Independent of age, sex, energy intake, and waist circumference z-score, sedentary behavior and LPA were associated with HDL-C (β = −0.23, 95% CI −0.42 to −0.04, P = 0.020; β = 0.20, 95% CI 0.14 to 0.39, P = 0.036, respectively). The strength of the associations remained after additionally adjusting for MVPA (sedentary behavior: β = −0.22, 95% CI −0.44 to 0.006, P = 0.056; LPA: β = 0.19, 95% CI −0.005 to 0.38, P = 0.056, respectively). Conclusion: Substituting at least LPA for sedentary time may contribute to the development of healthy HDL-C levels among overweight and obese children, independent of their adiposity. Comprehensive prevention and treatment strategies to improve plasma HDL-C among overweight and obese children should target reductions in total sedentary time and promote the benefits of LPA, in addition to promoting healthy levels of adiposity, healthy dietary behaviors, and MVPA.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 14:51:53 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:25212 Wed 11 Apr 2018 13:57:57 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:22224 Wed 11 Apr 2018 13:02:09 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:11857 Wed 11 Apr 2018 12:22:08 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:29551 p=0.06), WC (r = −0.118, p < 0.01) and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR; r = −0.149, p < 0.001). Stratification of data by sex (females, n = 349; males, n = 271) indicated that these associations were sex-specific. Females displayed an inverse association between the omega-3 index and BMI (r = −0.146, p < 0.01) and WC (r = −0.125, p < 0.05). In contrast, no significant association between the omega-3 index and anthropometric measures was detected in males. After correcting for the potentially confounding effects of age, household income, fish oil supplement status, daily dietary energy intake and total physical activity times, the omega-3 index was inversely associated with BMI and WC in females but not males. Conclusions: Omega-3 status was associated with weight status, particularly in older women but not in men. These results suggest the need for sex-based intervention trials to examine the role of dietary intake and/or supplementation of LCn-3PUFA in weight management of older adults.]]> Wed 09 Mar 2022 16:02:27 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:26846 Wed 08 Jan 2020 11:29:45 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:13784 Wed 08 Jan 2020 11:29:43 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:31963 P < 0.001).

This paper presents baseline findings from a pilot study that aimed to implement RESHAPE at three mine sites in NSW, Australia, and investigates the issue of overweight and obesity in the coal mining industry. Across three mine sites, 949 coal miners were examined cross-sectionally on a range of workplace, wellness, health, diet, and exercise factors using a paper-based survey. This was a predominantly male sample (90.4%) with the majority (59.2%) of participants aged 25-44 years. Selfreported height and weight measures indicated that less than 20 percent (18.9%) of participants were in a healthy BMI range, while there were effectively equal numbers of overweight (40.9%) and obese (39.1%) participants. Only 3.5% of participants met the daily recommendation for vegetables (5 serves) and shift-workers had greater association with elevated BMI compared to non-shift workers (B = 1.21, 95% CI: 0.23, 2.20, p = 0.016). Poor nutrition is likely to be a key component in elevated levels of overweight and obesity within this industry, with workplace factors compounding challenges workers face in implementing health behavior change. Future studies would benefit from assessing diet and physical activity knowledge in relation to recommendations and serving sizes.]]> Tue 03 Aug 2021 18:29:05 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:18 5 kg over 5 years) were highest for women who quit smoking (odds ratio = 2.94; 95% confidence interval, 2.17, 3.96). There were also independent relationships between the odds of gaining > 5 kg and lower levels of habitual physical activity, more time spent sitting, energy intake (but only in women with BMI > 25 at baseline), menopause transition, and hysterectomy. Discussion: The average weight gain equates with an energy imbalance of only about 10 kcal or 40 kJ per day, which suggests that small sustained changes in the modifiable behavioral variables could prevent further weight gain.]]> Thu 25 Jul 2013 09:10:09 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:51242 Thu 25 Jan 2024 15:26:55 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:29704 P > 0.05), and three studies showed no improvements in fat mass, fat volume, or abdominal fat distribution (P > 0.05). Four studies included measurements of inflammatory markers, with three of these finding resveratrol supplementation to have a significant positive effect (P > 0.05). Conclusion: Based on the included studies, there is currently insufficient evidence to support the recommendation of resveratrol supplements in management of obesity. However, there were significant but not entirely consistent anti-inflammatory effects after resveratrol supplementation in overweight and obese individuals.]]> Thu 24 Mar 2022 11:33:10 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:35110 Pdifference < .001).

We observed modification of the smoking-attributable burden by alcohol consumption and educational attainment, and modification of the obesity-attributable burden by age group and birthplace. Conclusions: We produced up-to-date estimates of the future CRC burden attributed to modifiable behaviors. We revealed novel differences between men and women, and other high–CRC burden subgroups that could potentially benefit most from programs that support behavioral change and early detection.]]> Thu 24 Mar 2022 11:32:50 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:35785 Thu 21 Nov 2019 17:01:58 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:13981 Thu 20 Sep 2018 15:01:52 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:37424 Thu 12 Nov 2020 18:13:51 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:11862 Thu 12 Apr 2018 14:12:02 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:23923 Thu 03 Feb 2022 12:19:47 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:9444 Sat 24 Mar 2018 10:44:31 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:9445 Sat 24 Mar 2018 10:44:30 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:8014 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:42:36 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:8407 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:40:57 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:14789 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:26:27 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:14149 0.05), high meat consumption (RR: 2.40 95%CI 1.00 to 5.60, p0.05), eating out (OR: 12.0 95%CI 7.7 to 18.7, p0.05), fast food intake (OR: 1.50 95%CI 1.12 to 2.02, p0.05)].

Median AHI progressively increased from 1992-1995 to 2004-2007 (from 65 events/h to 143 events/h, P < 0001), indicating increasing disease severity. Over the same period, for every unit increase in BMI, AHI increased by 5 5 events/h for men and by 2 8 events/h for women. About 80% of the observed variance in AHI over this period was attributable to variance in BMI. Conclusion: There is a continuing trend towards increasing body weight and BMI in people undergoing diagnostic sleep studies. Our data do not support the hypothesis that increased accessibility to diagnostic services and increased awareness of sleep disorders are resulting in a decline in disease severity. These findings are consistent with the premise that worsening severity in sleep-disordered breathing is primarily attributable to increasing obesity.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:14:14 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:10604 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:13:50 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:11316 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:12:36 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:18147 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:04:42 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:17461 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:04:06 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:5402 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:43:56 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:27118 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:41:35 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:28500 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:29:16 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:22753 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:14:15 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:53435 Mon 27 Nov 2023 11:47:52 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:44809 2 times/week but 1 but ≤2 times/week (6·8 kg (95 % CI 1·8, 11·8); 2·1 kg/m2 (95 % CI 0·3, 4·0) and 6·0 cm (95 % CI 1·7, 10·4)).
