Alle claims in dit boek zijn gebaseerd op wetenschappelijke studies. Bij elke claim is dan ook een verwijzing geplaatst naar het corresponderende wetenschappelijke artikel. Deze “verwijzingen” worden aangegeven met kleine cijfertjes in de tekst in mijn boek. Om het eenvoudiger te maken om deze verwijzingen terug te vinden wordt in dit referentie hoofdstuk dezelfde hoofdstukstructuur als in het boek aangehouden.

- The etiologic basis for the classification of obesity
From this information, a classification of obesities is proposed: 1) Hypothalamic, 2) Bulimic, 3) Digestive, 4) Hyperinsulinemic, 5) Hypothermogenic, 6) Hypothyroid, and 7) Set point. These conditions should not be treated therapeutically in the same way, as the causes of development of the illness are not equal. - Hypothyroidism: common complaints, perplexing diagnosis
The disease affects every major organ system and metabolic process. The diagnosis of primary hypothyroidism can be perplexing to the clinician because of its insidious onset and wide array of nonspecific manifestations. Complaints of fatigue, muscle weakness, lethargy, and weight gain are often at first attributed to emotional or other health problems - Diagnosing and treating hypothyroidism
Hypothyroidism is a common endocrine disorder affecting 1.4% to 2.0% of women and 0.1% to 0.2% of men. The prevalence of both overt and subclinical hypothyroidism increases with age, affecting 5% to 10% of women over age 50 and 1.25% of men over age 60, with an increasing incidence in women ages 40 to 50. Typical symptoms are consistent with declining metabolic functions and range from vague complaints of fatigue in subclinical deficiency to overt clinical symptoms involving changes in mentation and memory, lethargy, weight gain, cold intolerance, constipation - Diagnosing and treating hypothyroidism

Typical symptoms are consistent with declining metabolic functions and range from vague complaints of fatigue in subclinical deficiency to overt clinical symptoms involving changes in mentation and memory, lethargy, weight gain, cold intolerance, constipation, and goitrous enlargement of the thyroid gland. - The treatment of obesity-related hypertension
Extensive epidemiological studies have demonstrated a relation between the body weight rate and the blood pressure, indicating obesity as one of the factors in hypertension developm - Hypertension in obese patients: a dysmetabolic hypertension with a possible adipocyte dysfunction mechanism
Large longitudinal studies showed the epidemiological link between obesity and hypertension. During last years, multiple possible mechanisms involved in this association were identified. Adipose tissue has an important role in the genesis of hypertension in obese patients through several pathways: insulin resistance, leptin, renin-angiotensin-aldosteron system and mediators of inflammation (TNF-alpha, IL-6). Adipocyte may be the major player in the development of insulin resistance and hypertension, elements of the metabolic syndrome, responsible for the cardiovascular complications - Metabolic syndrome and small dense LDL-cholesterol
Recently, small dense low-density lipoprotein (sd-LDL) has been highlighted as a new risk factor for CHD. Sd-LDL is also closely associated with insulin resistance and hypertriglyceridemia, suggesting a high prevalence of these atherogenic particles in metabolic syndrome - The metabolic syndrome: is this diagnosis necessary?
The more insulin-resistant a person, the more likely that he or she will develop some degree of glucose intolerance, high triacylglycerol and low HDL concentrations, essential hypertension, and procoagulant and proinflammatory states, all of which increase the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). - Metabolic syndrome
About 20 years ago, Reaven presented the concept that a series of related factors such as hyperinsulinemia, hypertension, low high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol levels, and hypertriglyceridemia tended to co-occur in the same individual and that this risk-factor clustering and its association with insulin resistance might be of critical importance in the underlying cause of cardiovascular disease. In Japanese definition, waist circumference is essential for criterion of METS because visceral fat accumulation is believed to be associated with METS more closely than the body mass index (BMI) itself or the amount of subcutaneous fat - Effect of nutrient intake on premenstrual depression
Consumption of a carbohydrate-rich, protein-poor evening test meal during the late luteal phase of the menstrual cycle improved depression, tension, anger, confusion, sadness, fatigue, alertness, and calmness scores (p less than 0.01) among patients with premenstrual syndrome. Because synthesis of brain serotonin, which is known to be involved in mood and appetite, increases after carbohydrate intake, premenstrual syndrome subjects may overconsume carbohydrates in an attempt to improve their dysphoric mood state. - The involvement of brain serotonin in excessive carbohydrate snacking by obese carbohydrate cravers
A specific hunger for carbohydrate-rich foods has been observed in animals and human beings and appears to be regulated by the brain neurotransmitter serotonin. Consumption of a carbohydrate-rich meal increases the synthesis and release of brain serotonin (by enhancing the brain uptake of its precursor, tryptophan). - Dietary carbohydrate's effects on lipogenesis and the relationship of lipogenesis to blood insulin and glucose concentrations
The process by which dietary carbohydrate is transformed into fat in the human body is termed de novo lipogenesis - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Lipogenesis
Lipogenesis is the process by which simple sugars such as glucose are converted to fatty acids. Insulin stimulates lipogenesis in three main ways - The role of skeletal muscle insulin resistance in the pathogenesis of the metabolic syndrome
In contrast, hepatic de novo lipogenesis and hepatic triglyceride synthesis were both increased by >2-fold in the insulin-resistant subjects - The prevalence of the metabolic syndrome in the Netherlands: increased risk of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes mellitus type 2 in one quarter of persons under 60
Approximately 1 million Dutch adults below 60 years of age had the metabolic syndrome in the 1990's. Based on the total prevalence of the metabolic syndrome and hypercholesterolaemia, one quarter of the Dutch population younger then 60 runs an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus
