Recent advances in understanding body weight homeostasis in ...
More recent data suggested that obesogenic environments accentuate the genetic risk of obesity 45: using BMI as an outcome and a 10-variant genetic risk score in a socially deprived population, researchers found that genetic risk was associated with 3.8kg extra weight in a normal subject.
Effect of exercise training on weight loss, body composition ...
This overview of reviews provides evidence that exercise training improves bodyweight and body composition in adults with overweight or obesity. The benefits of exercise include reductions of body weight, total body fat and visceral adipose tissue.
Body Mass Index: Obesity, BMI, and Health: A Critical Review
The body mass index (BMI) is the metric currently in use for defining anthropometric height/weight characteristics in adults and for classifying (categorizing) them into groups. The common interpretation is that it represents an index of an individual's fatness.
Most Important Outcomes Research Papers on Body Weight ...
We have included papers that evaluate (1) the epidemiology of bodyweight and obesity, (2) the relationship between bodyweight and cardiovascular disease, and (3) the effects of environmental, genetic, and other factors on body weight and obesity.
Physical Activity and Excess Body Weight and Adiposity for ...
Most of the scientific literature has reported on the contribution of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity to the regulation of body weight, which includes prevention of weight gain, weight loss, and weight loss maintenance.
The Utility of Body Composition Assessment in Nutrition and ...
Anthropometric and body composition assessments are used to routinely detect or diagnose several important nutritional problems among adults and youth, including being overweight, obesity, undernutrition, osteoporosis, sarcopenia, and sarcopenic obesity.
Effects of aerobic and/or resistance training on body mass ...
Perhaps the most commonly cited reason for the reduction of fat mass and bodyweight by RT is that resting metabolic rate (RMR) theoretically increases as lean body mass increases (10, 16, 20, 22), resulting in a steady state increase in total energy expenditure and a corresponding negative shift in energy balance. Although we did not directly ...
Effectiveness of weight management interventions for adults ...
We examined the effectiveness of weight loss interventions delivered in primary care on measures of body composition (weight and waist circumference). We also identified characteristics of effective weight management programmes for policy makers to consider.
Changes in Diet and Lifestyle and Long-Term Weight Gain in ...
The average weight gain across the cohorts was 3.35 lb (5th to 95th percentile, −4.1 to 12.4), or 2.4% of bodyweight (5th to 95th percentile, −3.0 to 8.4), during each 4-year period; this ...
Effect of exercise training on weight loss, body composition ...
These findings show favorable effects of exercise training on weight loss and body composition changes in adults with overweight or obesity. Visceral fat loss may lead to benefits for cardiometabolic health. More research is needed to identify training modalities that promote weight maintenance.
