Abstract:
Maternal diet and body composition prior to pregnancy influence gestational weight gain and infant growth patterns. Low maternal pre-pregnancy weight, low BMI, and low attained weight throughout pregnancy are associated with impaired fetal growth, while obesity and high weight gain increases the risks of multiple adverse pregnancy outcomes and excessive fetal growth and offspring obesity. Currently the US Institute of Medicine guidelines for gestational weight gain are the only ones available for developed countries where mean maternal height is similar to that in the US. While these guidelines should be followed, attention should be given to body composition before pregnancy, and measures of body habitus such as maternal height should be taken into account.

Abstract:
Physical activity in the general youth population and systematic training for sport among young athletes seems to have no effect on size attained and rate of growth in height, or on maturity status and timing. However, activity and training may influence body weight and composition. While both favourably influence bone mineral, variable effects are noted in some sports. Activity has a minimal effect on fatness in normal weight youth, but regular training generally has a positive influence on fatness in youth athletes. Data for fat-free/lean tissue mass are suggestive, but limited. Constitutional factors play a central role in the selection and retention of young athletes in a sport.

Abstract:
During the eighties and through his death in 1891—that is, the height of high realism and the Realism War—Melville actively wrote, revised, and published his last two volumes, composed Billy Budd, and wrote and revised an extensive body of unpublished poems. Yet scholarship has rarely situated Melville the poet in the debates about realism and idealism common in the print culture of the age. This chapter demonstrates that he carved out a realist poetics. This poetics simultaneously countered both Howellsian models of realism and the genteel poetics of romantic idealism. Melville predicates his realist poetic practice on a vision of “the Real”—his term in “The Aeolian Harp” (1888)—as epistemologically opaque.

Abstract:
Obesity has been around for more than 20 000 years, as evidenced by statuettes produced in the Stone Age. Body mass index (BMI), calculated as weight divided by the square of the height, is one of the simplest and most common ways of defining obesity. A BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 is classed as normal. BMI values of 25.0–29.9 suggest overweight, and any values over 30 are deemed obese. Across populations, BMI is closely associated with whole body adiposity, and the cut-off levels for overweight and obesity reflect the increasing risk of metabolic, cardiovascular, and other complications of obesity as BMI increases above the normal range. Obesity is widely agreed to be caused by a prolonged period of energy imbalance. In 95% of cases, it is due to the impact of an obesogenic lifestyle (overconsumption of energy and/or insufficient energy expenditure) on a variable background of genetic susceptibility. The remaining cases are caused by certain drugs, specific endocrine diseases, and monogenic syndromes.

Abstract:
Routine assessment of nutritional status should be part of normal practice when seeing any patient. The purpose is to document objective nutritional parameters (e.g. anthropometry), identify nutritional deficiencies, and establish nutritional needs. Protein–energy malnutrition has many adverse consequences including growth failure (identified by reference to standard growth charts). Worldwide, malnutrition contributes to a third of deaths in children under 5 years of age, and one in nine people don’t have enough food to lead an active and healthy life. In developed countries, malnutrition complicates both acute and chronic illness with negative effects on outcomes. In clinical practice, a useful approach to nutritional assessment is to consider three elements: ‘what you are’ (i.e. body habitus—underweight for height; short for age; etc.), ‘what you can do’ (functional activity), and ‘what you eat’ (current nutritional intake).

Abstract:
The Oxford Handbook of Economics and Human Biology provides an extensive and insightful overview of how economic conditions affect human well-being and how human health influences economic outcomes. The book addresses both macro and micro factors, as well as their interaction, providing new understanding of complex relationships and developments in economic history and economic dynamics. Among the topics explored is how variation in height, whether over time, among different socioeconomic groups, or in different locations, is an important indicator of changes in economic growth and economic development, levels of economic inequality, and economic opportunities for individuals. The book covers a broad geographic range: Africa, Latin and North America, Asia, and Europe. Its temporal scope ranges from the late Iron Age to the present. Taking advantage of recent improvements in data collection and economic methods, the book also explores how humans’ biological conditions influence and are influenced by their economic circumstances, including poverty. Among the issues addressed are how height, body mass index (BMI), and obesity can affect and are affected by productivity, wages, and wealth. How family environment affects health and well-being is examined, as is the importance of both pre-birth and early-childhood conditions for subsequent economic outcomes. The volume shows that well-being is a salient aspect of economics, and the new toolkit of evidence from biological living standards enhances understanding of how industrialization, commercialization, income distribution, the organization of health care, social status, and the redistributive state affect such human attributes as physical stature, weight, and the obesity epidemic in historical and contemporary populations.
