Muscle strength and functional exercise capacity in patients with lipoedema and obesity:

van Esch-Smeenge, José; Damstra, Robert J.; Hendrickx, Ad A. (Healthy Ageing, Allied Health Care And Nursing)

Background: Lipoedema is a chronic disorder of adipose tissue typically involving an abnormal build-up of fat cells in the legs, thighs and buttocks. Occurring almost exclusively in women, it often co-exists with obesity. Due to an absence of clear objective diagnostic criteria, lipoedema is frequently …

Oxygenation threshold derived from near-infrared Spectroscopy

van der Zwaard, Stephan; Jaspers, Richard T.; Blokland, Ilse J.; Achterberg, Chantal; Visser, Jurrian M.; den Uil, Anne R.; Hofmijster, Mathijs J.; Levels, Koen; Noordhof, Dionne A.; de Haan, Arnold; de Koning, Jos J.; van der Laarse, Willem J.; de Ruiter, Cornelis J.

BACKGROUND: Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) measurements of oxygenation reflect O2 delivery and utilization in exercising muscle and may improve detection of a critical exercise threshold. PURPOSE: First, to detect an oxygenation breakpoint (Δ[O2HbMb-HHbMb]-BP) and compare this breakpoint to ventilatory …

Skeletal muscle quality as assessed by CT-derived skeletal muscle density is associated with 6-month mortality in mechanically ventilated critically ill patients

Looijaard, Wilhelmus G.P.M.; Dekker, Ingeborg M.; Stapel, Sandra N.; Girbes, Armand R.J.; Twisk, Jos W.R.; Oudemans-van Straaten, Heleen M.; Weijs, Peter J.M. (Lectoraat Voeding En Beweging)

BACKGROUND: Muscle quantity at intensive care unit (ICU) admission has been independently associated with mortality. In addition to quantity, muscle quality may be important for survival. Muscle quality is influenced by fatty infiltration or myosteatosis, which can be assessed on computed tomography …

J. Most; J.G. van Can; Jan-Willem van Dijk; G.H. Goossens; J. Jocken; J.J. Hospers; I. Bendik; E.E. Blaak

Green tea, particularly epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), may affect body weight and composition, possibly by enhancing fat oxidation. The aim of this double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled cross-over study was to investigate whether 3-day supplementation with EGCG (282 mg/day) stimulates fat oxidation …

Wat is het effect van obesitas op de celgrootte en collageenvorming in gonadaal, subcutaan en visceraal vetweefsel? =

Mark Boer (Student)

Obesitas is een steeds vaker voorkomende aandoening in West-Europa, Noord-Amerika en andere welvarende delen van de wereld. Uit recent onderzoek van het RIVM is gebleken dat van de gehele volwassen populatie in Nederland in 2012, zo’n 40% overgewicht heeft en 12% obesitas. Bij obesitas vindt een ophoping …

Prednisolone induces the Wnt signalling pathway in 3T3-L1 adipocytes

Fleuren, Wilco W M; Linssen, Margot M L; Toonen, Erik J M; van der Zon, Gerard C M; Guigas, Bruno; de Vlieg, Jacob; Dokter, Wim H A; Ouwens, D Margriet; Alkema, Wynand (Data Science For Life Science & Health)

Synthetic glucocorticoids are potent anti-inflammatory drugs but show dose-dependent metabolic side effects such as the development of insulin resistance and obesity. The precise mechanisms involved in these glucocorticoid-induced side effects, and especially the participation of adipose tissue in this …
