Association between insulin resistance, lean mass and muscle torque/force in proximal versus distal body parts in healthy young men [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Objectives:The purpose of this study was to investigate whether there is already an association of insulin resistance (IR) with muscle mass and –force/torque in an adult population and whether this relationship is the same in distal and proximal body ...

Criteria for Clinically Relevant Weakness and Low Lean Mass and Their Longitudinal Association With Incident Mobility Impairment and Mortality: The Foundation for the National Institutes of Health (FNIH) Sarcopenia Project [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background. This analysis sought to determine the associations of the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health Sarcopenia Project criteria for weakness and low lean mass with likelihood for mobility impairment (gait speed ≤ 0.8 m/s) and mortality.

Safety and Efficacy of Anticoagulation Therapy in Paediatric Patients With Solid Tumours or Lymphomas at Risk of Thrombocytopenia: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with solid tumours or lymphomas have an increased risk of thromboembolism (TE) and thrombocytopenia. Evidence‐based strategies for anticoagulation therapy (ACT) for patients with thrombocytopenia are limited. We examined the impact of thrombocytopenia on ACT administration and bleeding incidence in children with solid ...

Transplantation of gut microbiota from old mice into young healthy mice reduces lean mass but not bone mass

open access: yesGut Microbes, 2023
Aging is associated with low bone and lean mass as well as alterations in the gut microbiota (GM). In this study, we determined whether the reduced bone mass and relative lean mass observed in old mice could be transferred to healthy young mice by GM ...

Effects of elastic band exercise on lean mass and physical capacity in older women with sarcopenic obesity: A randomized controlled trial

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Sarcopenia is associated with loss of muscle mass as well as an increased risk of physical disability in elderly people. This study was aimed to investigate the effect of elastic band resistance training (ERT) on muscle mass and physical function in ...

Bone Mass, Lean Mass, and Fat Mass: Same Genes or Same Environments? [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Epidemiology, 1998
The contributions of genetic and environmental factors to the association among bone mineral density (BMD), lean mass, and fat mass were assessed in the Sydney Twin Study of Osteoporosis (Australia), 1995-1996, in 57 monozygotic and 55 dizygotic female twin pairs of Caucasian background, aged 52.8 (standard deviation, 13) years.

Inhibition of food intake in obese subjects by peptide YY3-36 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Background: The gut hormone fragment peptide YY3-36 (PYY) reduces appetite and food intake when infused into subjects of normal weight. In common with the adipocyte hormone leptin, PYY reduces food intake by modulating appetite circuits in the ...

Changes in Body Composition in Children and Young People Undergoing Treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ongoing evidence indicates increased risk of sarcopenic obesity among children and young people (CYP) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), often beginning early in treatment, persisting into survivorship. This review evaluates current literature on body composition in CYP with ALL during and after treatment.

Fat-free/lean body mass in children with insulin resistance or metabolic syndrome: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesBMC Pediatrics, 2022
Background Lean / Fat Free Body Mass (LBM) is metabolically involved in active processes such as resting energy expenditure, glucose uptake, and myokine secretion. Nonetheless, its association with insulin sensitivity / resistance / glucose tolerance and

Ancient origins of low lean mass among South Asians and implications for modern type 2 diabetes susceptibility

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Living South Asians have low lean tissue mass relative to height, which contributes to their elevated type 2 diabetes susceptibility, particularly when accompanied by obesity. While ongoing lifestyle transitions account for rising obesity, the origins of
