Low-calorie sweetener (LCS) consumption is associated with metabolic disease in observational studies. However, physiologic mechanisms underlying LCS-induced metabolic impairments in humans are unclear. This study aimed to identify molecular pathways in adipose impacted by LCS The objective of this study was to investigate the associations between potassium and obesity/metabolic syndrome. We identified eight relevant studies and applied meta-analysis, and nonlinear dose-response analysis to obtain the available evidence. The results of the pooled analysis and systematic
To investigate the role of potassium deficiency in the development of glucose intolerance during caloric deprivation, potassium balance was maintained within normality with oral potassium supplementation in a group of obese subjects who underwent protein-modified fast and the results of the study of
OBJECTIVE
Muscle release of the amino acid 3-methyl-histidine (3MH) is a sensitive index of myofibrillar protein overdegradation (MPO). We hypothesized that patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) could have increased muscle release of 3MH, which in turn reflects MPO, and that serum electrolyte
OBJECTIVE
To validate the ability of DXA to measure total body composition before and after weight loss and the composition of the lost body mass.
METHODS
Cross sectional and follow-up study of body composition before and after a weight loss of 10.6 +/- 6.8 kg.
METHODS
31 obese subjects with a mean
Ten obese adolescents consumed the protein-sparing modified fast (PSMF), a high-protein, low-carbohydrate diet, for 92 +/- 19 d and lost 14.7 +/- 5.3 kg. The effect of weight loss using the PSMF on potassium, magnesium, and calcium was evaluated using balance method at days 2-4 and 12-20, RBC-Mg,
Seventeen obese adolescents were treated with the protein-sparing modified fast (PSMF), a high-protein, low-carbohydrate, low-calorie diet, for approximately 3 mo and then followed for a total of 12 mo. The diet provided a mean of 880 kcal.kg-1. d-1 and 2.5 g protein. kg IBW-1. d-1. Body composition
1. Intracellular Na+ concentration [Na+]i and Na+ extrusion catalysed by sodium potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase (Na+, K+-pump) were evaluated in erythrocytes from 21 obese children and 20 normal weight- and age-matched controls. 2. Obese children showed a significantly decreased Vmax.
1. We have shown, using intracellular and cell-attached recordings, that glucose-receptive (GR) neurones of obese Zucker rats exhibit abnormal electrophysiological responses to changes in extracellular glucose concentration, whereas GR neurones of lean Zucker and control rats respond normally. 2. In
Altered erythrocyte sodium potassium (Na,K)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity has been cited as having pathophysiologic significance in morbidly obese man. Previous studies have failed to consider obese patients after weight loss and, therefore, did not clarify the role of ATPase
Principally to ascertain whether mineral metabolism is involved in weight regulation, the 40 most obese of 1,774 children, aged 10-11 years, screened for obesity were compared with 46 age-matched controls. The obese children had more 3H-Ouabain erythrocyte binding sites (p = 0.04), higher
ATP sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channels reside in the plasma membrane of many excitable cells such as pancreatic beta-cells, heart, skeletal muscle and brain, where they link cellular metabolic energy to membrane electrical activity. They are composed of two subunits, K+ ion selective pore (Kir)
Looking for evidence of reduced energy use in the cells of obese persons, we measured the numbers of sodium-potassium-pump units in erythrocytes from a group of 21 obese human subjects and found them to be reduced by 22 per cent as compared with those of nonobese controls (P <0.001). The
This review is focused on the effects of obesity on function and expression of potassium (K) channels in the vasculature. Five families of K channels have been identified in the vascular wall, calcium-activated K (KCa) channels, inward-rectifier K (KIR) channels, ATP-sensitive K (KATP) channels,
The Trial of Antihypertensive Interventions and Management (TAIM) was a multicenter randomized drug (double-blind, placebo-controlled)-diet trial. One objective of TAIM was to assess the long-term ability of a low-sodium/high-potassium (Na+ decreases/K+ increases) diet to maintain blood pressure
