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 ...

Early childhood weight gain and alanine aminotransferase at age 8: an adjunct study of the Japan Environment and Children’s Study [PDF]
BMC MedicineBackground The critical age window during which early-life adiposity impacts liver health remains unclear. This study aimed to identify the timing of adiposity gain associated with elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels in 8-year-old children ...

The 5:2 diet induces male-specific weight loss and sex-independent enhancement of lipid storage in mice via activation of GHSR [PDF]
Frontiers in NutritionIntroductionDespite its popularity and reported benefits in humans, preclinical characterization of the broader physiological impact of the 5:2 diet and potential mechanisms of action are lacking.MethodsTo address this deficit, male and female wild-type (

Timing of Adiposity Rebound and Adiposity in Adolescence [PDF]
PEDIATRICS, 2014 To investigate associations between timing of adiposity rebound (AR; the period in childhood where BMI begins to increase from its nadir) and adiposity (BMI, fat mass) at age 15 years in the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC).The sample consisted of 546 children with AR derived in childhood and BMI and fat mass index (FMI; fat ...

Adiposity rebound is misclassified by BMI rebound [PDF]
European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2013 Adiposity rebound (AR) is defined as the nadir or the inflexion point of body mass index (BMI) percentiles between the age of 3 and 7 years. An early rebound is seen as a risk of obesity and, thus, AR is considered as a suitable time period for prevention. As BMI does not reflect body composition, we aimed to examine the rebounds of fat mass index (FMI)

Adiposity rebound in very-low-birth-weight infants [PDF]
Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2021 Abstract Objectives Adiposity rebound (AR) refers to an increase in body mass index (BMI) after a nadir. Early AR, in which AR occurs earlier than five years old, is a risk factor for future obesity and metabolic syndrome, but has not been widely studied in very-low-birth-weight infants (VLBWIs).

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).
