Selective peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor {gamma} (PPAR{gamma}) modulation as a strategy for safer therapeutic PPAR{gamma} activation.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) is a clinically validated target for treatment of insulin resistance. PPARgamma activation by full agonists such as thiazolidinediones has shown potent and durable glucose-lowering activity in patients with type 2 diabetes without the concern for hypoglycemia or gastrointestinal toxicities associated with some other medications used to treat this disease. However, thiazolidinediones are linked to safety and tolerability issues such as weight gain, fluid retention, edema, congestive heart failure, and bone fracture. Distinctive properties of PPARgamma provide ...

Effect of green tea catechins with or without caffeine on anthropometric measures: a systematic review and meta-analysis.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: The administration of GTCs with caffeine is associated with statistically significantly reductions in BMI, body weight, and WC; however, the clinical significance of these reductions is modest at best. Current data do not suggest that GTCs alone positively alter anthropometric measurements. PMID: 19906797 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher] (Source: The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition)

Vitamin D insufficiency and health outcomes over 5 y in older women.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: Vitamin D insufficiency is more common in older, frailer women. Community-dwelling older women with a seasonally adjusted 25(OH)D concentration <50 nmol/L were not at risk of adverse outcomes over 5 y after control for comorbidities. Randomized placebo-controlled trials are needed to determine whether vitamin D supplementation in individuals with vitamin D insufficiency influences health outcomes.

The causes, prevalence and treatment of obesity revisited in 2009: what have we learned so far?Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Obesity is a chronic disease that is increasing in prevalence in the United States and worldwide and is often accompanied by multiple comorbidities that lead to type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. In April 2009, the American Society for Nutrition hosted the symposium "An Integrative View of Obesity" at Experimental Biology 2009 in New Orleans, LA. The presentations addressed the causes of the obesity epidemic and notably discussed a combination of genetics, obesogenic environment, cultural and racial concerns, and treatment modalities based on what we have learned from research into the physiology and neuroendo...

Lifestyle interventions for the treatment of class III obesity: a primary target for nutrition medicine in the obesity epidemic.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Although rates of obesity have increased universally in the United States over the last 30 y, it is clear that certain individuals are more susceptible to weight gain than others. Extreme obesity [body mass index (BMI; in kg/m(2)) > 40] is increasing at rates greater than any other class of obesity in the United States. Severely obese patients often suffer from a wide variety of comorbidities. Although weight-loss surgery is the most effective treatment, it offers little in the way of large-scale containment due to its costly and invasive nature. Lifestyle interventions that induce modest weight loss and improve fit...

Adiponectin in insulin resistance: lessons from translational research.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Adiponectin is an adipose tissue-secreted endogenous insulin sensitizer, which plays a key role as a mediator of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma action. Adiponectin alters glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity, exhibits antiinflammatory and antiatherogenic properties, and has been linked with several malignancies. Circulating concentrations of adiponectin are determined primarily by genetic factors, nutrition, exercise, and abdominal adiposity. Adiponectin concentrations are lower in subjects with obesity, metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular disease. Adiponectin knockout mice manifest glucose i...

Effects of TCF7L2 polymorphisms on glucose values after a lifestyle intervention.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: Lifestyle modifications improved the metabolic pattern in all genetic subgroups. At the end of the trial, however, weight gain occurred, and carriers of the T allele developed first hyperglycemia and decreased insulin secretion, which suggests the need for different "after-care" preventive approaches tailored to each genotype's metabolic risk.

Effects of a prolonged standardized diet on normalizing the human metabolome.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: For both the urinary and serum metabolome, a single day of dietary standardization appears to provide all of the normalization that is achievable within the strict controls implemented in a clinical research setting. After 24 h, the subjects remain in their metabolic space; the remaining intra- and intersubject variations appear to be influenced by variables such as genetics, age, and lifestyle.

Adolescent beverage habits and changes in weight over time: findings from Project EAT.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: We showed no association between sugar-sweetened beverage consumption, juice consumption, and adolescent weight gain over a 5-y period. A direct association between diet beverages and weight gain appeared to be explained by dieting practices. Adolescents who consumed little or no white milk gained significantly more weight than their peers who consumed white milk. Future research that examines beverage habits and weight among adolescents should address portion sizes, adolescent maturation, and dieting behaviors.

Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry modeling to explain the increased resting energy expenditure associated with the HIV lipoatrophy syndrome.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: Increased REE in subjects with HIV lipoatrophy cannot be explained by differences in organ-tissue mass as modeled by DXA. Instead, DXA and regression modeling of REE suggests that skeletal muscle is hypermetabolic in patients with HIV lipoatrophy.

Increased food energy supply is more than sufficient to explain the US epidemic of obesity.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: Increased energy intake appears to be more than sufficient to explain weight gain in the US population. A reversal of the increase in energy intake of approximately 2000 kJ/d (500 kcal/d) for adults and of 1500 kJ/d (350 kcal/d) for children would be needed for a reversal to the mean body weights of the 1970s. Alternatively, large compensatory increases in physical activity (eg, 110-150 min/d walking), or a combination of both, would achieve the same outcome. Population approaches to reducing obesity should emphasize a reduction in the drivers of increased energy intake. PMID: 19828708 [PubMed - as supplie...

{omega}-3 Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid intake and 12-y incidence of neovascular age-related macular degeneration and central geographic atrophy: a prospective cohort study from the Age-Related Eye Disease Study.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: The 12-y incidence of CGA and NV AMD in participants at moderate-to-high-risk of these outcomes was lowest for those reporting the highest consumption of omega-3 LCPUFAs. If these results are generalizable, they may guide the development of low-cost and easily implemented preventive interventions for progression to advanced AMD.

Randomized trial on the effects of a 7-d low glycemic diet and exercise intervention on insulin resistance in older obese humans.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that the metabolic improvements after short-term exercise training in older obese individuals are dependent on increased physical activity and are not influenced by a low-GI diet. However, a low-GI diet has added benefit in alleviating hypertension, thus reducing the risk of diabetic and vascular complications.
