Intramuscular fat and physical performance at the Framingham Heart Study [PDF]
Intramuscular fat may mediate associations between obesity and physical disability. We examined the associations between muscle attenuation, a proxy for intramuscular fat, and physical function. Paraspinous muscle computed tomography attenuation was obtained on a Framingham Heart Study subgroup (n = 1152, 56 % women, mean age 66 years).

Intramuscular fat (IMF) is implicated in juiciness, tenderness, and flavor of pork. Meat quality of Chinese fat-type pig is much better than that of lean-type pig because of its higher IMF content.

Thigh Intramuscular Fat on Prognosis of Patients With Nonischemic Cardiomyopathy
Skeletal muscle atrophy is an independent prognostic predictor for patients with chronic heart failure, and the concept of sarcopenia is drawing attention. Furthermore, the importance of not only muscle mass but also ectopic fat has been pointed out. However, there is a lack of consensus on the implications of ectopic fat for the prognosis in patients ...

Identification of microRNA Transcriptome Involved in Bovine Intramuscular Fat Deposition
BackgroundIntramuscular fat deposition in beef is a major determinant of carcass quality and value in the USA. The objective of this study was to examine changes in microRNA (miRNA) transcriptome that are involved with intramuscular fat deposition with ...

Improved recovery from prolonged exercise following the consumption of low glycemic index carbohydrate meals [PDF]
The present study examined the effects of the glycemic index (GI) of post-exercise carbohydrate (CHO) intake on endurance capacity and the metabolic responses during exercise the following day. Nine active males participated in two trials in a randomised

INFLUENCE OF GENETIC POLYMORPHISM IN FABP3 AND LEPR GENES ON INTRAMUSCULAR FAT CONTENT IN PIG CARCASSES [PDF]
Intensive production conditions, selection directed to increase the percentage of muscle tissue in carcasses and consumer demand have led to a reduction of intramuscular fat content in pig carcasses.

Background Intramuscular fat infiltration is a critical factor in surgical decision-making and is the most important factor used to prognosticate surgical repair outcomes in patients with rotator cuff tears.

The objectives of this study were 1) to determine whether selection toward less subcutaneous fat thickness at constant intramuscular fat content in pigs is related to tissue-specific changes in the expression of lipogenic enzymes acetyl-CoA carboxylase ...

Meta-analysis of meat quality of cattle slaughtered with different subcutaneous fat thicknesses
The objective of this work was to evaluate, through meta-analysis, the impact of subcutaneous fat thickness on beef qualitative traits. Combined data from 13 studies were used, comprising 245 carcasses of male bovines slaughtered in Brazil.

Circulating Non-Esterified Fatty Acids as Biomarkers for Fat Content and Composition in Pigs
Circulating non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) can reflect the composition of dietary fat or adipose tissues depending on the fasting conditions. Therefore, circulating NEFA may be valuable as biomarkers for meat quality traits, such as intramuscular fat ...
