Obesity and cardiovascular diseases: implications regarding fitness, fatness, and severity in the obesity paradox.
Obesity has been increasing in epidemic proportions, with a disproportionately higher increase in morbid or class III obesity, and obesity adversely affects cardiovascular (CV) hemodynamics, structure, and function, as well as increases the prevalence of most CV diseases. Progressive declines in physical activity over 5 decades have occurred and have primarily caused the obesity epidemic. Despi...
متن کاملImportance of Both Fatness and Aerobic Fitness on Metabolic Syndrome Risk in Japanese Children
Associations between body mass index (BMI), peak oxygen consumption (VO(2peak)), and metabolic syndrome (MetS) risk factors have not been adequately studied in Japanese children. Here the relationships between these parameters and the threshold aerobic fitness level necessary for low MetS risk were determined. The participants (299 children; 140 boys and 159 girls, aged 9.1 ± 0.3 years) were di...
متن کاملArterial stiffness, fatness, and physical fitness: ready for intervention in childhood and across the life course?
Arterial distensibility and its converse stiffness have come of age as physiological concepts1 and now as a target for intervention. The central hypothesis sustained so far is that an individual’s “arterial stiffness” measured as aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV) is a convenient, integrated index of vascular pathology over a person’s life course, more precise and reliable than other risk factors...
متن کاملFatness and fitness: exposing the logic of evolutionary explanations for obesity.
To explore the logic of evolutionary explanations of obesity we modelled food consumption in an animal that minimizes mortality (starvation plus predation) by switching between activities that differ in energy gain and predation. We show that if switching does not incur extra predation risk, the animal should have a single threshold level of reserves above which it performs the safe activity an...
متن کاملRelative Importance in English and Persian: Thematization or Tonic Prominence?
There are two common ways to assign relative importance in spoken language: tonic prominence and thematization. The former is expressing the main points of information units in speech (Halliday, 1994), and the latter is putting an element at the beginning of a clause. This study explores how relative importance is realized in English and Persian. It also investigates how advanced Persian learne...
