Correlates of changes in BMI of children from the Azores islands [PDF]

, 2011
Objective: To model changes in body mass index (BMI), including its stability, and to investigate the association between physical activity, 1-mile run/walk and levels of gross motor coordination and BMI during 5 consecutive years.

Association of a body mass index genetic risk score with growth throughout childhood and adolescence.

PLoS ONE, 2013
BackgroundWhile the number of established genetic variants associated with adult body mass index (BMI) is growing, the relationships between these variants and growth during childhood are yet to be fully characterised. We examined the association between

The use and interpretation of anthropometric measures in cancer epidemiology: A perspective from the world cancer research fund international continuous update project [PDF]

, 2016
Anthropometric measures relating to body size, weight and composition are increasingly being associated with cancer risk and progression. Whilst practical in epidemiologic research, where population-level associations with disease are revealed, it is ...

Associations of routine breakfast and napping habits with early adiposity rebound by age 3 years: a population-based cohort study in Japan [PDF]

Clinical and Experimental Pediatrics
Background Early adiposity rebound (AR) is a key predictor of later obesity and metabolic risk, yet modifiable factors related to early AR remain understudied in large populations.

Metabolic and Microvascular Risk Factors Associated With Brain Health in Type 1 Diabetes

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examined relationships between metabolic factors, microvascular complications, and brain health in adults with type 1 diabetes. Fifty‐one adults were assessed for metabolic risk factors, microvascular complications, and cognitive function, with a subset completing brain MRI.

3D (Bio) Printing Combined Fiber Fabrication Methods for Tissue Engineering Applications: Possibilities and Limitations

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Transition patterns of weight status: A cohort study of Chinese school-age children

Frontiers in Public Health, 2022
BackgroundChildhood overweight and obesity are increasing public concerns. However, little is known about the transition patterns of childhood weight status, especially in developing countries.

Genetic and epigenetic catalysts in early-life programming of adult cardiometabolic disorders [PDF]

, 2014
Evidence has emerged across the past few decades that the lifetime risk of developing morbidities like type 2 diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease may be influenced by exposures that occur in utero and in childhood.

Does the age at adiposity rebound reflect a critical period? [PDF]

Pediatric Obesity, 2018
In 1984, Rolland-Cachera et al. showed that the age at adiposity rebound (AR) was associated with later weight status, whereby an early AR confers greater risk of obesity. This growth pattern is particularly associated with metabolic risk, likely influenced by early environmental factors preceding the AR.

In Situ 3D Bioprinting: Impact of Cross‐Linking on the Adhesive Properties of Hydrogels

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In situ 3D bioprinting enables the direct deposition of cell‐laden, adhesive biomaterials for on‐site tissue regeneration. This review provides a comprehensive overview of how cross‐linking influences the bioadhesive properties of hydrogels used in 3D bioprinting, highlighting cross‐linking triggers, bioadhesion mechanisms, polymer interpenetration ...
