J Obesity.
- A hospital based study (n=169) examined mediation of lipid biomarkers on links between anthropometric/dietary indicators & insulin resistance (IR)
- Lipid biomarkers mediated the link between WHtR & IR fully (Indirect Coef = 0.65), TG mediated the link between IR & WHR (0.55), BMI (0.76), & WC (0.72)
- LDL C (1.99) & HDL C (0.55) mediated diet–IR links, sex moderated the impact of WC on IR (interaction Coef = 5.11)

- Temporal patterns suggested that individuals with both self reported and drug treated anxiety or depression had double the risk of developing Parkinson’s disease vs. non-exposed (HR 2.02)
- The risk was highest in those treated for both conditions (HR 3.18)
- No increased risk was seen with only one criterion
- The association weakened with longer intervals and disappeared beyond 10 years.

- Systematic review/meta-analysis of 44 studies examined the link between circulating fatty acids (FA) & GDM risk
- Per 1 SD increase in C16:0 raised odds (OR 1.20), very long chain saturated FAs (C22:0, C24:0) & omega 6 FAs (C18:2, C20:2, C22:4) lowered odds of GDM
- Women with GDM had lower C22:0, C15:0, C17:0
- FA form & measurement units explained heterogeneity, distinct FA profiles were associated with GDM risk.

- A 42-yr woman had recurrent swelling at the left medial canthus 5 mo post xanthelasma excision, CT scan: patent nasolacrimal system with progressive inflammation despite treatment; contrast CT: preseptal cellulitis
- Biopsy: granulomatous inflammation with intrahistiocytic amastigotes; PCR confirmed L. donovani, treatment: liposomal amphotericin B
