Serum levels of FGF21 are reduced and negatively correlated with adiponectin in children with Prader-Willi syndrome
Background/Aims FGF21 (fibroblast growth factor 21) is a novel metabolic regulator that has beneficial effects on glucose homeostasis and insulin sensitivity. In human obesity, serum FGF21 level was increased. The aims of this study were comparing fasting serum levels of FGF21 in Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) and obese control children and finding correlations these levels with insulin sensitivit...

PWS is a complex disorder with multiple disabilities, and the main defect is found in the hypothalamus.

متن کاملGrowth Hormone Therapy in Adults with Prader-Willi Syndrome
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is characterized by hyperphagia, obesity if food intake is not strictly controlled, abnormal body composition with decreased lean body mass and increased fat mass, decreased basal metabolic rate, short stature, low muscle tone, cognitive disability, and hypogonadism. In addition to improvements in linear growth, the benefits of growth hormone therapy on body composit...
متن کاملErratum: Postprandial metabolism in adults with prader-willi syndrome.
OBJECTIVE Individuals with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) are commonly restricted to 60-75% of height-appropriate calorie intake because they rapidly become obese on a normal diet. This study measured changes in energy expenditure, glucose and lipid homeostasis, and metabolic flexibility in response to a meal in PWS adults. METHODS 11 adults with PWS were compared with 12 adiposity-matched and 1...
متن کاملUnderwater Weighing Familiarization Program for Adults with Prader-Willi Syndrome.
The purpose of the project was to evaluate an underwater weighing (UWW) and residual lung volume (RV) familiarization program developed for adults with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS). UWW was conducted on 15 adults (10 men, 5 women) with PWS following a UWW familiarization program. Repeated measures ANOVA revealed no difference in percent body fat derived from UWW over the four sessions, F(3, 27) ...
