Adiposity rebound and body mass index in Japanese patients with congenital hypothyroidism
The long-term prognosis of congenital hypothyroidism (CH) has become apparent since the introduction of newborn screening programs; however, the risk of obesity in patients with CH remains unclear. Early adiposity rebound (AR) is one of the predictors of obesity in adults.

Potential selection effects when estimating associations between the infancy peak or adiposity rebound and later body mass index in children [PDF]
This study aims to evaluate a potential selection effect caused by exclusion of children with non-identifiable infancy peak (IP) and adiposity rebound (AR) when estimating associations between age and body mass index (BMI) at IP and AR and later weight status.In 4744 children with at least 4 repeated measurements of height and weight in the age ...

Recovery of the 20 Hz Rebound to Tactile and Proprioceptive Stimulation after Stroke
Sensorimotor integration is closely linked to changes in motor-cortical excitability, observable in the modulation of the 20 Hz rhythm. After somatosensory stimulation, the rhythm transiently increases as a rebound that reflects motor-cortex inhibition ...
