Relation of central hemodynamics to obesity and body fat distribution.
Central obesity increases the risk for cardiovascular disease, but little is known about its hemodynamic effects. The aims were to investigate the influence of obesity (as defined by body mass index) and abdominal fat accumulation (as defined by the waist/hip ratio) on hemodynamics at rest and during mental stress. Invasive hemodynamic studies were performed in 20 healthy, normotensive young me...
متن کاملFTO Gene Associated Fatness in Relation to Body Fat Distribution and Metabolic Traits throughout a Broad Range of Fatness
BACKGROUND A common single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of FTO (rs9939609, T/A) is associated with total body fatness. We investigated the association of this SNP with abdominal and peripheral fatness and obesity-related metabolic traits in middle-aged men through a broad range of fatness present already in adolescence. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Obese young Danish men (n = 753, BMI > or...
متن کاملPubertal alterations in growth and body composition. V. Energy expenditure, adiposity, and fat distribution.
We determined whether activity energy expenditure (AEE, from doubly labeled water and indirect calorimetry) or physical activity [7-day physical activity recall (PAR)] was more related to adiposity and the validity of PAR estimated total energy expenditure (TEE(PAR)) in prepubertal and pubertal boys (n = 14 and 15) and girls (n = 13 and 18). AEE, but not physical activity hours, was inversely r...
متن کاملHigh protein meals may benefit fat oxidation and energy expenditure in individuals with higher body fat
Aim: Fat oxidation is impaired in obesity. The aim of this study was to determine if fat oxidation, seen in a high protein meal response, was influenced by body composition. Methods: Subjects were provided with control (14% protein, glycemic index, GI 65), high protein high GI (33% protein, GI 74), and high protein low GI (35% protein, GI 45) meals. Substrate oxidation and energy expenditure we...
متن کاملPredicting Changes of Body Weight, Body Fat, Energy Expenditure and Metabolic Fuel Selection in C57BL/6 Mice
The mouse is an important model organism for investigating the molecular mechanisms of body weight regulation, but a quantitative understanding of mouse energy metabolism remains lacking. Therefore, we created a mathematical model of mouse energy metabolism to predict dynamic changes of body weight, body fat, energy expenditure, and metabolic fuel selection. Based on the principle of energy bal...
