Emerging obesity among preschool-aged Canadian Inuit children: results from the Nunavut Inuit Child Health Survey
Download2010-04-26
Galloway, Tracey, Young, T. Kue, Egeland, Grace M.
"Objectives: The study goal was to evaluate the growth status of preschool-age Canadian Inuit children. Study design: As part of a larger study of population health across the Canadian High Arctic, the International Polar Year Inuit Health Survey collected growth and nutrition data on 388...

Enrollment in Multidisciplinary Clinical Care for Pediatric Weight Management: Predictors, Reasons, Facilitators, and Recommendations
DownloadFall 2017
Background: One-third of Canadian children meet the criteria for overweight or obesity. While multidisciplinary clinical care (MCC) can be effective to manage pediatric obesity, many eligible children are not referred to this level of care and many of those who are referred do not enroll in...

Examining Associations of Community Food Environments with Individual Diet Quality and Body Weight Status of Canadian Children
DownloadFall 2019
Reducing the prevalence of unhealthy eating is an important challenge to address in order to reduce the burden of obesity and chronic disease. Approximately 1.6 million or one-third of Canadian children and youth are overweight or obese, and about 70% of children and youth consume less than five...

Feasibility study of asset mapping with children: Identifying how the community environment shapes activity and food choices in Alexander First Nation
Download2013
Fehderau, David D., Willows, Noreen D., Ball, Geoff D., Holt, Nicholas L.
Introduction: It is estimated that First Nations children living on reserves are 4.5 times more likely to be obese than Canadian children in general. Many First Nations children living on reserves have limited healthy food and physical activity options. Understanding how community factors...

Fecal Pellet Counts as a Technique for Monitoring an Alpine-Dwelling Social Rodent, the Hoary Marmot (Marmota caligata)
Download2004
Karels, T. J., Koppel, L., Hik, D. S.
We evaluated fecal pellet counts as an index of hoary marmot (Marmota caligata) social group size in order to develop a simple, inexpensive method for monitoring population change of a widely distributed, but poorly studied alpine mammal. Fecal pellet counts were conducted in three separate...

Feeding high oleic acid Canola oil or olive oil alters inflammation, insulin resistance and lipid metabolism in a rodent model of diet induced obesity
DownloadFall 2011
To determine the efficacy of feeding monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) via a high MUFA Canola oil on T2D risk factors diet induced obese rats were fed either a low fat diet (LF), a high fat low MUFA diet (HF), a high fat high MUFA olive oil diet (OO), or a high fat high MUFA Canola oil diet...

Feeding long chain (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids to obese leptin receptor deficient JCR:LA-cp rats modifies immune function and lipid raft fatty acid composition
Download2009
Ruth, Megan R., Field, Catherine J., Proctor, Spencer D.
Dietary EPA and DHA modulate immunity and thereby may improve the aberrant immune function in obese states. To determine the effects of feeding fish oil (FO) containing EPA and DHA on splenocyte phospholipid (PL) and lipid-raft fatty acid composition, phenotypes and cytokine production,...

For some salmon populations, the individual and population effects of sea lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) transmission from sea cage salmon farms is probably mediated by predation, which is a primary natural source of mortality of juvenile salmon. We examined how sea lice infestation affects...

Hegele, Robert A., Anderson, Carol, Young, T. Kue, Connelly, Philip W.
"The GNB3 825T allele encodes a product that has enhanced activation of heterotrimeric G proteins in vitro and could play a role in adipogenesis. We therefore evaluated the possibility that the GNB3 825T allele was associated with obesity in a sample of 213 healthy Canadian Inuit. We found that...

Gastroesophageal Motility and Reflux Following Bariatric Surgery for the Treatment of Severe Obesity
DownloadFall 2017
Obesity is a recognized complex chronic disease that impacts millions of people globally. Bariatric surgery is the only evidence-based method for sustainable weight loss and resolution of obesity associated morbidities. However, complications can occur after surgery, in particular...
