Associations of the infancy body mass index peak with anthropometry and cardiometabolic risk in Mexican adolescents

open access: yesAnnals of Human Biology, 2018
Background: Early-life growth dynamics are associated with future health. Little is known regarding timing and magnitude of the infancy body mass index (BMI) peak with adiposity and metabolic biomarkers during adolescence. Aim: To examine associations of

Effect of oral glucose administration on rebound growth hormone release in normal and obese women: the role of adiposity, insulin sensitivity and ghrelin. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Metabolic substrates and nutritional status play a major role in growth hormone (GH) secretion. Uncovering the mechanisms involved in GH secretion following oral glucose (OG) administration in normal and obese patients is a pending issue.The aim of this ...

The metabolic inter-relationships between changes in waist circumference, triglycerides, insulin sensitivity and small, dense low-density lipoprotein particles with acute weight loss in clinically obese children and adolescents. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
OBJECTIVE: Small, dense low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles are highly atherogenic and strongly associated with obesity-related dyslipidemia. The metabolic inter-relationships between weight loss induced changes in waist circumference, triglycerides,

Decrease in regional body fat after long-term high-intensity interval training

open access: yesJournal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2017
High-intensity interval training (HIIT) has recently received much attention as a new option for aerobic training. Despite its smaller time requirement, HIIT has been reported to have a greater effect than continuous moderate-intensity training on fat ...

It takes two to tango: NAD+ and sirtuins in aging/longevity control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The coupling of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) breakdown and protein deacylation is a unique feature of the family of proteins called ‘sirtuins.’ This intimate connection between NAD+ and sirtuins has an ancient origin and provides a ...

The Effect of a Maternal Mediterranean Diet in Pregnancy on Insulin Resistance is Moderated by Maternal Negative Affect. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
There is inconsistent evidence that healthy dietary interventions can effectively mitigate the risk of adverse outcomes associated with elevated insulin resistance in pregnancy, suggesting that other moderating factors may be at play.

Bone size and bone strength are increased in obese male adolescents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Context: Controversy exists on the effect of obesity on bone development during puberty. Objective: Our objective was to determine differences in volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) and bone geometry in male obese adolescents (ObAs) in overlap with ...
