The prevalence of non-communicable diseases and related risk factors in young adults in the Caribbean islands
This scoping review highlights the need for further research surrounding NCD risk and prevalence among young adults across the Caribbean. Generating further data on this topic will aid in developing targeted health-based initiatives to reduce the current and future burden of NCDs across the region
Tackling non-communicable disease risk in young adults across the Caribbean
BOX The prevalence of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) is growing worldwide and is particularly pronounced in the Caribbean
Identifying characteristics of UK university students at risk of developing adverse markers of health and related behaviours across one year at university
Most students identify and remain in less healthful profiles throughout the academic year. Students that transition between profiles are more likely to transition to less healthful profiles. Work to develop bespoke interventions aimed at students with higher-risk demographic characteristics should now be prioritised
University students' everyday negotiations of (un)healthy practices
Characterising the activity, lifestyle behaviours and health outcomes of UK university students
The findings of the current study provide an update on the landscape of UK university students' health and health-related behaviours. Overall, health-related outcomes and behaviours are poor in this population and these data suggest that gender and ethnicity play a role in determining students' health and health-related behaviours. Therefore, these factors should be considered when developing strategies to promote healthy living in the context of…
Perspectives from research and practice
GPS is the most commonly used method to estimate bone load, but there is a lack of research assessing GPS metrics with bone load. Accelerometry and force plates were among the most prevalent methods used to assess external load, but a lack of bone specific measurements were reported by support staff. Further research exploring how external load relates to bone is needed as there is no consensus on which method of external load is best to estimate…
Effects of Morning Vs. Evening exercise on appetite, energy intake, performance and metabolism, in lean males and females
Exercise is an important component of a weight management strategy. However, little is known about whether circadian variations in physiological and behavioural processes can influence the appetite and energy balance responses to exercise performed at different times of the day. This study compared the effects of morning and evening exercise on appetite, post-exercise energy intake, and voluntary performance. In randomised, counterbalanced order,…
Effect of the perception of breakfast consumption on appetite and energy intake in healthy males
The acute effects of morning and evening fasting on energy intake, appetite and glycaemic control in young, healthy males
Nine Months into the Covid-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic is having a sustained negative impact on student mental health and movement behaviour
Mental health and movement behaviour during the Covid-19 pandemic in UK university students
