Mapping brain activity of gut-brain signaling to appetite and satiety in healthy adults: A systematic review and functional neuroimaging meta-analysis (2022)
Journal Article
Althubeati, S., Avery, A., Tench, C., Lobo, D. N., Salter, A., & Eldeghaidy, S. (2022). Mapping brain activity of gut-brain signaling to appetite and satiety in healthy adults: A systematic review and functional neuroimaging meta-analysis. Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews, 136, Article 104603. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neubiorev.2022.104603

Understanding how neurohormonal gut-brain signaling regulates appetite and satiety is vital for the development of therapies for obesity and altered eating behavior. However, reported brain areas associated with appetite or satiety regulators show in...

A randomized, controlled, double-blind crossover study on the effects of isoeffective and isovolumetric intravenous crystalloid and gelatin on blood volume, and renal and cardiac hemodynamics (2019)
Journal Article
Bradley, C. R., Bragg, D. D., Cox, E. F., El-Sharkawy, A. M., Buchanan, C. E., Chowdhury, A. H., Macdonald, I. A., Francis, S. T., & Lobo, D. N. (2020). A randomized, controlled, double-blind crossover study on the effects of isoeffective and isovolumetric intravenous crystalloid and gelatin on blood volume, and renal and cardiac hemodynamics. Clinical Nutrition, 39(7), 2070-2079. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.clnu.2019.09.011

Background & aims
Blood volume expanding properties of colloids are superior to crystalloids. In addition to oncotic/osmotic properties, the electrolyte composition of infusions may have important effects on visceral perfusion, with infusions contai...

Computer Tomography-Based Psoas Skeletal Muscle Area and Radiodensity are Poor Sentinels for Whole L3 Skeletal Muscle Values (2019)
Journal Article
Rollins, K. E., Gopinath, A., Awwad, A., Macdonald, I. A., & Lobo, D. N. (2020). Computer Tomography-Based Psoas Skeletal Muscle Area and Radiodensity are Poor Sentinels for Whole L3 Skeletal Muscle Values. Clinical Nutrition, 39(7), 2227-2232. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.clnu.2019.10.003

Background and aims
Computed tomography (CT)-based measurement of skeletal muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) and Hounsfield unit (HU) radiodensity are used to assess the presence of sarcopenia and myosteatosis, respectively. The validated CT-based t... Read More about Computer Tomography-Based Psoas Skeletal Muscle Area and Radiodensity are Poor Sentinels for Whole L3 Skeletal Muscle Values.
