Microscopic and molecular aspects of skeletal muscle alterations in cerebral palsy

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Cerebral palsy, caused by non‐progressive brain injury, is frequently accompanied by skeletal muscle alterations. This review synthesizes current evidence from muscle biopsy studies, revealing cellular and molecular adaptations in muscle tissue. Abstract Cerebral palsy (CP), the most prevalent childhood‐onset motor disability, frequently entails ...

Relation of BMI to a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry measure of fatness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is a valid technique for measuring the fat, bone and lean (muscle, organs and water) masses of the body. We evaluated relationships of BMI (kg/m2) with independent measurements of fat and lean masses using DXA in ...

Body composition and body fat distribution are related to cardiac autonomic control in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Heart rate recovery (HRR), a cardiac autonomic control marker, was shown to be related to body composition (BC), yet this was not tested in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients.

Ultrasound and MRI abdominal fat distribution and its associations with metabolic conditions in adults with abdominal obesity

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims To evaluate the accuracy of abdominal fat distribution of subcutaneous (SAT) and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) assessed by ultrasound (US) compared to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), as the gold standard technique. Additionally, to assess the association between abdominal fat distribution measured by US and metabolic conditions in ...

Body Adiposity Index as a Predictor of Body Fat in an Oldest Old and Independent Cohort of Brazilian Older Adults [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Geriatric Medicine and Research
Background Anthropometry and body mass index (BMI) do not assess body composition or its distribution in older adults; thus, individuals may have different fat percentages but similar BMI values.

Metformin attenuates metabolic insulin sensitivity and insulin‐stimulated carbohydrate oxidation after high‐intensity exercise training in adults at risk for metabolic syndrome

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Mixed evidence exists on whether metformin adds to or attenuates the insulin‐sensitising effects of exercise. To date, no studies have tested whether metformin differentially impacts exercise training intensity–mediated insulin sensitivity.

Evaluating the Relationships between Body Mass Index, Weight, and Bone Mineral Density in Men Using Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry

open access: yesمجله دانشکده پزشکی اصفهان, 2013
Background: Body mass index (BMI) is used for the prediction and assessment of bone mineral density (BMD). BMD measurements are useful in the evaluation of the risk of osteoporotic fractures, diagnosis of osteoporosis, and efficient treatment. Methods:
