The interleukin-6 (−174) G/C promoter polymorphism is associated with type-2 diabetes mellitus in Native Americans and Caucasians
Barbora Vozarova,José Manuel Fernández-Real,William C. Knowler,Lluis Gallart,Robert L. Hanson,Jonathan D. Gruber,Wilfredo Ricart,Joan Vendrell,Cristóbal Richart,P. Antonio Tataranni,Johanna K. Wolford +10 more
TL;DR: Findings are consistent with a role for genetic determinants of inflammation in the development of T2DM in both Native Americans and Caucasians.

Anna Megia,Lluis Gallart,José Manuel Fernández-Real,Joan Vendrell,I. Simón,Cristina Gutierrez,Cristóbal Richart +6 more
TL;DR: Pregnant women bearing the G54D MBL allele have a greater risk for developing GDM and having heavier infants, and this association remained significant when the presence of both mutated alleles was considered.
Adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein as a determinant of insulin sensitivity in morbid-obese women.
I. Simón,Xavier Escoté,Nuria Vilarrasa,José Manuel Gómez,José Manuel Fernández-Real,Ana Megia,Cristina Gutierrez,Lluis Gallart,Carles Masdevall,Joan Vendrell +9 more
TL;DR: In morbid‐obese women, plasma A‐FABP concentrations were dramatically reduced after gastric bypass surgery, and after weight loss this protein contributed to HOMA‐IR index independently of proinflammatory/antinflammatory cytokine profile.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors employed two data-driven whole-brain approaches based on the phase synchronization of blood-oxygen-level-dependent signals to analyze resting-state fMRI data from 620 subjects divided into two groups (middle-age group (n = 310); age range, 50-64 years versus older group(n = 210); age ranges, 65-91 years).

Weight loss in prepubertal obese children is associated with a decrease in adipocyte fatty-acid-binding protein without changes in lipocalin-2: a 2-year longitudinal study
Raquel Corripio,José Miguel González-Clemente,Jacobo Perez-Sanchez,Silvia Näf,Lluis Gallart,Ramon Nosas,Joan Vendrell,Assumpta Caixàs +7 more
TL;DR: Prepubertal obese children show high plasma lipocalin-2 and A-FABP levels, but only A-fABP is influenced by weight loss, while lipocal in-2 was not modified by any of these variables.
