TL;DR: The results of this meta-analysis suggest that patients with type 2 diabetes treated with DPP4i do not have a higher risk of developing cancers than patients treated with a placebo or other drugs.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that high mobility group protein AT-hook 2 is required for C/EBPβ-mediated expression of PPARγ, and thus promotes adipogenic differentiation, and indicates that HMGA2 is an essential constituent of the adipogenic transcription factor network, and therefore its function may be affected during the course of obesity.

TL;DR: The rural areas in Ningbo had a high prevalence of pre-diabetes, and overweight and obesity, hypertension, and elevated triglycerides were the major risk factors.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that as a downstream target of the IL6/STAT3 signaling, lncRNA GACAT3 promotes gastric cancer cell growth suggesting that GACat3 is an inflammatory response gene and may be served as a valuable potential target for the treatment of Gastric cancer.

TL;DR: Evidence that obesity-related gene mutations, insulin and insulin-like growth factor signaling pathways, chronic inflammation, and altered adipokine levels often function interdependently rather than independently in carcinogenesis is presented.
