Journal ArticleDOI
Association between measures of insulin sensitivity and circulating levels of interleukin-8, interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha. Effect of weight loss in obese men
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of weight loss on plasma levels of the adipose tissue-derived cytokines interleukin-8, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in abdominal obese men was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heather J. Leidy,Peter M. Clifton,Arne Astrup,Thomas P. Wycherley,Margriet S. Westerterp-Plantenga,Natalie D. Luscombe-Marsh,Stephen C Woods,Richard D. Mattes +7 more
TL;DR: Data suggest that higher-protein diets that contain between 1.2 and 1.6 g protein · kg-1 · d-1 and potentially include meal-specific protein quantities of at least ∼25-30 g protein/meal provide improvements in appetite, body weight management, cardiometabolic risk factors, or all of these health outcomes; however, further strategies to increase dietary compliance with long-term dietary interventions are warranted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Meta-analysis of resting metabolic rate in formerly obese subjects
Arne Astrup,Peter C Gøtzsche,Karen van de Werken,C Ranneries,Søren Toubro,A Raben,Benjamin Buemann +6 more
TL;DR: A meta-analysis based on published studies of RMR in formerly obese persons and matched control subjects and found the existence of a low RMR is likely to contribute to the high rate of weight regain in formerly obesity persons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Caffeine: a double-blind, placebo-controlled study of its thermogenic, metabolic, and cardiovascular effects in healthy volunteers
TL;DR: The results suggest that lactate and triglyceride production and increased vascular smooth muscle tone may be responsible for the major part of the thermogenic effect of caffeine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Obesity and the metabolic syndrome: role of different dietary macronutrient distribution patterns and specific nutritional components on weight loss and maintenance
TL;DR: The scientific evidence for the effects of several dietary manipulations and sustainable strategies for weight loss and body weight stability as well as for treating specific features of the metabolic syndrome are reviewed.
