@article{27744, abstract = {{The aim of the present study was to examine the association of pre-pubertal dietary energy density (ED) with both age and body fatness at the start of the pubertal growth spurt (age at take-off, ATO). Analyses included 219 DOrtmund Nutritional and Anthropometric Longitudinally Designed Study participants with sufficient height measurements to estimate ATO who provided 3 d weighed dietary records at baseline, i.e. 2 and 3 years before ATO (mean age 6·9 (sd 1·2) years). Mean energy intakes and amounts of foods/drinks consumed at baseline were derived from the records. ED (kJ/g) was calculated based on (1) all foods and drinks (ED_all), (2) foods and energy-containing drinks (ED_energy), (3) foods and milk as a drink, but no other beverages (ED_milk) and (4) foods only, solid or liquid (ED_food). Using multiple regression analyses, the association between the ED variables and ATO was investigated. Furthermore, Z-scores of BMI and fat mass index (FMI) at ATO were considered as outcomes to reflect body fatness at puberty onset. The results showed that ED at baseline was not associated with ATO, regardless of the ED method used. For example, mean ATO in the lowest v. highest tertile of ED_food was 9·3 (95 % CI 9·0, 9·5) v. 9·4 (95 % CI 9·1, 9·7) years, Ptrend = 0·8 (adjusted for sex, maternal age, birth weight, dietary protein, dietary fibre, baseline BMI Z-score). Similarly, ED was not independently associated with BMI or FMI Z-score at ATO (Ptrend = 0·3–0·9). In conclusion, dietary ED in childhood did not influence timing or body fatness at ATO in this cohort of healthy, free-living children.}}, author = {{Günther, Anke L.

Intakes of bread, butter, eggs, pasta, vegetables/salad and fruit showed a significant direct relationship with the level of parental education after adjusting for potential confounders, whereas intakes of margarine, meat products, pizza, desserts and soft drinks were inversely associated with parental education.

We aimed to investigate prepubertal 24-h estrogen excretion levels and their association with early and late pubertal markers. Daily urinary excretion rates of estrogens of 132 healthy children, who provided 24-h urine samples 1 and 2 yr before the start of the pubertal growth spurt [age at takeoff (ATO)], were quantified by stable isotope dilution/GC-MS. E-sum3 (estrone + estradiol + estriol) was used as a marker for potentially bioactive estrogen metabolites and E-sum5 (E-sum3 + 16-epiestriol + 16-ketoestradiol) for total estrogen production. Pubertal outcomes were ATO, age at peak height velocity (APHV), duration of pubertal growth acceleration (APHV-ATO), age at Tanner stage 2 for pubic hair (PH2), genital (G2, boys) and breast (B2, girls) development, and age at menarche. Prepubertal urinary estrogen excretions (E-sum3 and E-sum5) were not associated with ATO, APHV, and age at PH2 but with duration of pubertal growth acceleration ( P < 0.01) in both sexes. Girls with higher E-sum3 reached B2 0.9 yr ( P = 0.04) and menarche 0.3 yr earlier ( P = 0.04) than girls with lower E-sum3. E-sum3 was not associated with age at G2 in boys ( P = 0.6). For most pubertal variables, the associations with E-sum3 were stronger than with E-sum5. In conclusion, prepubertal estrogens may not be critical for the onset of the pubertal growth spurt but are correlated with its duration in both boys and girls. Prepubertal estrogen levels may already predict the timing of girls' menstruation and breast development but do not appear to affect sexual maturation in boys. }}, author = {{Shi, Lijie and Remer, Thomas and Buyken, Anette and Hartmann, Michaela F. and Hoffmann, Philipp and Wudy, Stefan A.}}, issn = {{0193-1849}}, journal = {{American Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism}}, pages = {{E990--E997}}, title = {{{Prepubertal urinary estrogen excretion and its relationship with pubertal timing}}}, doi = {{10.1152/ajpendo.00374.2010}}, year = {{2010}}, } @article{27726, author = {{Buyken, Anette and Bolzenius, Katja and Karaolis-Danckert, Nadina and Günther, Anke L.B. and Kroke, Anja}}, issn = {{1042-0533}}, journal = {{American Journal of Human Biology}}, pages = {{216--224}}, title = {{{Body composition trajectories into adolescence according to age at pubertal growth spurt}}}, doi = {{10.1002/ajhb.21125}}, year = {{2010}}, } @article{27780, author = {{Buyken, Anette and Mitchell, P. and Ceriello, A. and Brand-Miller, J.}}, issn = {{0012-186X}}, journal = {{Diabetologia}}, pages = {{406--418}}, title = {{{Optimal dietary approaches for prevention of type 2 diabetes: a life-course perspective}}}, doi = {{10.1007/s00125-009-1629-8}}, year = {{2010}}, } @article{27781, author = {{Degen, Gisela H. and Blaszkewicz, Meinolf and Shi, Lijie and Buyken, Anette and Remer, Thomas}}, issn = {{1613-4125}}, journal = {{Molecular Nutrition & Food Research}}, pages = {{359--367}}, title = {{{Urinary isoflavone phytoestrogens in German children and adolescents - A longitudinal examination in the DONALD cohort}}}, doi = {{10.1002/mnfr.201000325}}, year = {{2010}}, } @article{26893, author = {{Shi, Lijie and Wudy, Stefan A and Buyken, Anette and Hartmann, Michaela F and Remer, Thomas}}, issn = {{0002-9165}}, journal = {{The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition}}, pages = {{1321--1328}}, title = {{{Body fat and animal protein intakes are associated with adrenal androgen secretion in children}}}, doi = {{10.3945/ajcn.2009.27964}}, year = {{2009}}, } @article{26894, author = {{Karaolis-Danckert, Nadina and Buyken, Anette and Sonntag, Antje and Kroke, Anja}}, issn = {{0002-9165}}, journal = {{The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition}}, pages = {{1559--1565}}, title = {{{Birth and early life influences on the timing of puberty onset: results from the DONALD (DOrtmund Nutritional and Anthropometric Longitudinally Designed) Study}}}, doi = {{10.3945/ajcn.2009.28259}}, year = {{2009}}, } @article{26895, author = {{Cheng, Guo and Gerlach, Steffi and Libuda, Lars and Kranz, Sibylle and Günther, Anke L.
