Obesity is a global epidemic with enormous social and economic burdens. Bariatric metabolic surgery (BMS) is the most effective treatment for obesity, and its mechanism has been explored. More and more clinical studies have confirmed that the brain-enteric-bacterial axis plays an important role in the pathophysiological mechanism of obesity, but there is a lack of review in this field. In this paper, the brain-entero-bacterial axis mechanism of changes in the nervous system, metabolism, endocrine system, immune system and microbial group in patients with obesity after BMS was reviewed, in order to clarify the mechanism of BMS treatment for obesity and provide relevant basis and reference for postoperative weight management in patients with obesity.

Background:Chronic insomnia disorder (CID) is considered a major public health problem worldwide. Therefore, innovative and effective technical methods for studying the pathogenesis and clinical comprehensive treatment of CID are urgently needed.Methods:Real-time fMRI neurofeedback (rtfMRI-NF), a new intervention, was used to train 28 patients with CID to regulate their amygdala activity for three sessions in 6 weeks. Resting-state fMRI data were collected before and after training. Then, voxel-based degree centrality (DC) method was used to explore the effect of rtfMRI-NF training. For regions with altered DC, we determined the specific connections to other regions that most strongly contributed to altered functional networks based on DC. Furthermore, the relationships between the DC value of the altered regions and changes in clinical variables were determined.Results:Patients with CID showed increased DC in the right postcentral gyrus, Rolandic operculum, insula, and superior parietal gyrus and decreased DC in the right supramarginal gyrus, inferior parietal gyrus, angular gyrus, middle occipital gyrus, and middle temporal gyrus. Seed-based functional connectivity analyses based on the altered DC regions showed more details about the altered functional networks. Clinical scores in Pittsburgh sleep quality index, insomnia severity index (ISI), Beck depression inventory, and Hamilton anxiety scale decreased. Furthermore, a remarkable positive correlation was found between the changed ISI score and DC values of the right insula.Conclusions:This study confirmed that amygdala-based rtfMRI-NF training altered the intrinsic functional hubs, which reshaped the abnormal functional connections caused by insomnia and improved the sleep of patients with CID. These findings contribute to our understanding of the neurobiological mechanism of rtfMRI-NF in insomnia treatment. However, additional double-blinded controlled clinical trials with larger sample sizes need to be conducted to confirm the effect of rtfMRI-NF from this initial study.

BackgroundChronic insomnia disorder (CID) is a highly prevalent sleep disorder, which influences people's daily life and is even life threatening. However, whether the resting-state regional homogeneity (ReHo) of disrupted brain regions in CID can be reshaped to normal after treatment remains unclear. MethodsA novel intervention real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging neurofeedback (rtfMRI-NF) was used to train 28 CID patients to regulate the activity of the left amygdala for three sessions in 6 weeks. The ReHo methodology was adopted to explore its role on resting-state fMRI data, which were collected before and after training. Moreover, the relationships between changes of clinical variables and ReHo value of altered regions were determined. ResultsResults showed that the bilateral dorsal medial pre-frontal cortex, supplementary motor area (SMA), and left dorsal lateral pre-frontal cortex had decreased ReHo values, whereas the bilateral cerebellum anterior lobe (CAL) had increased ReHo values after training. Some clinical scores markedly decreased, including Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Insomnia Severity Index, Beck Depression Inventory, and Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA). Additionally, the ReHo values of the left CAL were positively correlated with the change in the Hamilton depression scale score, and a remarkable positive correlation was found between the ReHo values of the right SMA and the HAMA score. ConclusionOur study provided an objective evidence that amygdala-based rtfMRI-NF training could reshape abnormal ReHo and improve sleep in patients with CID. The improved ReHo in CID provides insights into the neurobiological mechanism for the effectiveness of this intervention. However, larger double-blinded sham-controlled trials are needed to confirm our results from this initial study.
Abstract Background: The interaction between osteoporosis-related bone microenvironment (BMD)and tumor may accelerate bone metastasis. However, the relationship between osteoporosis and lung cancer bone metastasis is unknown. Methods: We performed opportunistic screening for osteoporosis using chest low-dose computerized tomography (LDCT) to assess a relationship between osteoporosis and bone metastases from lung cancer. We used quantitative computed tomography (QCT) software to measure spinal trabecular BMD; we evaluated the density distribution by the American College of Radiology QCT diagnostic criteria for osteoporosis. The diagnosis of bone metastases was based on imaging methods. We obtained optimal cut-off for age by X-tile analysis. Univariate and multivariate COX survival analysis was used to compare the relationship between osteoporosis and bone metastases from lung cancer, and whether age and sex had an effect on the relationship. Results: At baseline, 401 patients with lung cancer, mean age ± standard deviation (SD) 61.7 ± 9.7 years, underwent LDCT opportunistic screening for lung cancer and osteoporosis, including 240 men (mean age ± SD 62.3 ± 9.7 years) and 161 women (mean age ± SD 60.7 ± 9.6 years). During a median follow-up of 21.3 months, 59 patients with lung cancer progressed to bone metastases. Regression analysis showed that the risk of lung cancer bone metastasis for men with osteoporosis was adjusted hazard ratios (HR) 95% confidence interval (CI)(0.27 0.14-0.50), P<0.001. After adjusting for age and sex, regression analysis showed that the lung cancer with osteoporosis for men was adjusted HR 95%CI(0.29 0.14-0.57), P<0.001 ,and greater for patients aged 63 older (adjusted HR 95%CI, 0.32 0.15-0.69 P<0.001). The progression time of bone metastases in patients with lung cancer and osteoporosis was faster, but not statistically different than the progression time of patients without osteoporosis. Conclusion: Overall, our study showed that osteoporosis diagnosed by low-dose chest CT opportunistic screening was associated with bone metastases from lung cancer. The findings proved that osteoporosis was an important risk factor for bone metastases from lung cancer, but osteoporosis cannot accelerate the time to progression of bone metastases. Our study highlights the clinical value of screening for osteoporosis in the prevention and treatment of bone metastases from lung cancer. Trial registration: The study approved by the Ethics Committee of the Henan Provincial 65 People's Hospital.(Ethical Approval Number: 2021 Aaron trial Examination No. (68)).
