A number of studies have been conducted to evaluate the effects vegetable oils with varying percentages monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids on insulin resistance. However, there is no report effect avocado oil this pathologic condition. The aim work was sucrose-induced resistance in Wistar rats. An experimental study carried out rats that were randomly assigned into six groups. Each group received a different diet over an 8-week period (n = 11 each group): control given standard...

Obesity is considered one of the most serious public health problems 21st century in children and adolescents. The percentile or Z-score body mass index widely used adolescents to define assess overweight obesity, but it does not determine percentage total fat. Other anthropometric measurements that fat are skinfold thickness methods composition assessment such as bio impedance analysis, both which rapid inexpensive.The aim study was correlate determined by Slaughter equation with analysis...

The aim of this study was to determine the effect thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) on serum lactate levels, maximum oxygen consumption (Vo(2max)) and heart rate in male athletes performing aerobic activity. A double-blind, randomized, crossover performed which Vo(2max) rates 27 were compared at rest after exercise, following administration placebo (sodium chloride 0.9%) or TPP (1 mg/kg). At rest, levels similar; however, lower taking than placebo. During higher similar but, It is concluded that...

Recent studies suggest that vitamin D plays an important role in the control of blood pressure. Unfortunately, because older adults are more likely to have low 25-hydroxyvitamin-D [25(OH)D] levels, this study investigated whether calcitriol supplementation reduces pressure with hypertension. The design was a double-blind placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial 36 randomly assigned subjects (71.7 ± 10 years). Blood and serum levels 25(OH)D before after intervention (1,000 IU daily for 6...

Abstract Background Obesity in children and adolescents has increased alarmingly, placing them at a higher risk for impaired glucose tolerance type 2 diabetes. The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency as well. Vitamin is critical homeostasis insulin secretion. Studies on adults have reported an inverse association between levels resistance (IR), but the results are inconsistent. aim our study was to determine IR serum obese Mexican adolescents.

Introduction: CD36 is a membrane protein that functions as lingual receptor for lipids. The soluble fraction (sCD36) may correlate oral fatty acid fat taste sensitivity to body mass index (BMI) and adiposity. Objectives: determine if the in healthy young individuals of both sexes related serum sCD36 levels, adiposity BMI. Methods: cross-sectional study was conducted 72 (18-25 years). Serum quantified all subjects. Oral determined using an ascending series three-alternate forced choice...

Background Gestational weight gain (GWG) influences both fetal and maternal health. Leptin is a biomarker that may predict the early development of obesity greater in childhood. Newborns with higher neonatal have been found to leptin levels umbilical cord blood (UCB). There are few studies evaluate UCB according GWG women normal body mass index (BMI). The aim present study was determine whether neonates born mothers high were higher, compared newborns whose had low GWG. Methods A...
