Cambridge Journals Online - Abstract
journals.cambridge.org — “The rapid increase in the incidence of chronic non-communicable diseases over the past two decades cannot be explained solely by genetic and adult lifestyle factors. There is now considerable evidence that the fetal and early postnatal environment also strongly influences the risk of developing such diseases in later life. Human studies have shown that low birth weight is associated with an increased risk of CVD, type II diabetes, obesity and hypertension, although recent studies have shown that” View full resource at journals.cambridge.org

Is perfume making us fat? - Chew On This - MiamiHerald.com
miamiherald.com — “The causes of obesity are many. The most significant are overeating, genetics and inactivity, heightened by an abundance of sedentary activities such as television viewing, video gaming and computer use. Some researchers are delving into environmental factors that could be minor but controllable contributors to this growing public health issue.” View full resource at miamiherald.com

BMC Pediatrics | Abstract | Resting heart rate as predictor of metabolic dysfunctions in obese children and adolescents
biomedcentral.com — “Recent studies have identified that a higher resting heart rate (RHR) is associated with elevated blood pressure, independent of body fatness, age and ethnicity. However, it is still unclear whether RHR can also be applied as a screening for other risk factors, such as hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia. Thus, the purpose of the presented study was to analyze the association between RHR, lipid profile and fasting glucose in obese children and adolescents.” View full resource at biomedcentral.com

Depressive Symptoms in a General Population: Associations with Obesity, Inflammation, and Blood Pressure
hindawi.com — “To determine whether obesity, inflammation, or conventional risk factors are related to depressive symptoms (DeprSy) in the general population. Responses to 3 questions served to assess sense of depression. Body mass index (BMI), C-reactive protein (CRP), and other epidemiologic data of participants were available. In 1940, individuals who consulted a psychiatrist in the preceding year, or felt depressed (together DeprSy), 248 were female. Logistic regressions for adjusted associations of BMI wi” View full resource at hindawi.com

Arthritis Research & Therapy | Abstract | Can anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody negative RA be subdivided into clinical subphenotypes?
arthritis-research.com — “Studies investigating genetic risk factors for susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) studied anti-citrullinated peptide antibody (CCP)-positive RA more frequently than anti-CCP-negative RA. One of the reasons for this is the perception that anti-CCP negative RA may include patients that fulfilled criteria for RA but belong to a wide range of diagnoses. We aimed to evaluate the validity of this notion and explored whether clinical subphenotypes can be discerned within anti-CCP-negative RA.” View full resource at arthritis-research.com

Whether sweating capacity is impacted in obese subjects with impaired GH secretion have not previously been investigated. The main objective was to investigate sweat secretion rate and the GH-IGF-I axis in obese subjects before and after weight loss. Sixteen severely obese women (BMI, 40.6 ± 1.1?kg/m2) were investigated before and after a diet-induced weight loss. Sixteen age-matched nonobese women served as controls.
