by extrinsic factors such as eating habits, exercise, and lifestyle. The present study aimed to determine the relationship between muscle mass traits and genes affected by epigenetic factors with three different adjustment methods using Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study (KOGES) data.

Whole-Body Cryotherapy Alters Circulating MicroRNA Profile in Postmenopausal Women
The incidence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) increases with age, especially in women. The role of microRNAs (miRs) in the regulation of metabolism is postulated. The aim of the study is to identify miRs that may be markers of MetS and to assess changes in miRs expression as a result of 10 and 20 whole-body cryotherapy treatments.
