Food Availability, Physical Activity and Body Weight
During the last decades our knowledge about neuroendocrine control of energy balance has increased tremendously. Numerous neuropeptides and hormones with pronounced effects on feeding and body weight have been identified and put into schemes as “anorexic” or “orexigenic” signals. So far this has not rendered new insights into how to explain or treat human pathology such as obesity or anorexia n...

To investigate the association between recreational physical activity and endometrial cancer risk, a population-based case-control study was conducted in Washington State. The study included 822 incident cases of endometrial cancer diagnosed between 1985 and 1991 and 1,111 randomly selected population-based controls. Detailed information on recreational physical activities as well as other endo...
متن کاملPrediagnosis body mass index, physical activity, and mortality in endometrial cancer patients.
Background Higher body mass index (BMI) and inactivity have been associated with a higher risk of developing endometrial cancer, but the impact on endometrial cancer survival is unclear. Methods Among incident endometrial cancer case subjects in the National Institutes of Health-AARP Diet and Health Study, we examined associations of prediagnosis BMI (n = 1400) and physical activity (n = 875) w...
متن کاملDiet, body size, physical activity, and the risk of endometrial cancer.
Endometrial cancer is associated with increased weight and body size, diabetes, and other conditions that may result from an excess in calories or lack of physical activity. Although a few studies have explored the effect of dietary constituents on the risk of endometrial cancer, the nature of the joint association of these constituents and obesity, energy intake, or energy expenditure with ris...
متن کاملRe: Prediagnosis body mass index, physical activity, and mortality in endometrial cancer patients.
Body mass index (BMI) is an established risk factor for endometrial cancer, a hazard that is exponential with increasing BMI (1), and when risk estimates are standardized, endometrial cancer is ranked highest among obesity-associated cancers in women (2). Therefore, the findings from Arem and colleagues (3), using the large National Institute of Health–AARP Diet and Health Study, of the adverse...
