The aim of this review is to provide an overview of the best available evidence in relation to 'what works' in increasing the percentage of people aged 65 and over with high level care needs who are cared for at home. This is the aim of one of the Scottish Government's 45 indicators ...
Follow-up analyses of these loci provided strong evidence for IRS1 to be involved in tissue-specific body fat storage and subsequent effects on cardiometabolic disease, such as type 2 diabetes (T2D) and coronary artery disease (CAD)13. While little is known about SPRY2, the Spry1 homolog in...

The combined 3 cycles of NHANES 1999-2004 yielded a sample size of 31126. In data analysis, indivi- duals who reported their race-ethnicity as "Other" were excluded (n = 884). This "Other" category represented people with mixed races and individuals belonging to race-ethnicities other than...
To increase our understanding of the genetic basis of adiposity and its links to cardiometabolic disease risk, we conducted a genome-wide association meta-analysis of body fat percentage (BF%) in up to 100,716 individuals. Twelve loci reached genome-wide
Currently, the increasing prevalence of chronic metabolic disorders, with overweight, obesity, and diabetes as primary factors, has become a significant public health concern in both developed and developing countries [1,2,3]. Obesity, recognized for its complexity and myriad associated complications, ...
Pacific Island people have one of the lowest rates of non-traumatic hip fracture in the world, further indicating good bone density and mass [17]. Pre- and post-menopausal Pacific Island women have a significantly higher bone mineral content (BMC) of the distal radius and ulna than European ...
