Since the intrapleural gradient varies with the height of the subject, it was decided to compare regional particle deposition in tall, short, and obese subjects to ascertain whether it was influenced by height and weight. Surprisingly, deposition ...

متن کاملAssociation of the Composite Inflammatory Biomarker GlycA, with Exercise-Induced Changes in Body Habitus in Men and Women with Prediabetes
GlycA is a new composite measure of systemic inflammation and a predictor of many inflammatory diseases. GlycA is the nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy-derived signal arising from glucosamine residues on acute-phase proteins. This study aimed to evaluate how exercise-based lifestyle interventions modulate GlycA in persons at risk for type 2 diabetes. GlycA, fitness, and body habitus were ...
