Longer time after bariatric surgery and sedentary leisure modify anthropometric parameters, body composition and sarcopenic obesity markers in women

Revista Brasileira de Atividade Física e Saúde, 2017
Sarcopenic Obesity is known as a decrease in the quantity and quality of the skeletal muscle mass and increase in fat mass. It can be measured by the residual appendicular skeletal muscle mass (Ap SMM) based on the difference between actual and predicted

A Comparison of Vertical Ground Reaction Forces in Single-leg Jump Take-offs and Double-leg Jump Take-offs in Indoor Collegiate Volleyball Players [PDF]

, 2020
The purpose of this study was to determine if differences in vertical ground reaction forces (vGRFs) exist between single-leg take-off approaches (SL) and double-leg take-off approaches (DL) and if sex or positional differences existed in vGRFs in SL- or

Lifestyle Behaviors and Cardiotoxic Treatment Risks in Adult Childhood Cancer Survivors

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Higher doses of anthracyclines and heart‐relevant radiotherapy increase cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. This study assessed CVD and CVD risk factors among adult childhood cancer survivors (CCSs) across cardiotoxic treatment risk groups and examined associations between lifestyle behaviors and treatment risks.

Prenatal programming of postnatal obesity: fetal nutrition and the regulation of leptin synthesis and secretion before birth [PDF]

, 2004
Exposure to either an increased or decreased level of intrauterine nutrition can result in an increase in adiposity and in circulating leptin concentrations in later life.

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

Pediatric 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.

Replacing body mass index with relative fat mass to accurately estimate adiposity

Nature Reviews Endocrinology
Body mass index (BMI), as its name indicates, is a marker of total body mass and not a specific marker of adipose tissue mass. Here, we position relative fat mass (RFM) as an ideal alternative to BMI by highlighting the superior performance of RFM in assessing cardiometabolic risk.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)
