Intra-abdominal fat depots represent distinct immunomodulatory microenvironments: a murine model. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
White adipose tissue (WAT) is a multi-faceted endocrine organ involved in energy storage, metabolism, immune function and disease pathogenesis. In contrast to subcutaneous fat, visceral fat (V-WAT) has been associated with numerous diseases and metabolic

Preperitoneal Fat Grafting Inhibits the Formation of Intra-abdominal Adhesions in Mice [PDF]

Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery, 2019
Adhesion formation contributes to postoperative complications in abdominal and gynaecological surgery. Thus far, the prevention and treatment strategies have focused on mechanical barriers in solid and liquid form, but these methods are not in routine ...

Selective parasympathetic innervation of subcutaneous and intra-abdominal fat--functional implications. [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2002
The wealth of clinical epidemiological data on the association between intra-abdominal fat accumulation and morbidity sharply contrasts with the paucity of knowledge about the determinants of fat distribution, which cannot be explained merely in terms of humoral factors.

Diagnostic value of focal hyperechoic mesenteric fat sign as an indicator of the primary source of intra-abdominal pathology in patients with abdominal pain [PDF]

Beni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences
Background Most acute abdominal pain raises the suspension of infectious or inflammatory processes. The most obvious sign of acute intra-abdominal inflammation is frequently the identification of inflamed fat on the ultrasound.

Waist Circumference Adjusted for Body Mass Index and Intra-Abdominal Fat Mass

PLoS ONE, 2012
Background The association between waist circumference (WC) and mortality is particularly strong and direct when adjusted for body mass index (BMI). One conceivable explanation for this association is that WC adjusted for BMI is a better predictor of the
