Gender Differences in the Association between Sleep Duration and Body Composition: The Cardia Study
Marie-Pierre St-Onge,Suzanne E. Perumean-Chaney,Renee A. Desmond,Cora E. Lewis,Lijing L. Yan,Lijing L. Yan,Sharina D. Person,David B. Allison +7 more
TL;DR: The relationship between self-reported sleep duration and body composition may be stronger in women than in men, and this is consistent with previous findings that sleep is associated with BMI and other body composition variables.
Journal ArticleDOI
Favourable metabolic effects of a eucaloric lower-carbohydrate diet in women with PCOS
Barbara A. Gower,Paula C. Chandler-Laney,Fernando Ovalle,Laura Lee Goree,Ricardo Azziz,Renee A. Desmond,Wesley M. Granger,Amy M. Goss,G. Wright Bates +8 more
TL;DR: Whether a modest reduction in dietary carbohydrate (CHO) content affects β‐cell responsiveness, serum testosterone concentration and insulin sensitivity in women with PCOS is determined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of Extracellular Matrix Metalloprotease Inducer in Laryngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Eben L. Rosenthal,Satya Shreenivas,Glenn E. Peters,William E. Grizzle,Renee A. Desmond,Candece L. Gladson +5 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that EMMPRIN is overexpressed in laryngeal cancer because it is thought to be induced by tumor cell derived extracellular matrix metalloprotease inducer in surrounding fibroblasts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficacy of Conversion From Bedtime NPH Insulin Injection to Once- or Twice-Daily Injections of Insulin Glargine in Type 1 Diabetic Patients Using Basal/Bolus Therapy
TL;DR: This study showed the expected fewer nocturnal hypoglycemic events, but the primary outcome was an improvement in glycemic control based on the HbA1c values.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of weight loss on changes in insulin sensitivity and lipid concentrations in premenopausal African American and white women
TL;DR: With weight loss, moderately overweight African American and white women experienced significant improvements in S(i) and lipids, and the beneficial effects of weight loss did not differ with race and could not be attributed to a specific body fat depot.
