- 1From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedObjective: It is now well recognized that obesity is a major public health concern, and its prevalence has tremendously increased worldwide over the last decades, including Tunisia. As obesity is associated with...
- 2From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedBackground: Although several studies have shown a positive association between evidence of anti-adenovirus 36 (Ad-36) antibodies (Ad-36 exposure) and (1) obesity and (2) serum cholesterol in animals, there is limited...
- 3From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedObjective: To evaluate the cross-sectional relationship of anthropometric measures (body mass index (BMI) and visceral fat and the adipokines leptin and adiponectin) with telomere length in a racially diverse sample....
- 4From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedBackground: It is unclear whether weight change during adulthood influences subsequent mortality in Asian populations, who have a relatively lean body mass. Objective: To assess the relation of weight change over 5...
- 5From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedObjective: Neuropeptide Y and its Y receptors are important players in the regulation of energy homeostasis. However, while their functions in feeding regulation are well recognized, functions in other critical aspects...
- 6From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedInternational Journal of Obesity (2010) 34, 406;doi: 10.1038/ijo.2009.287 Correction to: International Journal of Obesity(2010) 34, 280-286; doi:10.1038/ijo.2009.244;published online 24 November 2009 After the...
- 7From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedObjective: To test the hypothesis that for any given body mass index (BMI) category, active individuals would have a smaller waist circumference than inactive individuals. Our second objective was to examine the...
- 8From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedBackground: Consumption of snacks might contribute to the obesity epidemic. It is not clear how the moment of consumption and energy density of snacks can influence the compensatory response to consumption of snacks in...
- 9From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedBackground and objectives: The antiobesity effects of suppressed endocannabinoid signaling may rely, at least in part, on changes in lipid fluxes. As fatty acids exert specific effects depending on their level of...
- 10From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedBackground: In vitro and animal studies suggested that soy protein and isoflavones promote weight and body fat loss. However, clinical trials in humans were few and the effects remained uncertain. Objectives: To...
- 11From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedThe age-induced decline in the body's ability to fight disease is exacerbated by obesity and metabolic disease. Using a mouse model of diet-induced obesity, the combined challenge of a high-fat diet and age on liver...
- 12From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedObjective: Evodiamine (evo) has been shown to exert anti-inflammatory, antinociceptive and anticancer effects. In this study, we investigated the effects of evo alone and in combination with rosiglitazone (rosi) on in...
- 13From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedObjectives: Physiological and behavioral circadian rhythmicities are exhibited by all mammals and are generated by intracellular levels of circadian oscillators, which are composed of transcriptional/translational...
- 14From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedObjective: The aim of this study was to determine if the fat accumulation in the exocrine pancreas fat of obese Zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rodents, like that in their endocrine pancreas, precedes the onset of type 2...
- 15From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedObjective: The current set of studies describe the in vivo metabolic actions of the novel amylin-mimetic peptide davalintide (AC2307) in rodents and compares these effects with those of the native peptide. Research...
- 16From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedObjective: To assess whether physical activity, diet or inflammation is a more important determinant of body mass index (BMI) and body fat (BF) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods: A total of 150 RA...
- 17From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedObjective: The aim of the study was to investigate the crude prevalence and estimated probability of undiagnosed diabetes in different ethnic groups, given the same level of obesity. Design and Subjects:...
- 18From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedObjective: The objective of this study was to analyze whether maternal negative affectivity assessed in pregnancy is related with subsequent infant food choices. Design: The study design was a cohort study....
- 19From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedObjective: Obesity is an independent cardiovascular risk factor, but its prognostic role in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is not well defined. Accordingly, we assessed the impact of body mass index...
- 20From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 34, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedObjective: Lipocalin-2 (neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, NGAL) is an innate immune system protein that has been linked to insulin resistance and obesity, but the mechanisms behind these associations are...
