Dietary fat and total energy intake modifies the association of genetic profile risk score on obesity: evidence from 48 170 UK Biobank participants [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Obesity is a multifactorial condition influenced by both genetics and lifestyle. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the association between a validated genetic profile risk score for obesity (GPRS-obesity) and body mass index ...

Association between adiposity and systemic atherosclerosis: a protocol of a cross-sectional autopsy study. [PDF]

, 2016
IntroductionAdiposity has been associated with atherosclerosis in clinical studies. However, few autopsy studies have investigated this association, and they had only examined the coronary artery disease. Moreover, most studies had small sample sizes and

Sleep quality and weight-adjusted waist index in US adults: a cross-sectional study from NHANES 2015–2020

Annals of Medicine
Background Sleep quality, independent of sleep duration, has been linked to central obesity. However, prior findings are inconsistent, likely due to reliance on body mass index and waist circumference, which inadequately capture abdominal fat. The weight-

Trajectories of body mass index and waist circumference in four Peruvian settings at different level of urbanisation: the CRONICAS Cohort Study [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND: Studies have reported the incidence/risk of becoming obese, but few have described the trajectories of body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) over time, especially in low/middle-income countries.

Self‐Powered Flexible Triboelectric‐Gated Ion‐Gel Transistor for Neuromorphic Tactile Sensing and Human Activity Recognition

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A fully flexible ion‐gel‐gated graphene‐channel transistor driven by a triboelectric nanogenerator enables self‐powered tactile sensing and synaptic learning. Mimicking spike‐rate‐dependent plasticity, the device exhibits frequency‐selective potentiation and depression, supporting rate‐coded neuromorphic computation even under flex.

Is the BMI a Relic of the Past? [PDF]

, 2014
The most widely used measure of adiposity is to express weight adjusted for height using the body mass index (BMI). However, its limitations such as its inability to distinguish muscle weight from fat weight are well known, leading public health ...

Managing the risk of iatrogenic transmission of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in the UK.

, 2014
BACKGROUND: With the emergence of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) and variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) in the UK, there is concern about iatrogenic transmission, and the approach to managing this risk is unique.

Dairy foods and dairy protein consumption is inversely related to markers of adiposity in obese men and women [PDF]

, 2013
A number of intervention studies have reported that the prevalence of obesity may be in part inversely related to dairy food consumption while others report no association.
