Journal Article

Social class interacts with the association between macronutrient intake and subcutaneous fat.

TL;DR: The results emphasize the importance of including demographic variables like social status in surveys dealing with the relationships between adiposity and dietary habits, as well as the need to clarify independent correlations of body fatness with educational level, dietary habits and other behavioural factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heterogeneous glycaemic and insulinaemic responses to oral glucose in non-diabetic men: interactions between duration of obesity, body fat distribution and family history of diabetes mellitus.

TL;DR: It is suggested that in men with alterations of glucose-insulin homeostasis, the relationship of body fat distribution to glucose tolerance and plasma insulin levels is different in those with no family history of diabetes than in subjects with a positive familyHistory of diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influences of the phosphatidylcholine transfer protein gene variants on the LDL peak particle size

TL;DR: PCTP gene variants are associated with LDL-PPD, a small, dense LDL phenotype associated with an increased cardiovascular disease risk found on a genome-wide scan performed on 236 nuclear families of the Quebec Family Study.
Journal ArticleDOI

The RsaI polymorphism in the alpha-fibrinogen gene and response of plasma fibrinogen to physical training--a controlled randomised clinical trial in men.

TL;DR: The role of the RsaI polymorphism in determining the response of fibrinogen to long-term regular exercise is investigated and offers a new aspect of beneficial effects of regular physical exercise on risk factors for coronary heart disease.
