Controlled testing of novel portion control plate produces smaller self-selected portion sizes compared to regular dinner plate
BMC Obesity - Tập 4 - Trang 1-8 - 2017
Obesity is a global health crisis, and portion control is a key method for
reducing excess body weight. Given consumers’ familiarity with large portion
sizes, reducing portion sizes can be difficult. Smaller plates are often
recommended to reduce portion sizes and appear to reduce portion sizes. However,
there are no studies evaluating dishes specifically designed to facilitate
portion control. Th...
Discriminative ability of adiposity measures for elevated blood pressure among adolescents in a resource-constrained setting in northeast Nigeria: a cross-sectional analysis
BMC Obesity - Tập 5 - Trang 1-10 - 2018
Several studies examining the association and discriminative ability of
adiposity measures for prehypertension and hypertension among adolescents have
reported varying outcomes. We aimed to determine the discriminative ability of
the Body Mass index (BMI), Waist Circumference (WC), and Waist-to-Height Ratio
(WHtR) adiposity measures for elevated blood pressure (prehypertension and
hypertension com...
Predictors of early attrition and successful weight loss in patients attending an obesity management program
BMC Obesity - Tập 3 - Trang 1-9 - 2016
Our objective was to identify factors that are independently associated with
early attrition and successful weight loss (WL) in an obesity-management
program. Participants were 9,498 patients enrolled in treatment at the Wharton
Weight Management Clinic for at least 6 months. Predictors of early attrition
(<6 months) and successful WL (≥5 %) were analyzed using relative risk (RR) in
men and women ...
Willingness to participate in weight-related research as reported by patients in PCORnet clinical data research networks

A cluster randomized controlled trial for child and parent weight management: children and parents randomized to the intervention group have correlated changes in adiposity
BMC Obesity - - 2017
Studies have suggested that obesity is linked within families and that
successful interventions involve both the parent and child with obesity. However
little information exists regarding similarities in adiposity and weight loss
between the parent and child, especially in low socio-economic ethnically
diverse households. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships
between the chang...
The association between severity of King’s Obesity Staging Criteria scores and treatment choice in patients with morbid obesity: a retrospective cohort study
BMC Obesity - Tập 3 - Trang 1-7 - 2016
The King’s Obesity Staging Criteria (KOSC) comprises of a four-graded set of
health related domains. We aimed to examine whether, according to KOSC, patients
undergoing bariatric surgery differed from those opting for conservative
treatment. We graded 2142 consecutive patients with morbid obesity attending our
centre from 2005-10 into the following KOSC domains: airway/apnoea, body mass
index (BMI...
Correlation of adiposity indices with cardiovascular disease risk factors in healthy adults of Singapore: a cross-sectional study
BMC Obesity - - 2016
Obesity has long been highlighted for its association with increased incidence
of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Nonetheless, the best adiposity indices to
evaluate the CVD risk factors remain contentious and few studies have been
performed in Asian populations. In the present study, we compared the
association strength of percent body fat (PBF) to indirect anthropometric
measures of general adipos...
The use and reporting of primary and secondary outcome measures in trials evaluating childhood obesity treatment interventions
BMC Obesity - Tập 1 - Trang 1-7 - 2014
Existing systematic reviews aimed at comparing effectiveness of childhood
obesity treatment interventions are limited by a lack of quality in the conduct
and reporting of trials in this area. This study aimed to identify the number
and types of primary and secondary outcomes used within trials of childhood
obesity treatments and to determine the degree to which these trials correctly
report their ...
Severe obesity, emotions and eating habits: a case-control study
BMC Obesity - Tập 4 - Trang 1-9 - 2017
Obesity has a multifaceted etiology that involves genetic, biological and
behavioral factors, body growth, eating habits, energy expenditure and the
function of adipose tissue. The present study aimed to expand upon knowledge
about the relationships among obesity, emotions and eating habits in severely
obese individuals using a case-control method. The subject group consisted of
112 individuals (8...
