Multi-ancestry genome-wide gene-sleep interactions identify novel loci for blood pressure.

Heming Wang, +140 more
- 15 Apr 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed genome-wide gene by short or long sleep duration interaction analyses on four BP traits across five ancestry groups in two stages using 2 degree of freedom (df) joint test followed by 1df test of interaction effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physical activity, aerobic fitness, and seven-year changes in adiposity in the Canadian population.

TL;DR: Physical activity was not predictive of 7-y changes in indicators of adiposity in this sample and ANCOVA and multiple regression analyses indicated that neither baseline physical activity levels, intensity, physical activity change categories, nor aerobic fitness levels were significant predictors of changes in adiposity.
Journal Article

HLA system, body fat and fat distribution in children and adults.

TL;DR: It was concluded that no consistent pattern of association emerged between genotypes or alleles of the HLA system and percent body fat, subcutaneous fat or fat distribution in children and adults of both sexes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetics, physical activity, fitness and health: what does the future hold?

TL;DR: 26. Varo JJ, Martinez-Gonzalez MA, de Irala-Estevez J, Kearney J, Gibney M and Martinez AJ (2003) Distribution and determinants of sedentary lifestyles in the European Union.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relationship between changes in physical activity and plasma insulin during a 2.5-year follow-up study

TL;DR: It is suggested that in middle-aged men, a reduction in physical activity increases the risk for increased plasma insulin independently of alcohol intake and changes in body weight.
