Group A experienced particularly reliable because of its high negative predictive value To our weight loss metabolic program, they decreased 10% of their normal daily knowledge, recent findings on the relation between NT-proBNP and morphologic food amount for three days (action phase) and returned to their normal and dynamic cardiac abnormalities in obesity are still inconsistent and daily food amount for one day (return phase). They observed it for controversial. We measured NT-proBNP concentrations in 27 severely obese twelve days. The decrease for the remained each twelve -day period was women with no complications and 15 normal-weight patients. All subjects were 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, for the action phases and 5%, 5%, 10%, 10%, for young with normal renal function, pre-menopausal, normotensive, normoglycemic, the changing return Phases alternatively. The program went on so that at not dyspneic, drug-free women; thus excluding the possibility that high NT- proBNP concentrations may be associated with hypertension and diabetes. All the last twelve -day period the food amount decrease for action phases patients and controls underwent echocardiography. Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) was 30% and for the changing return phases was 10%.Group B followed and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) areas in the obese group were assessed by weight gain metabolic program just like the program for weight loss computed tomography. Serum NT-proBNP concentrations were measured using group except that they increased the percents instead of decrease. Group the proBNP (Roche) assay on an Elecsys 2010 analyzer (Roche). Obese women C was as control group. The total period for the experimental and control had higher mean NT-proBNP concentrations than controls (P<0.001). NT-proBNP 2 groups was 60 days. To analyze data T test was used. Results: Group A concentrations were correlated with the VAT area (r =0.60, P<0.0001), VAT/SAT decreased their body weight from 86.5 kg to 79.33 kg (sig =.001). (r2=0.38, P<0.001) but not with SAT (P= -0.61). Fifteen obese patients with a greater amount of visceral fat (VAT >130 cm2) had higher mean NT-proBNP Group B gained 2.16 kg (sig = .003). No significant change in body concentrations than those with VAT less than 130 cm2 (n= 12) (P<0.02). The most weight was seen in control group (sig =.822 ). novel finding in our study is the significant correlation between NT-proBNP and echocardiographic parameters in an homogeneous population, even after correction for increased VAT (P<0.05). This may indicate that NT-proBNP itself could serve as an indicator of LV morpho-functional changes.

  • Effectiveness of Weight-Loss Camps As an Intervention Method in Childhood Obesity
    EFFECTIVENESS OF WEIGHT-LOSS CAMPS AS AN INTERVENTION METHOD IN CHILDHOOD OBESITY BY: CAROLYN EGEKEZE, BIOLOGY MENTOR: DR. MARNE CAMPBELL, AFRICAN AMERICAN STUDEIS ABSTRACT: Obesity remains a growing health issue in the United States for both adults and children. Obese children are likely to remain obese into adulthood, putting them at risk for developing chronic health issues. Many communities, public health officials, and others have begun to fight against childhood obesity, yet weight-loss camps remain largely overlooked as a potential method of intervention. While some studies suggest camps have short-term benefits in weight-loss and self-esteem, few studies have looked at long-term effectiveness of these camps. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of weight-loss camps for non-Hispanic black and Hispanic obese youth. If camps are shown to be successful in leading to sustained weight-loss and healthy living, they could be useful in helping to reduce childhood and adolescent obesity rates. Introduction Over the years, obesity has become a prominent public health issue within the United States. The percentage of people with obesity has increased for many sectors of the population, including children. In children, obesity is defined as having a body mass index (BMI) at or above the 95th percentile for a child’s age and sex1. For children specifically, obesity rates rose from 10.0% between 1988-1994 to 17.1% between 2003-2004, but have remained stable at 17.2% as of 2013-20142. Within the state of California, the percentage of children ages 10-17 with obesity is 31.2% as of 20163.

This study attempted to evaluate the short- and long-term effectiveness of a summer weight loss camp for children and adolescents. Subjects were administered eating and exercise self-efficacy questionnaires before and after camp, and again four months later. In addition to self-efficacy, Body Mass Index (BMI) and girth measurements were used to gauge changes in body size and shape. Three subject groups were compared to assess the impact of the length of stay (3, 6, or 9 weeks) at camp on success.

  • You Have Nothing to Lose! Using Culturally Relevant Pedagogy in Secondary Education to Make Space for Body Acceptance
    You have nothing to lose! Using culturally relevant pedagogy in secondary education to make space for body acceptance by Ashley C. Fullbrook A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts Graduate Department of Curriculum, Teaching and Learning, Program of Curriculum Studies & Teacher Development University of Toronto © Copyright by Ashley Fullbrook 2012 You have nothing to lose! Using culturally relevant pedagogy in secondary education to make space for body acceptance Ashley C. Fullbrook Masters of Arts Graduate Department of Curriculum, Teaching and Learning, Program of Curriculum Studies & Teacher Development University of Toronto November 2012 Abstract Schools are sites of great power and influence where the “obesity” discourse is often taken uncritically as truth and reproduced, to the detriment of young people. The purpose of this thesis was to investigate how theories of fatness can inform theories of culturally relevant pedagogy with the goal of helping teachers create spaces where increased size acceptance is possible for secondary students. Literature from both these areas of study was reviewed and applied to the Ontario secondary curriculum documents for science and physical education. This analysis demonstrated a body acceptance orientation in teaching these disciplines, and that doing so can mitigate many of the negative effects of living in a fat hating world. ii Table of Contents Abstract .........................................................................................................................................

  • Uric Acid Is Associated with Adiposity Factors, Especially with Fat Mass
    Niu et al. Nutr Metab (Lond) (2020) 17:79 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12986-020-00500-9 RESEARCH Open Access Uric acid is associated with adiposity factors, especially with fat mass reduction during weight loss in obese children and adolescents Yang Niu1†, Xue‑lin Zhao1†, Hui‑juan Ruan1, Xiao‑meng Mao1 and Qing‑ya Tang1,2* Abstract Background: Current adult studies suggest that uric acid (UA) is associated with body fat, but the relationship in obese children is unclear. Thus, we aim to evaluate the association between uric acid and body composition of obese children. Methods: A total of 79 obese children were included in this study, and 52 children (34 boys and 18 girls) underwent a 6‑week weight loss camp, including 34 boys and 18 girls. Six‑week weight‑loss interventions were performed on all participants through aerobic exercise and appropriate dietary control. Laboratory tests and body composition were collected before and after the intervention. Results: Before the intervention, correlation analysis demonstrated that uric acid was positively correlated with height, weight, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, hip circumference, fat mass (FM), and free fat mass (FFM) with adjusting for age and gender (P < 0.05). After 6 weeks of intervention, the participants gained 3.12 0.85 cm in height, body fat percentage decreased by 7.23 1.97%, and lost 10.30 2.83 kg in weight. Univariate and± multivariate analysis indicated that uric acid at baseline was± associated with FM reduction± during weight loss (P < 0.05). Conclusions: This study is the frst report that uric acid is associated with BMI and FM, and may play an important role in the reduction of FM during weight loss in obese children and adolescents.
