“…B) curves exhibited an increased rate of appearance within 3 and 6 h. Finally, increasing slopes detected from 6 to 48 h explain a deeper microbiota catabolism. In particular, metabolites excreted during these excretion periods could be associated with (i) a long transient time in the large intestine, according to normal metabolism of dietary fiber‐rich products , which caused a slower release of less accessible fiber‐linked phenolics; (ii) the microbial enzymatic activity needed to convert the released phenolic compounds into lower molecular weight molecules (as vanillic acid, hydroxybenzoic acid (Fig. C and D), 3‐(phenyl)propionic acid (Supporting Information Fig.…”

“…After an overnight fast, anthropometric measurements were evaluated for each study participant by the same examiner. The height was evaluated by using an extensometer and body weight, BMI, fat mass, body fat percentage, and skeletal muscle mass were measured by bio-impedance analysis using Inbody 370 (Biospace, Seoul, Korea) (Cho et al 2013). Waist circumference was measured at the abdominal waist (smallest horizontal circumference above the umbilicus and below the xiphoid process), and hip circumference was measured at hips (horizontal, at maximal protrusion of gluteus maximus) as described in the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) Guidelines (Pollock et al 2000).…”

The novel myokine irisin has been reported as a therapeutic target for metabolic disease. The objective of this study is to reveal the effects of aerobic training (AT) and resistance training (RT) on circulating irisin levels and their associations with change of body composition in overweight/obese adults. Twenty eight overweight/obese adults (BMI>23 kg/m2) were included in this study and compared before and after 8 weeks of exercise program (60 min/day, 5 times in a week). The subjects, in both aerobic and resistance training, showed significant improvement in anthropometric parameters and exercise capacities including maximal oxygen uptake and muscle strength. Interestingly, the circulating irisin was significantly increased in resistance training group (p=0.002) but not in aerobic training (p=0.426) compared to control group. In addition, we found the positive correlation between change of the circulating irisin and muscle mass (r=0.432, p=0.022) and the negative correlation between change of the circulating irisin and fat mass (r=−0.407, p=0.031). In the present pilot study, we found that circulating irisin level was increased by 8 weeks of resistance training in overweight/obese adults, suggesting that resistance training could be the efficient exercise type in overweight/obese considering positive change of body composition concomitant with increase of irisin levels.

“…Psychological stress, such as anxiety, irritability, infrequent parental interaction, and stressful life events, are well-known factors associated with childhood constipation [2,7,36]. Previous studies investigating the association between childhood constipation and psychological stress were mostly small-scale studies and cross-sectional or retrospective in nature [2].…”

Abstract Background We aimed to clarify the predisposing factors for adolescent constipation in a longitudinal study, because while factors associated with childhood constipation have been reported, prospective studies on the incidence of constipation are lacking. Methods We enrolled 5,540 adolescents aged 12 to 13 years from the Toyama Birth Cohort Study—a community-based prospective study examining children’s health. The incidence of constipation, defined as bowel movement frequency of less than once every 2 days, was surveyed during the three-year period from baseline (grade 4) to follow-up (grade 7). Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to explore the association between the incidence of adolescent constipation and their lifestyle variables. Results A total of 261 adolescents (4.7%) developed constipation during the three-year period. Female sex (odds ratio [OR] = 2.62,) overweight (OR = 0.60), and infrequent intake of fruits (OR = 1.50) at baseline were associated with the incidence of constipation. Furthermore, factors related to lifestyle changes and psychological status such as skipping breakfast (OR = 1.73), becoming physically inactive (OR = 1.55), and being persistently irritated (OR = 1.80) were significantly associated with the incidence of constipation. Conclusion Our prospective study demonstrated that female sex, insufficient fruit intake, and deteriorating lifestyles such as skipping breakfast and becoming inactive during the 3-year period were associated with the incidence of adolescent constipation. Beyond anecdotal, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is recommended to reduce the incidence of adolescent constipation.

Colon transit time according to physical activity and characteristics in South Korean adults

Abstract: The subjects showed significant gender differences in the TCTT, right CTT, and recto-sigmoid CTT. Furthermore, the intake of the fiber and water contributed to the CTT.
