Abstract Context: Common concerns when using low-calorie diets as a treatment for obesity are the reduction in fat-free mass, mostly muscular that occurs together with fat mass (FM) loss, and determining best methodologies to evaluate body composition changes. Objective: This study aimed very-low-calorie ketogenic (VLCK) diet-induced changes of obese patients compare 3 different used those Design: Twenty followed VLCK diet 4 months. Body assessment was performed by dual-energy X-ray...
BackgroundThe triglyceride glucose (TyG) index is an easily accessible surrogate marker of insulin resistance, important pathway in the development type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. However, association TyG with diseases mortality has mainly been investigated Asia, few data available from other regions world. We assessed resistance (as determined by index) individuals five continents at different levels economic development, living urban or rural areas. also examined whether...
Purpose In youth, poor cardiorespiratory and muscular strength are associated with elevated metabolic risk factors. However, studies examining associations between factors have been done exclusively in high income countries, largely Caucasian cohorts. The aim of this study was to assess these interactions schoolchildren Colombia, a middle Latin American country. Methods We measured body mass index, composition, handgrip (HG), fitness (CRF) 669 low-middle socioeconomic status Colombian (mean...
Psychological well-being and hunger food control are two relevant factors involved in the success of weight-loss therapy treating obesity. Thus, this study aims to evaluate alcohol cravings, physical sexual activity, sleep, life quality (QoL) obese patients following a very low-calorie ketogenic (VLCK) diet, as well role weight lost ketosis on these parameters. A battery psychological test was performed twenty (12 females, 47.2 ± 10.2 year BMI 35.5 4.4) through course 4-month VLCK diet four...
The resting metabolic rate (RMR) decrease, observed after an obesity reduction therapy is a determinant of short-time weight regain. Thus, the objective this study was to evaluate changes in RMR, and associated hormonal alterations obese patients with very low-calorie ketogenic (VLCK)-diet induced severe body (BW) loss.From 20 who lost 20.2 kg BW 4-months VLCK-diet, blood samples composition analysis, determined by DXA MF-Bioimpedance, RMR indirect calorimetry, were obtained on four...
<h3>Background:</h3> Household devices (e.g., television, car, computer) are common in high income countries, and their use has been linked to obesity type 2 diabetes mellitus. We hypothesized that device ownership is associated with these effects explained through reduced physical activity, increased sitting time energy intake. <h3>Methods:</h3> performed a cross-sectional analysis using data from the Prospective Urban Rural Epidemiology study involving 153 996 adults high, upper-middle,...
The preservation of muscle mass and function after weight loss therapy is currently a considerable challenge in the fight against obesity. Muscle secretes proteins called myokines that have relevant functions regulation metabolism health. This study was aimed to evaluate whether very low-calorie ketogenic (VLCK) diet may modulate myokine levels, addition changes body composition, compared standard, balanced (LC) or bariatric surgery patients with Body ketosis, insulin sensitivity were...
Abstract Background Adiposity is a major component of the metabolic syndrome (MetS), low muscle strength has also been identified as risk factor for MetS and cardiovascular disease. We describe prevalence evaluate relationship between strength, anthropometric measures adiposity, associations with cluster components MetS, in middle-income country. Methods was defined by International Diabetes Federation criteria. To assess association variables (waist circumference (WC), waist-to-hip ratio...
Background . Garlic ( Allium sativum ) has been shown to have important benefits in individuals at high cardiovascular risk. The aim of the present study was evaluate effects administration aged garlic extract (AGE) on risk factors that constitute cluster metabolic syndrome (MS). Methods and Design Double-blind, crossover, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial assess effect 1.2 g/day AGE (Kyolic), for 24 weeks treatment (12 12 placebo), subjects with MS. Results increased plasma...
AIM:To assess the performance of Finnish Diabetes Risk Score (FINDRISC) questionnaire for detecting and predicting type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) in a Colombian population.
Hypertension is the principal risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. The global Prospective Urban Rural Epidemiology study showed that levels of awareness, treatment and control this condition are very low worldwide show large regional variations related to a country's income index. aim present analysis was identify associations between sociodemographic, geographic, anthropometric, behavioral clinical factors hypertension within Colombia - high-middle country which participated in...
The current study aims to evaluate the association between neck circumference (NC) and several cardio-metabolic risk factors, compare it with well-established anthropometric indices, determine cut-off point value of NC for predicting children at increased metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance low-grade systemic inflammation.A total 669 school children, aged 8-14, were recruited. Demographic, clinical, biochemical data from all patients collected. Correlations factors other variables...
