We compared television food advertising to children in several countries.We undertook a collaboration among 13 research groups Australia, Asia, Western Europe, and North South America. Each group recorded programming for 2 weekdays weekend days between 6:00 22:00, the 3 channels most watched by children, October 2007 March 2008. classified advertisements as core (nutrient dense, low energy), noncore (high undesirable nutrients or energy, defined dietary standards), miscellaneous. also...
Bariatric endoscopy has emerged as an aid in the nonsurgical treatment of obesity. The objective this study is to critically provide results and follow-up endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty 1 year after procedure.Prospective single-center 25 patients (5 men, 20 women) who underwent flexible suturing for endoluminal gastric volume reduction. A multidisciplinary team provided post-procedure care. Patient outcomes were recorded at procedure. Linear regression analysis was done evaluate variables...
To assess the role of health consequences maternal overweight and obesity at start pregnancy on gestational pathologies, delivery newborn characteristics.A cohort pregnant women (n = 6.558) having delivered Maternal & Child University Hospital Gran Canaria (HUMIGC) in 2008 has been studied. Outcomes were compared using multivariate analyses controlling for confounding variables.Compared to normoweight, obese have greater risks diabetes mellitus (RR 2.13 (95% CI: 1.52-2.98) 2.85 2.01-4.04),...
Dietary polyphenol intake is associated with improvement of metabolic disturbances. The aims the present study are to describe dietary in a population syndrome (MetS) and examine association between components MetS. This cross-sectional analysis involved 6633 men women included PREDIMED (PREvención con DIeta MEDiterranea-Plus) study. content foods was estimated from Phenol-Explorer 3.6 database. mean total 846 ± 318 mg/day. Except for stilbenes, had higher than men. Total older participants...
<b>Background and study aims:</b> Emerging endoscopic techniques are minimally invasive can mimic the anatomic alterations achieved by surgical sleeve gastrectomy. The objective of this was to evaluate gastroplasty. <b>Patients methods:</b> This a prospective, single-center 20 patients who underwent flexible suturing for endoluminal gastric volume reduction. A multidisciplinary team provided postprocedure care. Patient status weight were recorded at baseline, 1, 3, 6 months after procedure....
The main objective of the present study was to evaluate prevalence canine obesity and –related metabolic dysfunction (ORMD) in obesogenic area Spain. overweight/obesity among owners obese pets also evaluated. In sample population studied (93 client-owned dogs), 40.9% dogs presented (body condition score (BCS), 7-9/9), hypertension, 20.4% fasting hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholestrolemia, 5.4% hyperglycemia. overall ORMD 22.6%. Seventy eight percent overweight/obese had (P<0.001) including...
Bariatric endoscopic techniques are minimally invasive and induce gastric volume reduction to treat obesity. Aim : To evaluate sleeve gastroplasty (Apollo method) using a suturing method directed at the greater curvature, as well perioperative care, two year safety weight loss.Prospective single-center study over 154 patients (108 females) procedure under general anesthesia with overnight inpatient observation. Of the154 initial patients, 143 were available for 1-month of follow-up, 133...
Bariatric surgery therapy (BST) is an effective treatment for obesity; however, little known about its impacts on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and related factors. This study aimed to evaluate changes in HRQoL relationship with weight loss, depression status, physical activity (PA), nutritional habits after BST. Data were obtained before 18 months postprocedure from 56 obese patients who underwent We administered four questionnaires: Short Form-36 health survey HRQoL, 14-item...
Adipose tissue, in addition to serving as energy storage, can store lipophilic substances, some of which may pose a health risk if massively mobilized during rapid weight loss. This study aimed biomonitor inorganic elements obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery and analyze the role sociodemographic factors. ICP-MS was employed quantify 55 elements, including identified from ATSDR’s Substance Priority List rare-earth serum samples 58 before after surgery. A total 39 out were detected,...
Abstract Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), Crohn’s disease (CD), and ulcerative colitis (UC) are lifelong chronic, relapsing remitting conditions that culminate in progression many patients. Effective management of CD UC requires consideration both short long-term treatment outcomes. Historically, short-term outcomes such as clinical endoscopic remission symptom relief have been evaluated trials. With the expansion treatments targeting underlying pathophysiology, there is opportunity to...
Many obese patients cannot lose weight or reject conventional obesity management. Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (the Apollo method) is a pioneering coadjuvant, interventionist technique for the integral management of obesity.The goals this study were to report safety and efficacy results obtained at 6 months in undergoing endoscopic gastroplasty.A prospective was performed 55 (13 males, 42 females) who subjected technique; mean age 43.5 years (range 25-60) BMI 37.7 kg/m2 30-48). All...
Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) is an effective treatment option for obesity. However, data comparing its efficacy to bariatric surgery are scarce. We aimed compare the effectiveness and safety of ESG with laparoscopic gastrectomy (LSG) greater curve plication (LGCP) at 2 years. METHODS : reviewed 353 patient records identified 296 patients who underwent (n = 199), LSG 61), LGCP 36) four centers in Spain between 2014 2016. compared their total body weight loss (%TBWL) over A linear...
Obesity in humans is a growing global problem and one of the greatest public health challenges we face today. Most researchers agree that, as humans, incidence companion animal population also increasing. The aim this study was to evaluate risk factors contributing canine obesity region with high rate human (Canary Islands, Spain), co-occurrence obesogenic factors, percentage unneutered dogs. We have focused on owner that promote such weight, lifestyle, nutritional habits, low physical...
