Obesity Assessment:Tools, Methods, Interpretations
Author: Sachiko St. Jeor
Publisher: Jones & Bartlett Learning
ISBN: 9780412072413
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 972
Book Description
This book provides reference points for researcher, clinicians and edu cators for assessing obesity in different individuals and populations. It serves as a ready reference for selected measures of weight, nutri tion and dietary intake, activity and exercise, behavior, well-being, and disease risk relationships. It presents assessment tools, along wi th their applications and practical interpretations. Emphasis is given to the differences by age, gender, weight status and the many interre lated variables that contribute to the development and/or exacerbation of the obese state.

The Lipid Research Clinics Population Studies Data Book: The USSR first prevalence study
Author: National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute. Lipid Metabolism Branch
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Atherosclerosis
Languages : en
Pages : 88
Book Description
The Lipid Research Clinics have the following main objectives: to evaluate current techniques for diagnosis of hyperlipoproteinemia; to acquire data across all age groups on the prevalence of different types of hyperlipoproteinemia, particualarly genetically determined forms; to collect high-quality data on the prevalence and incidence of atherosclerosis in different patterns of hyperlipoproteinemia; and to improve methods for detection, diagnosis and medical care of coronary heart disease. This study, along with its companion studies (the family study and the mortality follow-up study) seeks to provide improved information on the prevalence of hyperlipidemia and hyperlipoproteinemia, their determinants and sequelae.

Eicosanoids, Apolipoproteins, Lipoprotein Particles, and Atherosclerosis
Author: Claude L. Malmendier
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461307333
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
Plasma lipoproteins constitute a unique macromolecular system of lipid-protein complexes responsible for the transport of lipids from their sites of origin to their sites of utilization either as metabolic fuel or as structural components of cell membranes. Although studies on the role of lipoproteins in the mechanism of lipid transport are meritorious in their own right, the ever-increasing interest in chemical and functional properties of this remarkable class of conjugated proteins stems from the impressive evidence of their direct involvement in the genesis and develop ment of atherosclerotic lesions. The initial emphasis on neutral lipids and phospholipids as the most characteristic constituents of operationally defined lipoprotein classes has shifted in recent years to their protein moieties or apolipoproteins. The discovery of a number of apolipoproteins and characterization of familial hypolipoproteinemias as apolipoprotein deficiency disorders indicated that apolipoproteins play an essential role in maintaining the structural stability and integrity of lipoprotein particles. In addition to their role in the formation of lipoproteins, apolipoproteins were shown to perform a variety of functions in metabolic conversion of lipoproteins and their interactions with cellular surfaces. Results from several laboratories have demonstrated that the chemical and metabolic heterogeneity of operationally-defined lipoprotein classes is due to the presence of several discrete lipoprotein particles with similar physical properties but different and characteristic apolipoprotein composition. Thus, the apolipoproteins have emerged not only as essential structural and functional constituents of lipoproteins but also as unique chemical markers for identifying and classifying lipoprotein particles.
