Sedentary behavior is an independent risk factor for the metabolic syndrome, but the role of sedentary behavior in the development of gestational diabetes is unclear.This study tested the hypothesis that less sedentary behavior is related to better insulin sensitivity, lipid and cytokine profile in obese pregnant women.A longitudinal observational study with 46 overweight and obese pregnant women...
Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva is a rare genetic disorder characterized by progressive heterotopic ossification. FOP patients develop soft tissue lumps as a result of inflammation-induced flare-ups which leads to the irreversible replacement of skeletal muscle tissue with bone tissue. Classical FOP patients possess a mutation (c.617G>A; R206H) in the ACVR1-encoding gene which leads to dysregulated...
Cytokines contribute to insulin resistance in pregnancy, but the role of distinct cytokines is not fully understood.To study whether cytokines produced by tissues other than skeletal muscle are associated with glucose and insulin metabolism activity in overweight and obese women and to study whether these associations can be modified by physical activity.A longitudinal study with 44 overweight and...
