Genomics of body fat distribution
Journal of Genetics, 2021Central obesity and body fat distribution measured by waist circumference (WC) and waist hip ratio (WHR) are good predictors of cardio metabolic adversities independent of overall adiposity. There are substantial evidence that body fat distribution is controlled by genetic factors.

Measurement of Body Fat and Fat Distribution
Journal of Nursing Measurement, 1995Overweight and obesity are increasing in prevalent and thus an important area for intervention and investigation. Researchers and clinicians have a variety of measurement techniques to assess body fatness and regional fat. These techniques are chosen for their accuracy and precision in light of their cost, convenience, and safety.

Body fat distribution and dyslipidemia
The American Journal of Medicine, 1995I n this issue of The American Journal of Medicine@, Walton et al demonstrate a relationship between central body fat distribution and elevated plasma triglyceride and decreased high-density lipoprotein subfraction 2 (HDLJ cholesterol in men. Body fat was determined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA}, and fat distribution by the ratio of fat ...

Androgens and body fat distribution
The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2008An important sex difference in body fat distribution is generally observed. Men are usually characterized by the android type of obesity, with accumulation of fat in the abdominal region, whereas women often display the gynoid type of obesity, with a greater proportion of their body fat in the gluteal-femoral region.

BODY FAT DISTRIBUTION AND OSTEOARTHRITIS
American Journal of Epidemiology, 1990The association of body fat distribution with single and combined site osteoarthritis was investigated using data from the US Health Examination Survey I, 1960-1962 (HES I) and the first National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey I, 1971-1975 (NHANES I).

Endometriosis and Body Fat Distribution
Obstetrics & Gynecology, 1993To examine the association of body fat distribution with risk of endometriosis in an effort to determine whether a specific somatotype is related to the disease.We conducted a case-control study of 88 laparoscopically confirmed cases of endometriosis, identified in a specialty gynecologic practice in western New York, and 88 age-matched friend controls.

Effects of the Menopause Transition on Body Fatness and Body Fat Distribution
Obesity Research, 1998AbstractObjective: The menopause transition increases cardiovascular and metabolic disease risk, partly because of the adverse effects of estrogen deficiency on the plasma lipid‐lipoprotein profile and cardiovascular function. This increased cardiovascular and metabolic disease risk may also be partially mediated by increased body fat, increased ...

Metabolic impact of body fat distribution
Journal of Endocrinological Investigation, 2002Many studies have shown that fat distribution influences metabolism independently of the effects of total body fat stores. The accumulation of fat in the abdominal area, particularly in the visceral fat compartment, seems to be associated with an increased risk to display complications such as insulin resistance, diabetes, dyslipidemias and ...
