Chronic Kidney Disease and the Adiposity Paradox: Valid or Confounded?
2019, Journal of Renal NutritionCitation Excerpt :To our knowledge, our study is the first to use a direct estimate of adiposity to assess the association of obesity with mortality in CKD and to assess the impact of weight loss on these findings. Weight loss is associated with mortality in the general population43 and among persons with ESRD44 and CKD20 and was an important confounder in our analyses. Adjustment for weight loss eliminated any apparent protective effect of obesity across all measures.

2012, AppetiteCitation Excerpt :Decreased physical activity and decreased energy expenditure with ageing predispose to fat accumulation and redistribution. According to several studies in developed countries, the early phase of aging (55–65 years) is often associated with a positive energy balance and an increase in body fat which is linked to excess morbidity, mortality, and health care costs (Andreyeva, Sturm, & Ringel, 2004; Calle, Teras, & Thun, 2005; Cornoni-Huntley et al., 1991). In the subsequent phase of aging (after 65–75 years), body fat and lean body mass decrease and continue to decline with a negative energy balance (Wilson & Morley, 2003).
