Body Composition Assessment in Pediatric Obesity: Reliability, Validity, and Clinical Applications
DownloadFall 2020
Adipose tissue and skeletal muscle have unique metabolic roles. Despite body mass index for age and sex (BMI z-score) being historically widely used to evaluate and monitor health status in children with obesity, it does not depict adiposity and muscularity (or their changes) during growth or...

Butyrate-mediated genomic changes involved in the non-specific host defenses, matrix remodelling and the immune response in the rumen epithelium of cows afflicted with subacute ruminal acidosis
Download2013
Steele, Michael A., Greenwood, Sabrina L., Plaizier, Jan C., McBride, Brian W., Matthews, James C., Laarman, Anne H., AlZahal, Ousama, Dionissopoulos, Louis
Subacute Ruminal Acidosis (SARA) is a disorder in cattle which can lead to chronic inflammation in the rumen epithelium, known as rumenitis. Butyrate has been shown to attenuate some of the detrimental effects of inflammatory gastroenteral disorders but the molecular mechanisms mediated by...

Cancer-associated malnutrition, cachexia and sarcopenia: the skeleton in the hospital closet 40 years later
Download2016-01-20
Ryan, Aoife M., Power, Derek G., Daly, Louise, Cushen, Samantha J., Ní Bhuachalla, Ēadaoin, Prado, Carla M.
An awareness of the importance of nutritional status in hospital settings began more than 40 years ago. Much has been learned since and has altered care. For the past 40 years several large studies have shown that cancer patients are amongst the most malnourished of all patient groups. Recently,...

Challenges created by data dissemination and access restrictions when attempting to address community concerns: individual privacy versus public wellbeing.
Download2012
Goodman, K.J., Hatcher, J., Geary, J., Aplin, L., Colquhoun, A.
Background: Population health data are vital for the identification of public health problems and the development of public health strategies. Challenges arise when attempts are made to disseminate or access anonymised data that are deemed to be potentially identifiable. In these situations,...
