Estimation of daily energy needs with the FAO/WHO/UNU 1985 procedures in adults: comparison to whole-body indirect calorimetry measurements
TL;DR: The FAO/WHO/UNU (1985) procedures may overestimate daily energy needs, particularly in sedentary individuals, however, DRI (2002) are probably more adapted to estimate real dailyEnergy needs in seditary and active subjects in comparison to the FAO /WHO/ UNU ( 1985) procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fasting insulin levels influence plasma leptin levels independently from the contribution of adiposity: evidence from both a cross-sectional and an intervention study.

TL;DR: In a population characterized by a wide range of adiposity hyperinsulinemia has the potential to modulate leptin levels beyond what can be explained by total adiposity, and this relation also seems to exist in a dynamic setting during weight loss.
Journal ArticleDOI
Familial aggregation in physical fitness, coronary heart disease risk factors, and pulmonary function measurements.
Louis Pérusse,C. Leblanc,Angelo Tremblay,Claude Allard,Germain Thériault,Fernand Landry,Jean Talbot,Claude Bouchard +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that heredity and common lifestyle shared by members of nuclear families are responsible for the familial aggregation of physical fitness, coronary heart disease risk factors, and pulmonary functions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Familial aggregation of exercise heart rate and blood pressure in response to 20 weeks of endurance training: the HERITAGE family study.
Ping An,Louis Pérusse,Tuomo Rankinen,Ingrid B. Borecki,Jacques Gagnon,Arthur S. Leon,James S. Skinner,Jack H. Wilmore,Claude Bouchard,D. C. Rao +9 more
TL;DR: HR and SBP training responses during submaximal exercise in Whites were influenced by a modest, but significant, familial component, in contrast to substantial familial effects previously reported for these variables measured at baseline.
