Dysregulated Iron Metabolism-Associated Dietary Pattern Predicts an Altered Body Composition and Metabolic Syndrome
Currently, the role of diet in the development of DIM remains unclear. A reduced-rank regression (RRR) analysis, a data-driven (exploratory) method to characterize major patterns of food intake, is regarded as an approach to dissect the link between diet and chronic diseases. The broad aim of this study was to investigate dietary patterns that are associated with DIM and their predictive effects on the body composition and MetS in 208 Taiwanese adults.

Sleeve Gastrectomy and Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass Lead to Comparable Changes in Body Composition in a Multiethnic Asian Population
Changes in body composition after bariatric surgery such as a sustained loss of body fat are often associated with an inevitable loss of fat free mass. This can contribute to an undesirable disturbance in resting metabolic rate and weight maintenance. Our aim was to study changes in body composition in a multiethnic Asian cohort following bariatric surgery and to identify differences between laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.

The Efficacy of Body Mass Index and Total Body Fat Percent in Diagnosis Obesity according to Menopausal Status
Body mass index (BMI) is commonly used in epidemiological study or clinical center. However, it is not exactly correlated with body fat composition and does not reflect sex, age, or race. The aim of this article is to evaluate the validity of BMI standards relative to total body fat (TBF) and to estimate new BMI criteria that correspond to TBF for obesity, especially for Asian postmenopausal women.
