Timing of Adiposity Rebound and Determinants of Early Adiposity Rebound in Korean Infants and Children Based on Data from the National Health Insurance Service [PDF]

Nutrients, 2022
Adiposity rebound (AR) is defined as the second rise in the body mass index (BMI) usually occurring in early childhood. This study aimed to investigate the timing of AR and the factors determining early AR (EAR) by tracking BMI patterns using large-scale

Age at adiposity rebound is associated with fat mass in young adult males-the GOOD study. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
ObjectiveAge at adiposity rebound (AR) is associated with obesity and Type 2 Diabetes in adults. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of age at AR in adult fat mass, fat distribution and pubertal timing for a Swedish cohort.Patients ...

Children grow and horses race: is the adiposity rebound a critical period for later obesity?

BMC Pediatrics, 2004
Background The adiposity rebound is the second rise in body mass index that occurs between 3 and 7 years. An early age at adiposity rebound is known to be a risk factor for later obesity.

Tracking of body adiposity indicators from childhood to adolescence: Mediation by BMI. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Our aim was to verify the tracking of body adiposity indicators from childhood to adolescence and analyze the mediation effects of BMI on the stability of body adiposity. Our sample was composed by 375 children (197 boys).

Association between common variation at the FTO locus and changes in body mass index from infancy to late childhood: the complex nature of genetic association through growth and development. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2011
An age-dependent association between variation at the FTO locus and BMI in children has been suggested. We meta-analyzed associations between the FTO locus (rs9939609) and BMI in samples, aged from early infancy to 13 years, from 8 cohorts of European ...

Childhood body mass index trajectories: modeling, characterizing, pairwise correlations and socio-demographic predictors of trajectory characteristics [PDF]

BMC Medical Research Methodology, 2012
Background Modeling childhood body mass index (BMI) trajectories, versus estimating change in BMI between specific ages, may improve prediction of later body-size-related outcomes.

PLoS ONE, 2020
PurposeWe analyzed the nationwide longitudinal data to explore body mass index (BMI) growth trajectories and the time of adiposity rebound (AR).MethodsPersonal data of 84,005 subjects born between 2008 and 2012 were obtained from infant health check-ups ...

How has child growth around adiposity rebound altered in Scotland since 1990 and what are the risk factors for weight gain using the Growing Up in Scotland birth cohort 1? [PDF]

BMC Public Health, 2016
Background Adiposity rebound is considered critical to the development of overweight and obesity. The purpose of this study was to investigate how growth has changed in comparison to the UK 1990 BMI growth reference curves between the ages 4–8 years and ...

Modeling rebound bone loss following denosumab discontinuation and sequential zoledronate therapy in TgRANKL osteoporotic mice [PDF]

Frontiers in Endocrinology
BackgroundReceptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) plays a central role in regulating osteoclast formation and bone resorption, while its inhibition by the monoclonal antibody denosumab serves as an effective antiresorptive treatment for ...
