The protective effect of physical activity on colon cancer risk is discussed in regard to energy balance, dietary factors, age, social class, body mass index and gastrointestinal transit time.
Approximate energy models for infinite and finite plates are derived using three relationships; an energy balance, a loss factor damping model and an approximate energy transmission model.
The mechanism of the efficiency differences between the Miller and five stroke cycles is discussed in depth with the energy balance and influencing factor analysis on thermal efficiency.
As the liver is a critical metabolic tissue and the main production site of IGF-1 and many other energy balance-related factors, understanding the effect of CR on the hepatic transcriptome and identifying which CR-responsive genes are IGF-1 dependent or independent in liver is important.
Low short-term response to bST was associated with plasma concentrations of hormones and metabolites that indicate negative energy balance, although other factors may be involved.
Reduced feed intake and a negative energy balance are main factors leading to a delay of postpartum ovarian activity [ 47, 48].
15 In addition, common risk factors such as obesity also could modulate energy balance, calorie restriction, growth factors, multiple signaling pathways, and inflammatory processes.
Based on energy balance concept, the energy factor of self-centering systems is derived.
Leptin resistance that involves impairment in leptin transport, leptin signaling, and/or the neurocircuitry of energy balance is a risk factor for obesity (Morris and Rui 2009).
In species dwelling in habitats where radiant heat is a limited factor, energy balance and thus activity levels during early developmental stages could be hampered by limited sun exposure conditions.
