Journal ArticleDOI
Workplace standing time and the incidence of obesity and type 2 diabetes: a longitudinal study in adults
Jean-Philippe Chaput,Travis J. Saunders,Mark S. Tremblay,Peter T. Katzmarzyk,Angelo Tremblay,Claude Bouchard +5 more
TL;DR: Greater occupational standing time is not sufficient in and of itself to prevent the development of overweight/obesity and impaired glucose tolerance/type 2 diabetes in adults, and future efforts are needed to better understand the potential benefits of higher amounts of standing time throughout the day on the prevention of chronic diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insulin resistance and abdominal adiposity in young men with documented malnutrition during the first year of life
Normand G. Boulé,André J. Tremblay,J Gonzalez-Barranco,Carlos A. Aguilar-Salinas,Juan Carlos López-Alvarenga,Jean-Pierre Després,Claude Bouchard,Francisco J. Gómez-Pérez,L Castillo-Martinez,J.M Rı́os-Torres +9 more
TL;DR: Higher levels of abdominal adipose tissue are more detrimental to insulin sensitivity in previously malnourished individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Single nucleotide polymorphisms in the myostatin (MSTN) and muscle creatine kinase (CKM) genes are not associated with elite endurance performance.
Frank Döring,Simone Onur,C. Kürbitz,Marcel R. Boulay,Louis Pérusse,Tuomo Rankinen,Rainer Rauramaa,Bernd Wolfarth,Claude Bouchard +8 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that common variants of MSTN and CKM genes do not play a role in attaining high‐level endurance performance in Caucasian populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fine mapping of a QTL on chromosome 13 for submaximal exercise capacity training response: the HERITAGE Family Study
Treva Rice,Mark A. Sarzynski,Yun Ju Sung,George Argyropoulos,Adrian M. Stütz,Margarita Teran-Garcia,DC Rao,Claude Bouchard,Tuomo Rankinen +8 more
TL;DR: Results implicate candidate genes on chromosome 13q12 for the ability to improve submaximal exercise capacity in response to regular exercise and suggest potential public health relevance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visceral adipose tissue and low-density lipoprotein particle size in middle-aged versus young men.
Isabelle Lemieux,Agnès Pascot,André Tchernof,Jean Bergeron,Denis Prud'homme,Claude Bouchard,Jean-Pierre Després +6 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that in the absence of an important age-related change in TG levels, age per se is associated with an increased concentration of atherogenic LDL particles rather than a reduction of LDL particle diameter.
