    Additional file 2: Figure S1. The line graph of the glucose tolerance test (0–3 h). Data were mean ± SD, LSI: lifestyle intervention, BBR plus LSI: berberine treatment plus lifestyle intervention. *P < 0.05 when comparing before and after berberine plus lifestyle intervention treatment, #P < 0.05 when comparing before and after lifestyle intervention alone treatment

    <p>In the estimation group, AUROC = 0.79 (0.77, 0.81),cut-off = -0.79, Specificity = 0.72, Sensitivity = 0.71. In the internal Chinese validation group, AUROC = 0.76 (0.73, 0.78), cut-off = -0.79, Specificity = 0.71, Sensitivity = 0.69. In the Finnish external validation group, AUROC = 0.74 (0.69, 0.80), cut-off = 0.68, Specificity = 0.62, Sensitivity = 0.79.</p

    Bariatric surgery (BS), recognized as the most effective intervention for morbid obesity and associated metabolic comorbidities, encompasses both weight loss-dependent and weight loss-independent mechanisms to exert its metabolic benefits. In this study, we employed plasma proteomics technology, a recently developed mass spectrometric approach, to quantitatively assess 632 circulating proteins in a longitudinal cohort of 9 individuals who underwent sleeve gastrectomy (SG). Through time series clustering and Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis, we observed that complement activation, proteolysis, and negative regulation of triglyceride catabolic process were the primary biological processes enriched in down-regulated proteins. Conversely, up-regulated differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were significantly associated with negative regulation of peptidase activity, fibrinolysis, keratinocyte migration, and acute-phase response. Notably, we identified seven proteins (ApoD, BCHE, CNDP1, AFM, ITIH3, SERPINF1, FCN3) that demonstrated significant alterations at 1-, 3-, and 6-month intervals post SG, compared to baseline. These proteins play essential roles in metabolism, immune and inflammatory responses, as well as oxidative stress. Consequently, they hold promising potential as therapeutic targets for combating obesity and its associated comorbidities.</p
