Overweight and obesity in early childhood and obesity at 10 years of age: a comparison of World Health Organization definitions

Author(s): Van Hulst A; Zheng S; Argiropoulos N; Ybarra M; Ball GDC; Kakinami L;

The World Health Organization recommends using + 2 SD of body mass index z-score (zBMI) to define overweight/obesity (OWO) in children ages 2 to 5 years whereas + 1 SD is used as cut-point from 5 years onwards. Empirical evidence for using different cut-poi...

The Awakening Brain is Characterized by a Widespread and Spatiotemporally Heterogeneous Increase in High Frequencies

Author(s): Avigdor T; Ren G; Abdallah C; Dubeau F; Grova C; Frauscher B;

Morning awakening is part of everyday life. Surprisingly, information remains scarce on its underlying neurophysiological correlates. Here simultaneous polysomnography and stereo-electroencephalography recordings from 18 patients are used to assess the spec...

Sex-specific effects of intensity and dose of physical activity on BOLD-fMRI cerebrovascular reactivity and cerebral pulsatility

Author(s): Potvin-Jutras Z; Intzandt B; Mohammadi H; Liu P; Chen JJ; Gauthier CJ;

Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) and cerebral pulsatility (CP) are important indicators of cerebrovascular health, which are associated with physical activity (PA). While sex differences influence the impact of PA on cerebrovascular health, sex-specific eff...

Combating childhood overweight and obesity: The role of Olympic Movement and bodily movement

Author(s): Tam BT; Wan K; Santosa S; Cai Z;

With over 420 million children (aged 0-19 years) worldwide living with overweight or obesity, the "obesity epidemic" or "globesity" is a defining public health challenge of this generation. While significant efforts have been made to address...

Sex differences in the metabolism of glucose and fatty acids by adipose tissue and skeletal muscle in humans

Author(s): Costa DN; Santosa S; Jensen MD;

Adult males and females have markedly different body composition, energy expenditure, and have different degrees of risk for metabolic diseases. A major aspect of metabolic regulation involves the appropriate storage and disposal of glucose and fatty acids....

Dialogue mechanisms between astrocytic and neuronal networks: A whole-brain modelling approach

Author(s): Ali OBK; Vidal A; Grova C; Benali H;

Astrocytes critically shape whole-brain structure and function by forming extensive gap junctional networks that intimately and actively interact with neurons. Despite their importance, existing computational models of whole-brain activity ignore the roles ...

Description:

Morning awakening is part of everyday life. Surprisingly, information remains scarce on its underlying neurophysiological correlates. Here simultaneous polysomnography and stereo-electroencephalography recordings from 18 patients are used to assess the spectral and connectivity content of the process of awakening at a local level 15 min before and after the awakening. Awakenings from non-rapid eye movement sleep are accompanied by a widespread increase in ripple (>80 Hz) power in the fronto-temporal and parieto-insular regions, with connectivity showing an almost exclusive increase in the ripple band in the somatomotor, default, dorsal attention, and frontoparietal networks. Awakenings from rapid eye movement sleep are characterized by a widespread and almost exclusive increase in the ripple band in all available brain lobes, and connectivity increases mainly in the low ripple band in the limbic system as well as the default, dorsal attention, somatomotor, and frontoparietal networks.
