Thigh fat and muscle each contribute to excess cardiometabolic risk in South Asians, independent of visceral adipose tissue. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: To compare fat distribution and associations between fat depots and cardiometabolic traits in South Asians and Europeans. METHODS: Five hundred and fourteen South Asians and 669 Europeans, aged 56-86.

Histone Deacetylases and Cardiometabolic Diseases [PDF]
Cardiometabolic disease, emerging as a worldwide epidemic, is a combination of metabolic derangements leading to type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease. Genetic and environmental factors are linked through epigenetic mechanisms to the pathogenesis of cardiometabolic disease.

Magnesium Deficiency and Cardiometabolic Disease
Magnesium (Mg2+) has many physiological functions within the body. These include important roles in maintaining cardiovascular functioning, where it contributes to the regulation of cardiac excitation–contraction coupling, endothelial functioning and haemostasis.

Waist-to-height ratio and cardiometabolic risk factors in adolescence: findings from a prospective birth cohort [PDF]
What is already known about this subject In adults, associations between body mass index (BMI), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) and cardiometabolic outcomes are similar.

Ethnic differences in adiposity and diabetes risk – insights from genetic studies [PDF]
Type 2 diabetes is more common in non-Europeans and starts at a younger age and at lower BMI cut-offs. This review discusses the insights from genetic studies about pathophysiological mechanisms which determine risk of disease with a focus on the role of

CaMKII in Cardiometabolic Disease
The worldwide epidemic of obesity is closely linked to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes (T2D), which have led to a critical need for new drug development. Insulin resistance and T2D contribute to the pathogenesis of many diseases including fatty liver disease, cardiovascular disease, kidney failure and retinal disease.

Hypertension and cardiometabolic disease
Hypertension has a central role in cardiometabolic disease and is usually associated with metabolic disorders, such as insulin resistance, obesity, and dyslipidemia. Hyperinsulinemia may increase cardiovascular (CV) risk through its promotion of hypertension, which is possibly a result of chronic enhancement of sympathetic nervous system activity ...

Combined effects of time spent in physical activity, sedentary behaviors and sleep on obesity and cardio-metabolic health markers: a novel compositional data analysis approach [PDF]
The associations between time spent in sleep, sedentary behaviors (SB) and physical activity with health are usually studied without taking into account that time is finite during the day, so time spent in each of these behaviors are codependent ...

Compositional analyses of the associations between sedentary time, different intensities of physical activity, and cardiometabolic biomarkers among children and youth from the United States [PDF]
Introduction : Compositional data analysis is one appropriate method for co-dependent data, even when data are collected for a subdivision of the 24-hour period, such as the waking day.
