This study aimed to find blood and tissue markers that could predict whether obese patients with type 2 diabetes would go into remission after bariatric surgery. Researchers planned to measure 9 specific molecules in blood samples and also collect fat and muscle tissue during sur…

This study tested a new technique that uses a special form of creatine (deuterated creatine) to measure muscle mass more directly and accurately in older adults. The goal was to see if this method works well in both healthy older adults and those recovering from a hip fracture. T…
