Evaluation of an FFQ to assess total energy and nutrient intakes in severely obese pregnant women
Objective FFQ are popular instruments for assessing dietary intakes in epidemiological studies but have not been validated for use in severely obese pregnancy. The aim of the present study was to compare nutrient intakes assessed by an FFQ with those obtained from a food diary among severely obese pregnant women. Design Comparison of an FFQ containing 170 food items and a food diary for 4 d (three weekdays and one weekend day); absolute agreement…
Leptin Levels and Depressive Symptoms in People With Type 2 Diabetes
OBJECTIVE: Depression in Type 2 diabetes is associated with obesity, cardiovascular disease, and mortality. Leptin is a plausible mediating factor because it has been related to obesity, depression, and cardiovascular disease in nondiabetic populations. We sought to assess whether leptin is related to depressive symptoms in people with Type 2 diabetes. METHODS: One thousand fifty-seven subjects (48.5% women, mean [standard deviation] age = 67.9 […

An Overview of the Implications of Global Change for Natural and Managed Terrestrial Ecosystems
Global change is the net effect of individual and interactive effects of changes in land use, atmospheric composition, biological diversity, and climate.A synthesis of the past six years' activities of the Global Change and Terrestrial Ecosystems project of the IGBP (International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme) deals with global change effects as ecosystem responses and living with global change.Ecosystem responses are considered in terms of chan…
