Thesis (MA)-- Stellenbosch University, 2013.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis provides a critical discussion of, and motivation for, my jewellery practice, in which fat from the human body is transformed into adornment. Drawing on Julia Kristeva’s theory of ‘abjection’, this research scrutinises the grotesque status of body substances in the modern media, with the intention of changing viewer reactions to these substances from repulsion to aesthetic enjoyment. I consider the influence of popular culture, where idealised bodies are promoted as ‘better’ than non-normative body types, and th

Abstract (sommario):

Since 1980, the global prevalence of obesity has more than doubled. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) more than one in ten of the world’s adult population are now obese. The prevalence of obesity is high both in the developed and developing countries, leading to suggestions of an “obesity pandemic” or “globesity”. In Scotland alone, 28% of adults are now obese, and a further 36% are overweight. Historically, the main focus of healthcare has been the avoidance of preventable mortality. As life-expectancy has increased, attention has focused on the need to improve health, as well

Abstract (sommario):

Obesity is a growing problem for humans and their horses and ponies, yet emaciated animals still form an important part of the work of equine welfare charities. Non-invasive yet reliable methods of assessing equine body fat are required in order to promote management procedures to improve animal welfare. The overall objective of this work was to investigate the application of a horse-specific body condition scoring system in ponies in order to either validate or revise it, or even replace it with a novel system if necessary.

Abstract (sommario):

Background: The epidemic of childhood obesity is of increasing public health concern, with major implications for long-term health. Prevention strategies are urgently needed. Most of the evidence concerning risk factors for childhood obesity comes from observational studies, mainly from Western populations. In the West, socio-economic position (SEP) is often associated with potential risk factors and with childhood obesity, making these observational studies open to residual confounding. Evidence from a setting with a different confounding structure can be valuable in disentangling whether ass

Previous research suggests that facial characteristics associated with body mass index (BMI) play an important role in health and attractiveness judgments of faces. However, very little work has investigated the factors that predict individual differences in preferences for facial cues of adiposity or how these individual differences are related to social outcomes. In light of the above, the first two empirical chapters of this thesis investigated the relationships between individual differences in preferences for facial cues of adiposity and (1) the BMI of men’s and women’s actual romantic pa

Abstract (sommario):

Prostate cancer is a common cancer, particularly in Western countries. Increasing body mass index (BMI) has been associated with a modest increased risk of advanced and fatal prostate cancer (12-15% per 5 kg/m2 increase in BMI). Adipokines (adipose derived hormones) have been proposed as mediators of this association, but the results of several (mostly small) observational studies have been conflicting. The thesis describes investigations conducted into associations of adiposity, adipokines and lifestyle factors with prostate cancer; firstly, a systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis

Abstract (sommario):

Over the past three decades there has been a significant increase in adiposity - prevalence of accumulation of excess fat around some human organs - globally. This has been characterised by an increase of body mass index (BMI) among men and women. In Sub-Sahara Africa, South Africa has one of the highest prevalence of obesity and the country currently experiences some epidemiological transitions. Excess adiposity is a major risk factor for a number of non-communicable diseases creating a burden for individuals, families, the health care system and society at large (Colditz, 1999).

We therefore tested the hypothesis that ADCY5 mRNA expression in human and mouse AT is related to obesity, fat distribution, T2D in humans and high fat diet (HFD) in mice.

Bilirubin is a haem catabolite that is excreted through the hepatobiliary pathway and is therefore, commonly used as a biomarker of hepatic dysfunction and haemolysis in the clinical setting [1]. Although, bilirubin has been considered toxic [2], recent evidence suggests that mildly elevated circulating bilirubin concentrations may be protective against obesity, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and all-cause mortality [3–5]. Generally, the protective effects of bilirubin are attributed to its antioxidant potential [6–8], however, recent studies demonstrate that bilirubin modulates lipid metaboli

Summary: Adiposity is defined as the property of containing fat. Excessive adiposity is a cause of both morbidity and mortality in adults. Important consequences include increased risks of type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease and stroke, (particularly through the increased risks of high blood pressure, dyslipidaemia and insulin resistance associated with adiposity), osteoarthritis, gall bladder disease and some cancers (particularly endometrial, breast, and colon). There is concern, both in the UK and in other settings, that levels of adiposity have risen during the past 20-30 years or so,

Abstract (sommario):

Chapter One introduces the field of evolutionary psychology as well as provides a review of factors influencing facial attractiveness. Chapter Two presents empirical evidence that online studies may provide a distorted perspective on cross-cultural face preferences since online samples are not representative of the populations in developing countries. In El Salvador, participants without internet access preferred more feminine men as well as heavier and more masculine women when compared to participants with internet access. One possible explanation for such findings is that the level of harsh

Abstract (sommario):

На даний час встановленим є той факт, що ожиріння є незалежним предиктором негативної відповіді на лікування хронічного вірусного гепатиту С (ХВГ С) і одним із достовірних чинників прогресування недуги. Пацієнти з ожирінням, незалежно від генотипу вірусу та/чи наявності цирозу печінки, мають приблизно у 80 % менший шанс досягнення стійкої вірусологічної відповіді на терапію, порівняно з особами, що мають нормальну вагу.

Abstract (sommario):

Body adiposity is generally considered the most pertinent factor in puberty attainment; however, recent data suggests that pre-pubertal reproductive tract development may be altered by dietary sugar consumption. Two experiments were conducted to delineate the direct effects of fructose on the maturation of the pre-pubertal reproductive tract and fertility. At three weeks of age, forty gilts were placed on one of five dietary treatments (n=8) containing 15% fat (FAT), 35% fructose (FRU), both fat and fructose (HFHF), or two different controls: one standard industry (IND) diet meant to result in

Antecedentes e hipótesis La disfunción del tejido adiposo se encuentra frecuentemente asociada con alteraciones en la homeostasis metabólica, cardiovascular e inflamatoria crónica leve de la obesidad. El tejido adiposo es considerado como diana terapéutica para prevenir la obesidad. Precursores de la nicotinamida adenina dinucleotido (NAD)+, tales como el ribósido de nicotinamida y mononucleótido de nicotinamida promueven el metabolismo energético y previenen la ganancia de peso corporal en modelos animales. Sin embargo, en estos trabajos no se abordó directamente su posible efecto sobre las

Abstract (sommario):

Air pollution-induced systemic inflammation and oxidative stress are among potential underlying mechanisms that mediate the associations between air pollution and metabolic risk factors such as obesity and insulin resistance. Furthermore, both obesity and insulin resistance are two important risk factors for non-alcoholic liver disease, one of the most common liver diseases in the United States. Although in controlled animal studies, exposure to elevated fine particulate matter (PM2.5) has been associated with increased abdominal adiposity and liver fat accumulation, few epidemiologic studies

Abstract (sommario):

Food preferences are important drivers of actual food choice, determining micro- and macronutrient intake; and poor dietary quality increases the risk for nutrition-related disease. Greater liking for sweets, fats and snacks has sometimes been related to higher body fat in childhood, yet the relationship in adults remains unclear. Twin studies are a powerful design to understand the importance of nature and nurture in these behaviours. So far, twin research on food preferences has only used young paediatric or adult populations but the relative importance of genes and the environment in shapin
