Quantitative approaches to energy and glucose homeostasis: machine learning and modelling for precision understanding and prediction.

Journal of the Royal Society, Interface
Obesity is a major global public health problem. Understanding how energy homeostasis is regulated, and can become dysregulated, is crucial for developing new treatments for obesity. Detailed recording of individual behaviour and new imaging modaliti...

Is There Any Relationship between Plasma 25-Hydroxyvitamin D₃, Adipokine Profiles and Excessive Body Weight in Type 2 Diabetic Patients?

International journal of environmental research and public health
A growing interest in the role of vitamin D in metabolic diseases led us to study the relationships between 25-hydroxyvitamin D₃ (25(OH)D₃) and the profiles of selected adipokines in type 2 diabetic (T2DM) patients. The study comprised 92 type 2 diab...

Phase Relationship between DLMO and Sleep Onset and the Risk of Metabolic Disease among Normal Weight and Overweight/Obese Adults.

Journal of biological rhythms
Circadian misalignment is hypothesized to contribute to increased diabetes and obesity among shift workers and individuals with late sleep timing. Accordingly, the goal of our study was to identify-among normal and overweight/obese adults-association...

Comparative Study Between Conventional Fasting Versus Overnight Infusion of Lipid or Carbohydrate on Insulin and Free Fatty Acids in Obese Patients Undergoing Elective On-pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting. A Prospective Randomized Trial.

Journal of cardiothoracic and vascular anesthesia
OBJECTIVES: Postoperative insulin resistance represents a major component of postoperative metabolic disorder. The authors compared the effects of preoperative infusion of lipid emulsion or carbohydrate to conventional preoperative fasting on postope...

A machine learning approach for the identification of new biomarkers for knee osteoarthritis development in overweight and obese women.

Osteoarthritis and cartilage
OBJECTIVE: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is among the higher contributors to global disability. Despite its high prevalence, currently, there is no cure for this disease. Furthermore, the available diagnostic approaches have large precision errors and low...

An artificial neural network to predict resting energy expenditure in obesity.

Clinical nutrition (Edinburgh, Scotland)
BACKGROUND & AIMS: The resting energy expenditure (REE) determination is important in nutrition for adequate dietary prescription. The gold standard i.e. indirect calorimetry is not available in clinical settings. Thus, several predictive equations h...

An Ensemble Multilabel Classification for Disease Risk Prediction.

Journal of healthcare engineering
It is important to identify and prevent disease risk as early as possible through regular physical examinations. We formulate the disease risk prediction into a multilabel classification problem. A novel Ensemble Label Power-set Pruned datasets Joint...

The potential impact of the hypovitaminosis D on metabolic complications in obese adolescents - Preliminary results.

Annals of agricultural and environmental medicine : AAEM
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE: Vitamin D deficiency is common in obesity; however, its contribution in the development of metabolic complications remains uncertain. The aim of the study was to examine the relationships between vitamin D status and metab...
