..quot; The TFEQ-R18 was therefore able to distinguish among different eating patterns in our sample of a French general population...

..The latter was illustrated by studying cross-sectional and longitudinal relationships between eating behavior and adiposity, using four different indicators of fat mass...

..referent Obesity can become a model for a new approach to medicine, based on work in synergy with the social actors and social and health care...

..To study the influence of energy and macronutrient intake on infant birthweight in women with gestational diabetes mellitus undergoing intensive management...

..We took the opportunity to measure the outcomes in terms of childhood obesity and overweight over the next 12 years...

..To assess the postprandial leptin responses to a carbohydrate and a fatty meal in obese subjects and its association with postprandial insulin response...

..To study the relationships between physical activity and plasma leptin levels in children from a population-based study, taking into account puberty stages...

..Diet-induced weight loss is associated with an increase in fasting ghrelin. The influence of weight loss on postprandial ghrelin response remains discussed, but the specific response to macronutrients is not known...

..To assess the prevalence of obesity and changes in body mass index (BMI) distribution between 1989 and 1999 in 5-y-old children, and to study the influence of parental socioeconomic status on these parameters...

..Our aim was to determine whether insulin resistance (IR) influences the histologic effects induced by bariatric surgery...

..Some results on food consumption in adults and children from the Fleurbaix Laventie Ville Santé Study are presented...

..Neuromedin B (NMB) is a bombesin-like peptide, which inhibits food intake and modulates stress-related behaviour. An NMB gene polymorphism (P73T) has been earlier associated with obesity and abnormal eating behaviour in adults...

..To assess the effect of weight loss on the plasma lipid and remnant-like lipoprotein cholesterol (RLPc) response to a high-fat or a high-carbohydrate meal in a population of obese women...

..In conclusion, a carbohydrate meal induces higher postprandial leptin levels than an isoenergetic fat meal. Short-term regulation of postprandial satiety and food intake is not influenced by circulating leptin...

..CONCLUSION: In potential candidates for LRYGBP with super obesity, preoperative placement of an intragastric balloon can reduce the excess weight by 10% within 3 months. Extending this period failed to improve these results further...

..The identified role of the hypothalamic leptin-melanocortin pathway as major in monogenic forms of obesity, has led to the recognition of new genes controlling energy homeostasis and new pharmacological targets...

..To test the hypothesis that family dietary coaching would improve nutritional intakes and weight control in free-living (noninstitutionalized) children and parents...

..In modern societies characterized by abundant and accessible foods, restrained eating may become an adaptive behavior to limit weight gain...

..The carbohydrate load did not affect apoB-100 and apoB-48 levels. These findings suggest that postprandial triglyceride metabolism is impaired after a carbohydrate load in normolipidemic massively obese women...

..Rapid weight gain in the first years of life is associated with adult obesity. Whether there are critical windows for this long-term effect is unclear...
