Abstract Background Sedentary behavior is a modifiable risk factor for cardiometabolic health; however, the assessment of total sedentary time may not capture youth’s highly active and interrupted activity patterns. This study examined associations between patterns factors among Mexican youth, who have disproportionate burden metabolic diseases, using repeated measure design out longitudinal data. Methods 570 subjects in Early Life Exposure Mexico to ENvironmental Toxicants (ELEMENT) birth...
The association between organic food consumption and biomarkers of inflammation, C-reactive protein (CRP) cystatin C (CysC) was explored in this cross-sectional analysis older adults.Dietary data collected 2013 from a FFQ. Alternative Mediterranean diet score (A-MedDiet) calculated as measure healthy eating. Biomarkers CRP CysC were serum or plasma 2016. We used linear regression models to assess the associations CysC.This uses nationally representative, longitudinal panel study Americans...
We investigated dietary patterns and their associations with sociodemographic lifestyle factors in Saudi adults type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). A total of 297 participants (154 men 143 women) a mean age (standard deviation) 54.0 (7.0) years were enrolled the current study. Self-reported information on characteristics, eating behavior, frequency consumption was collected from all participants. Principal component analysis used to determine patterns. Multiple linear regressions examine...
Population aging is a global demographic characteristic of the 21st century, and healthy eating core component aging. However, limited evidence available among older adults for associations between diet quality circadian syndrome (CircS). Thus, this study examined dietary patterns CircS representative sample middle-older in US. The comprised enrolled 2016 wave Health Retirement Study (HRS) one its sub-studies, 2013 Care Nutrition (HCNS). A food frequency questionnaire was used to quantify...
Background: Bone-regulating hormones and nutrients play an important role in influencing metabolic health. Aim: The aim of this study was to determine whether bone-regulating nutrients, such as parathyroid hormone (PTH), 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD), magnesium (Mg) could be used characterize the metabolically healthy obese (MHO) phenotype. Methods: This included 27 overweight or participants (14 men/13 women) classified MHO ( n = 14) unhealthy (MUO) 13) based on presence absence...

DNA methylation (DNAm) is a plausible mechanism underlying cardiometabolic abnormalities, but evidence limited among youth. This analysis included 410 offspring of the Early Life Exposure in Mexico to Environmental Toxicants (ELEMENT) birth cohort followed up two time points late childhood/adolescence. At Time 1, DNAm was quantified blood leukocytes at long interspersed nuclear elements (LINE-1), H19, and 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 (11β-HSD-2), peroxisome proliferator-activated...

This study aimed to investigate association between anthropometric measurements cardiometabolic inflammatory biomarkers adults diabetes.
High prevalence of metabolic abnormalities and poor bone health in ethnic minorties may stem from differences body composition alterations endocrine milieu. South Asian Indians (SAIs) are at greater risk for syndrome (MetS) than Caucasians. Often these reported later life and/or a resident immigrant population compared to Caucasian population. In this study, we determined whether vitamin D status, bone, differed young SAIs Notably amongst recent SAI immigrants
