TL;DR: The overall quality of evidence available to guide development of RECOMMENDATIONS was generally low and Appropriately designed intervention trials are urgently needed for patients with IAH and ACS.
Abstract: Purpose
To update the World Society of the Abdominal Compartment Syndrome (WSACS) consensus definitions and management statements relating to intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and the abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS).

TL;DR: In this paper, the association between metabolic syndrome and risk of cardiovascular disease was examined. But the use of different definitions of the metabolic syndrome has led to inconsistent results on the association of metabolic syndrome with risk of heart disease.

TL;DR: Coronary artery calcification is common, severe and significantly associated with ischemic cardiovascular disease in adult E SRD patients and the dysregulation of mineral metabolism in ESRD may influence vascular calcification risk.

TL;DR: Although many studies have found that childhood levels of body mass index (BMI; kg/m 2 ) are associated with adult levels, it has been re- ported that childhood BMI is not associated with Adult adiposity as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: Objective. Although many studies have found that childhood levels of body mass index (BMI; kg/m 2 ) are associated with adult levels, it has been re- ported that childhood BMI is not associated with adult adiposity. We further examined these longitudinal asso- ciations. Design. Cohort study based on examinations between 1973 and 1996. Setting. Bogalusa, Louisiana. Participants. Children (2610; ages 2-17 years old) who were followed to ages 18 to 37 years; the mean follow-up was 17.6 years. Main Outcome Measures. BMI-for-age and triceps skinfold thickness (SF) were measured in childhood. Subscapular and triceps SFs were measured among adults, and the mean SF was used as an adiposity index. Adult obesity was defined as a BMI > 30 kg/m 2 and adult overfat as a mean SF in the upper (gender-specific) quar- tile. Results. Childhood levels of both BMI and triceps SF were associated with adult levels of BMI and adiposity. The magnitude of these longitudinal associations in- creased with childhood age, but the BMI levels of even the youngest (ages 2-5 years) children were moderately associated (r 0.33-0.41) with adult adiposity. Over- weight (BMI-for-age > 95th centile) 2- to 5-year-olds were >4 times as likely to become overfat adults (15 of 23 (65%)), as were children with a BMI < 50th centile (30 of 201 (15%)). Even after accounting for the triceps SF of children, BMI-for-age provided additional information on adult adiposity. Conclusions. Childhood BMI is associated with adult adiposity, but it is possible that the magnitude of this association depends on the relative fatness of children.
