Cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength, and obesity in adolescence and later chronic disability due to cardiovascular disease: a cohort study of 1 million men
Aims: Cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength, and obesity in adulthood are risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, little is known regarding the associations of these risk factors, already in adolescence, ... -
Circulating miRNAs as biomarkers of obesity and obesity-associated comorbidities in children and adolescents: a systematic review
Early detection of obesity and its associated comorbidities in children needs priority for the development of effective therapeutic intervention. Circulating miRNAs (microRNAs) have been proposed as biomarkers for obesity ... -
Comparison between capacitive and microstructured optical fiber soil moisture sensors
Soil moisture content has always been an important parameter to control because it is a deterministic factor for site-specific irrigation, seeding, transplanting, and compaction detection. In this work, a discrete sensor ... -
Comparison of bioelectrical impedance analysis, slaughter skinfold-thickness equations, and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry for estimating body fat percentage in Colombian children and adolescents with excess of adiposity
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) has been considered a reference method for measuring body fat percentage (BF%) in children and adolescents with an excess of adiposity. However, given that the DXA technique is ... -
Congruent validity of resting energy expenditure predictive equations in young adults
Having valid and reliable resting energy expenditure (REE) estimations is crucial to establish reachable goals for dietary and exercise interventions. However, most of the REE predictive equations were developed some time ... -
Conversión de las explotaciones de vacuno de leche a la producción de leche A2 ante una posible demanda del mercado: posibilidades e implicaciones
El mercado de la leche de vaca, tras la desaparición de las cuotas lácteas, está provocando una importante restructuración en el sector. Una de las alternativas que están desarrollando, fundamentalmente las pequeñas ... -
Detection of minced lamb and beef fraud using NIR spectroscopy
The aim of this work was to investigate the feasibility of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), combined with chemometric techniques, to detect fraud in minced lamb and beef mixed with other types of meats. For this, 40 ... -
Dietary determinants of hepatic fat content and insulin resistance in overweight/obese children: a cross-sectional analysis of the Prevention of Diabetes in Kids (PREDIKID) study
Pediatric non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has increased in parallel with childhood obesity. Dietary habits, particularly products rich in sugars, may influence both hepatic fat and insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). ... -
Differences in areal bone mineral density between metabolically healthy and unhealthy overweight/obese children: the role of physical activity and cardiorespiratory fitness
Objectives: To examine whether areal bone mineral density (aBMD) differs between metabolically healthy (MHO) and unhealthy (MUO) overweight/obese children and to examine the role of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity ... -
Differences in brain volume between metabolically healthy and unhealthy overweight and obese children: the role of fitness
The aim of this study was to examine whether metabolically healthy overweight/obese children have greater global and regional gray matter volumes than their metabolically unhealthy peers. We further examined the association ... -
Dissolved solids and suspended sediment dynamics from five small agricultural watersheds in Navarre, Spain: a 10-year study
(Elsevier, 2019) Artículo / ArtikuluaDissolved solids (DS) and suspended sediment (SS) loads are considered relevant environmental problems. They are related to a wide range of on-site and off-site impacts, such as soil erosion or salinization of water bodies. ... -
Efecto de la maduración en la conservación de la carne de potro
Para el desarrollo del presente estudio, se investigó el efecto de la maduración del músculo Longissimus dorsi (LD), por un lado como pieza entera y por otro lado tras el fileteado, sobre los parámetros de calidad de la ... -
The effect of a family-based lifestyle education program on dietary habits, hepatic fat and adiposity markers in 8-12-year-old children with overweight/obesity
Healthy lifestyle education programs are recommended for obesity prevention and treatment. However, there is no previous information on the effects of these programs on the reduction of hepatic fat percentage. The aims ... -
Effect of irrigation on carbonate dynamics in a calcareous soil using isotopic determinations
Este artículo evalúa el efecto del regadío en la dinámica de los carbonatos en suelos agrícolas. Se ha estudiado la proporción y distribución de carbonatos pedogénicos en las fracciones granulométricas de un suelo en regadío ... -
Effect of slaughter age and finishing diet on sensory evaluation and consumers’ preference of foal meat
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (INIA), 2019) Artículo / ArtikuluaAim of study: This study focused on the sensory evaluation and consumer preferences of foal meat depending on the animal slaughter age (13 and 26 months) and finishing diet (standard and linseed concentrate). Area of study: ... -
Effect of stoniness on the hydraulic properties of a soil from an evaporation experiment using the wind and inverse estimation methods
Stony soils are distributed all over the world. The study of their characteristics has gained importance lately due to their increasing use as agricultural soils. The effect that rock fragments exert on the soil hydraulic ... -
Effect of the presence of ethyl lauroyl arginate on the technological properties of edible fish gelatin films
Physical, chemical and antimicrobial properties of fish gelatin films with different 19 concentrations of ethyl lauroyl arginate (LAE) were studied. Optical properties 20 of film-forming solution did not vary with increased ... -
Effects of exercise in addition to a family-based lifestyle intervention program on hepatic fat in children with overweight
OBJECTIVE Pediatric hepatic steatosis is highly prevalent and closely related to type 2 diabetes. This study aimed to determine whether the addition of supervised exercise to a family-based lifestyle and psycho-educational ... -
Effects of leucine-enriched whey protein supplementation on physical function in post-hospitalized older adults participating in 12-weeks of resistance training program: a randomized controlled trial
Age-related strength and muscle mass loss is further increased after acute periods of inactivity. To avoid this, resistance training has been proposed as an effective countermeasure, but the additional effect of a protein ... -
