How Does Obesity Affect Bone Age and Predicted Adult Height?

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims The objectives were to (1) evaluate the degree of bone age advancement as obesity increases and (2) determine if the bone age predicted adult height (BAPH) is different from mid‐parental target height (MPTH) in children and adolescents with obesity.

Cardiometabolic Protein Profile Changes During Gender‐Affirming Hormone Therapy: A Prospective Clinical Study

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk is elevated in transgender individuals during gender‐affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) with expected different mechanisms between T‐ and E2‐based GAHT. We investigated prospective changes in cardiometabolic proteins relating to complement, inflammation, and transport during GAHT.

Association of liver enzymes and lipid profile with body fat distribution in Mexican university students

Archivos Latinoamericanos de Nutrición
Introduction: Evidence suggests that the type of adipose tissue distribution contributes to a higher risk of developing cardiovascular diseases. It has been observed that visceral adipose tissue is highly lipolytic, and lipid distribution is primarily ...

Testosterone Replacement Therapy in Adolescents and Young Adults With Prader‐Willi Syndrome: Efficacy and Effects on Behaviour

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Context Hypogonadism in Prader‐Willi syndrome (PWS) is associated with decreased bone mineral density (BMD) in male adolescents and adults. Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) improves BMD and sexual maturation, but TRT could aggravate pre‐existing challenging behaviour in male patients with PWS.

High protein consumption in trained women: bad to the bone?

Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, 2018
Background It has been posited that the consumption of extra protein (> 0.8 g/kg/d) may be deleterious to bone mineral content. However, there is no direct evidence to show that consuming a high-protein diet results in a demineralization of the skeleton.
