Understanding Temporal Movement Behaviour Patterns: Measurement, Epidemiology, and Cardiometabolic Health Implications
… the independent role of movement patterns in cardiometabolic health, beyond total physical activity energy expenditure (PAEE), remains unclear. This thesis aimed to: (1) review and categorise metrics and methods used to describe temporal movement behaviour patterns measured by wearables, and …

Gut Microbiota-Generated Trimethylamine N-Oxide and Cardiometabolic Health in Humans
… to determine the effects of increases in TMAO on cardiometabolic health. In study 1, healthy sedentary and endurance trained males consumed a high fat diet. Blood samples were obtained in a fasted state and every hour during a 4-hour high fat challenge. We hypothesized sedentary individuals would …

LARGE-SCALE METAGENOMIC ANALYSIS TO IDENTIFY HUMAN GUT MICROBIOME BIOMARKERS OF CARDIOMETABOLIC HEALTH
… linked with a range of human diseases, including cardiometabolic disorders. Diet is both a well-established determinant of cardiometabolic health and a major factor shaping the gut microbiome, yet many aspects of the diet–microbiome–health axis remain poorly understood, particularly regarding the …

Maternal Obesity During Pregnancy: Cardiovascular Outcomes for Mother and Baby
… obesity during pregnancy is associated with poor cardiometabolic health both during pregnancy and in later life. Children of obese women are at an increased risk of both becoming obese themselves and developing hypertension and CVD. While some of this increased risk in the general population is …
