Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiovascular reactivity and development of preclinical and clinical disease states
Frank A. Treiber,Thomas W. Kamarck,Neil Schneiderman,David Sheffield,Gaston Kapuku,Teletia R. Taylor +5 more
TL;DR: There is reasonable evidence to suggest that cardiovascular reactivity can predict the development of some preclinical states and perhaps even new clinical events in some patients with essential hypertension or coronary heart disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Body-composition measurement in 9–11-y-old children by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, skinfold-thickness measurements, and bioimpedance analysis
TL;DR: Three measures of body composition: dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, skinfold thickness, and bioimpedance analysis are compared, in 9-11-y-old children, to suggest that the methods should not be used interchangeably.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of a brief telephone questionnaire to estimate fruit and vegetable consumption in diverse study populations.
Mary K. Serdula,Ralph J. Coates,Tim Byers,Ali H. Mokdad,S Jewell,Noel Chavez,J Mares-Perlman,P Newcomb,Cheryl Ritenbaugh,Frank A. Treiber +9 more
TL;DR: With the exception of Arizona, mean daily fruit and vegetable intakes measured by the telephone survey were similar to intakes estimated by multiple diet records or recalls and lower than those estimated by extensive food frequency questionnaires.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of Transcendental Meditation® on cardiovascular function at rest and during acute stress in adolescents with high normal blood pressure
TL;DR: The Transcendental Meditation program appears to have a beneficial impact upon CV functioning at rest and during acute laboratory stress in adolescents at-risk for hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI
Obesity related methylation changes in DNA of peripheral blood leukocytes
Xiaoling Wang,Haidong Zhu,Harold Snieder,Harold Snieder,Shaoyong Su,David H. Munn,Gregory A. Harshfield,Bernard L. Maria,Yanbin Dong,Frank A. Treiber,Bernard Gutin,Huidong Shi +11 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that obesity is associated with methylation changes in blood leukocyte DNA, and further studies are warranted to determine the causal direction of this relationship as well as whether suchmethylation changes can lead to immune dysfunction.
