Developmental origins of cardiometabolic diseases have been related to maternal nutritional conditions. In this context, the rising incidence of arterial hypertension, diabetes type II, and dyslipidemia has been attributed to genetic programming. Besides, environmental conditions during perinatal development such as maternal undernutrition or overnutrition can program changes in the integration...

Introduction: Low socio-economic status is one of the major causes malnutrition. However, several studies students at private elementary schools, which are often considered to have a good status, show that malnutrition (both under and overnutrition) quite high as measured based on BAZ (BMI-for-aged-Z-score) indicator. Method: This cross-sectional design study began in March 2020 finish November...

The study aimed to determine trend of Indonesian local food consumption and its association with body mass index (BMI) among female university students. It was cross-sectional that involved 217 students (18-25 years old) in April-May 2021 using conventional sampling by a self-administered online questionnaire Malang City, East Java, Indonesia. Sociodemographic dietary habits were collected alon...

On day 1, all litters arestandardized 9 pups per dam on 3 after birth, were adjusted perdam small group (SL) NL remained with animals. At 70 days ofage, animals separated into 2 ...

Introduction: Dengue infection is still posed a significant medical challenge for pediatric population in developing countries. However, increased prevalence of overweight and obesity among children those countries the possibility coexistence these conditions. their interaction under investigated. Therefore, this study was aimed to dynamic sVCAM-1 level as known predictor severity dengue with o...

Metabolic disorders have seen an increased prevalence in recent years in developed as well as developing countries. While it is clear lifestyle choices and habits have contributed to this epidemic, mounting evidence suggests the nutritional milieu during critical stages of development in early life can "program" individuals to develop the metabolic syndrome later in life. Extensive epidemiologi...

To investigate further the mechanisms of developmental programming, we analysed the effects of maternal overnutrition and of postnatal high-fat feeding on adipose tissue metabolism in the offspring. Postnatal changes in serum adiponectin, leptin and TAG [triacylglycerol (triglyceride)] levels, adipose tissue TAGs, fatty acids and enzyme activities were determined in offspring of cafeteria-diet-...
