DESCRIPTION: \n\nPhD Oral Defense of Nihal A O Natour\, School of Dietetics
  and Human Nutrition\n\nIn Canada\, Inuit are facing a rapid nutrition tra
 nsition away from consumption of traditional food (TF) which coincides wit
 h a higher prevalence of obesity\, type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) and lowe
 r vitamin D status.  Vitamin D status is inversely associated with the ris
 ks of developing prediabetes\, metabolic syndrome (METS) and DM2. Cross ta
 lk between energy metabolism and bone through osteocalcin is implicated in
  the pathophysiology and etiology of DM2.  Epidemiological studies show th
 at osteocalcin associates with reduced insulin resistance and enhanced pan
 creatic secretion of insulin.  This thesis consists of 4 studies using dat
 a from Inuit adults (≥18 y) who participated in the cross-sectional 2007-2
 008 International Polar Year Inuit Health Survey conducted in three arctic
  regions\, Nunavut\, Nunatsiavut and Inuvialuit Settlement Region.\n\nEver
 yone in the 9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ community is welcome to attend a PhD oral defense. Plea
 se join us in celebrating the accomplishments of our PhD candidates.\n\n
