Associations of obesity phenotypes with weight change, cardiometabolic benefits, and type 2 diabetes incidence during a lifestyle intervention: results from the PREVIEW study (2023)
Journal Article
Zhu, R., Huttunen-Lenz, M., Stratton, G., Handjieva-Darlenska, T., Handjiev, S., Sundvall, J., …Raben, A. (2023). Associations of obesity phenotypes with weight change, cardiometabolic benefits, and type 2 diabetes incidence during a lifestyle intervention: results from the PREVIEW study. International Journal of Obesity, 47(9), 833–840. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41366-023-01328-y

Background/Objectives Some individuals with overweight/obesity may be relatively metabolically healthy (MHO) and have a lower risk of cardiovascular disease than those with metabolically unhealthy overweight/obesity (MUO). We aimed to compare change...

Longitudinal Associations of Dietary Sugars and Glycaemic Index with Indices of Glucose Metabolism and Body Fatness during 3-Year Weight Loss Maintenance: A PREVIEW Sub-Study (2023)
Journal Article
Della Corte, K., Jalo, E., Kaartinen, N. E., Simpson, L., Taylor, M. A., Muirhead, R., …Brand-Miller, J. (2023). Longitudinal Associations of Dietary Sugars and Glycaemic Index with Indices of Glucose Metabolism and Body Fatness during 3-Year Weight Loss Maintenance: A PREVIEW Sub-Study. Nutrients, 15(9), Article 2083. https://doi.org/10.3390/nu15092083

Background: Dietary sugars are often linked to the development of overweight and type 2 diabetes (T2D) but inconsistencies remain. Objective: We investigated associations of added, free, and total sugars, and glycaemic index (GI) with indices of gluc...

The impact of physical inactivity on glucose homeostasis when diet is adjusted to maintain energy balance in healthy, young males (2023)
Journal Article
Trim, W. V., Walhin, J. P., Koumanov, F., Turner, J. E., Shur, N. F., Simpson, E. J., …Thompson, D. (2023). The impact of physical inactivity on glucose homeostasis when diet is adjusted to maintain energy balance in healthy, young males. Clinical Nutrition, 42(4), 532-540. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.clnu.2023.02.006

Background & aims: It is unclear if dietary adjustments to maintain energy balance during reduced physical activity can offset inactivity-induced reductions in insulin sensitivity and glucose disposal to produce normal daily glucose concentrations an...

Cocoa Flavanol Supplementation and the Effect on Insulin Resistance in Females Who Are Overweight or Obese: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial (2023)
Journal Article
Simpson, E. J., Mendis, B., Dunlop, M., Schroeter, H., Kwik-Uribe, C., & Macdonald, I. A. (2023). Cocoa Flavanol Supplementation and the Effect on Insulin Resistance in Females Who Are Overweight or Obese: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial. Nutrients, 15(3), Article 565. https://doi.org/10.3390/nu15030565

There is interest in the impact that dietary interventions can have on preventing the transition from insulin resistance to type 2 diabetes, including a suggestion that the bioactive components of cocoa may enhance fasting insulin sensitivity. Howeve... Read More about Cocoa Flavanol Supplementation and the Effect on Insulin Resistance in Females Who Are Overweight or Obese: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial.

Liver glycogen stores via 13C magnetic resonance spectroscopy in healthy children: randomized, controlled study (2023)
Journal Article
Horstman, A. M., Bawden, S. J., Spicer, A., Darwish, N., Goyer, A., Egli, L., …Simpson, E. J. (2023). Liver glycogen stores via 13C magnetic resonance spectroscopy in healthy children: randomized, controlled study. American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 117(4), 709-716. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ajcnut.2023.01.014

Background: Owing to its role in glucose homeostasis, liver glycogen concentration ([LGly]) can be a marker of altered metabolism seen in disorders that impact the health of children. However, there is a paucity of normative data for this measure in... Read More about Liver glycogen stores via 13C magnetic resonance spectroscopy in healthy children: randomized, controlled study.
