Physical activity energy expenditure of adolescents in India.
Kirsten Corder,Soren Brage,Antony Wright,Ambady Ramachandran,Chamukuttan Snehalatha,Annasami Yamuna,Nicholas J. Wareham,Ulf Ekelund +7 more
TL;DR: Physical activity has rarely been quantified in adolescent populations undergoing economic transition; therefore relationships with disease still remain uncertain and further research is necessary to investigate the association between PA and health outcomes in Indian adolescents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Objectively measured sedentary time, physical activity and kidney function in people with recently diagnosed Type 2 diabetes: a prospective cohort analysis
TL;DR: To assess the prospective association between objectively measured physical activity and kidney function over 4 years in people with Type 2 diabetes, an apples-to- apples comparison study is conducted.
Journal ArticleDOI
In vivo receptor characterization of neuropeptide Y-induced effects in consecutive vascular sections of cat skeletal muscle.
Ulf Ekelund,David Erlinge +1 more
TL;DR: The present findings indicate that the vasconstrictor response to NPY in skeletal muscle is preferentially located in the small arterioles and mediated via the Y1 receptor and, further, that Y2 and Y3 receptors do not play a significant role in the vasoconstrictors response toNPY in cat skeletal muscle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Xanne Janssen,Dylan P. Cliff,John J. Reilly,Trina Hinkley,Rachel A. Jones,Marijka Batterham,Ulf Ekelund,Soren Brage,Anthony D. Okely +8 more
