(2016-02-03)Inngangur: Markmið rannsóknarinnar var að meta skammtíma- og langtímaárangur fjögurra vikna þverfaglegrar hópmeðferðar vegna offitu með eftirfylgd ásamt því að bera saman árangur þeirra sem fóru í hjáveituað- gerð og hinna sem ekki fóru í slíka aðgerð. ... -
(2023-06-18)Fussy eaters may have an increased risk of becoming overweight or obese as adolescents, with fussy eating and weight status also correlating with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDs) such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention deficit/hyperactivity ...
-
(BMJ, 2020-02-25)Background: Previous studies have reported an association between weight increase and excess lung function decline in young adults followed for short periods. We aimed to estimate lung function trajectories during adulthood from 20-year weight change ...
-
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2018-04-25)Life course data on obesity may enrich the quality of epidemiologic studies analysing health consequences of obesity. However, achieving such data may require substantial resources. We investigated the use of body silhouettes in adults as a tool to ...

(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-06-13)Purpose: Obesity increases the risk of several cancers, but the influence of bariatric surgery on the risk of individual obesity-related cancers is unclear. This study aimed to assess the impact of bariatric surgery on cancer risk in a multi-national ...
-
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2018-09-12)Background: The aim of this investigation was to study change in adults over a 20 year period in the prevalence of respiratory symptoms and disorders and its association to year of birth, life style and sleep related variables. Method: Adults 20-44 ...
-
(2023-06-01)AIMS: Although highly heritable, the genetic etiology of calcific aortic stenosis (AS) remains incompletely understood. The aim of this study was to discover novel genetic contributors to AS and to integrate functional, expression, and cross-phenotype ...

(Springer Nature, 2017-04-26)Few genome-wide association studies (GWAS) account for environmental exposures, like smoking, potentially impacting the overall trait variance when investigating the genetic contribution to obesity-related traits. Here, we use GWAS data from 51,080 ...
-
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2017-04-27)Physical activity (PA) may modify the genetic effects that give rise to increased risk of obesity. To identify adiposity loci whose effects are modified by PA, we performed genome-wide interaction meta-analyses of BMI and BMI-adjusted waist circumference ...

(Menntavísindasvið Háskóla Íslands, 2016-12-31)Í þessari grein verður fjallað um þá spurningu hvers vegna offita er í síauknum mæli við- fang heilbrigðisstétta og hvort sú þróun sé til hagsbóta fyrir feitt fólk. Þótt Alþjóðaheilbrigðismálastofnunin hafi lýst því yfir að offita sé meðal alvarlegustu ...

(MDPI AG, 2018-01-11)Obese children are usually less active than their normal-weight counterparts, although the reasons for this remain unclear. The objective of the present study was to determine how a long-term program (3 years of intervention and 6 months of follow-up ...
-
(2023-02)Introduction: Obesity is a known risk factor for asthma. Although some evidence showed asthma causing obesity in children, the link between asthma and obesity has not been investigated in adults. Methods: We used data from the European Community ...
-
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-04-20)A double burden of malnutrition occurs when individuals, household members or communities experience both undernutrition and overweight. Here, we show geospatial estimates of overweight and wasting prevalence among children under 5 years of age in 105 ...
-
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2016-07-27)This study examined the effects and specificity of structured and unstructured activities played at the playground Primo Sport 0246 in Northern Italy on motor skill competence in five years old children. The playground was specifically designed to ...
-
(MDPI AG, 2019-06-22)The previously reported 1-(2,4-dihydroxy-5-methylphenyl)ethan-1-one (1), (1’Z)-2-(1’,5’-dimethylhexa-1’,4’-dieny1)-5-methylbenzene-1,4-diol (2), and 1,8-epoxy-1(6),2,4,7,10-bisaborapentaen-4-ol (5) together with four new structures of aromatic ...
-
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2017-07-07)Background A large number of observational studies have reported harmful effects of low 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) levels on non-skeletal outcomes. We performed a systematic quantitative review on characteristics of randomized clinical trials (RCTs) ...
-
(2022-08-26)AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Nordic dietary patterns that are high in healthy traditional Nordic foods may have a role in the prevention and management of diabetes. To inform the update of the EASD clinical practice guidelines for nutrition therapy, we conducted ...
