Associations between maternal and infant body composition, feeding practices, and perceived infant eating behaviour in Samoan mother–infant dyads aged 1–4 months
Maternal perception of infant appetite appears to be influenced partially by maternal and infant body composition and breastfeeding patterns in our sample, highlighting potential points of intervention to promote recommended breastfeeding practices
Indication of mixed glucose and fatty acid use by inferred brown adipose tissue activity in Samoans
OBJECTIVES: Despite the growing rates of global obesity and the known positive associations between brown adipose tissue (BAT) and cardiovascular health, little is known about the metabolic effects of BAT activity in Samoans, a population at high risk of obesity and type II diabetes. Here we assessed the potential effects of inferred BAT activity on metabolic health markers in Samoan adults exposed to mild cold. METHODS: Using point-of-care finge…
