Different spexin level in obese vs normal weight children and its relationship with obesity related risk factors.

Nutrition, metabolism, and cardiovascular diseases : NMCD
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Spexin (SPX) is a novel peptide recently discovered as an important regulatory adipokine in obesity and related metabolic diseases. The aim of the current study was to determine the potential role of Circulating levels of SPX in ...

Increased lipocalin-2 vs reduced oxytocin in relation with adiposity, atherogenicity and hematological indices in metabolic syndrome patients with and without prediabetes.

Bratislavske lekarske listy
OBJECTIVES: The neuropeptide hormone- Oxytocin (OXT) and glycoprotein Lipocalin-2 (LCN-2) are strongly associated with cardiometabolic risks of insulin resistance in metabolic syndrome (MetS) and prediabetes (preDM).

Effect of a short-term physical activity intervention on liver fat content in obese children.

Applied physiology, nutrition, and metabolism = Physiologie appliquee, nutrition et metabolisme
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is the most common chronic liver disease and can present with advanced fibrosis or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a 7-day intense physical activity interventio...

Adiponectin levels may help assess the clinical repercussions of obesity irrespective of body mass index.

Hormones (Athens, Greece)
OBJECTIVE: Adiponectin is the major product of adipose tissue. The aim of this study was to associate adiponectin levels with adipose tissue and metabolic indices.

High Amounts of Sitting, Low Cardiorespiratory Fitness, and Low Physical Activity Levels: 3 Key Ingredients in the Recipe for Influencing Metabolic Syndrome Prevalence.

American journal of health promotion : AJHP
PURPOSE: Limited research has evaluated the independent and additive associations of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), sedentary behavior (SB), and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) with metabolic syndrome, which was the purpose of this st...

Automated body composition analysis of clinically acquired computed tomography scans using neural networks.

Clinical nutrition (Edinburgh, Scotland)
BACKGROUND & AIMS: The quantity and quality of skeletal muscle and adipose tissue is an important prognostic factor for clinical outcomes across several illnesses. Clinically acquired computed tomography (CT) scans are commonly used for quantificatio...

Novel artificial neural network and linear regression based equation for estimating visceral adipose tissue volume.

Clinical nutrition (Edinburgh, Scotland)
BACKGROUND: There is a growing interest in fast and reliable assessment of abdominal visceral adipose tissue (VAT) volume for risk stratification of metabolic disorders. However, imaging based measurement of VAT is costly and limited by scanner avail...

The Prediction of Human Abdominal Adiposity Based on the Combination of a Particle Swarm Algorithm and Support Vector Machine.

International journal of environmental research and public health
: Abdominal adiposity is an important risk factor of chronic cardiovascular diseases, thus the prediction of abdominal adiposity and obesity can reduce the risks of contracting such diseases. However, the current prediction models display low accurac...

Importance of general adiposity, visceral adiposity and vital signs in predicting blood biomarkers using machine learning.

International journal of clinical practice
INTRODUCTION: Blood biomarkers are measured for their ability to characterise physiological and disease states. Much is known about linear relations between blood biomarker concentrations and individual vital signs or adiposity indexes (eg, BMI). Com...
