DOSE BODY FAT MASS DEFINE SURVIVAL IN PATIENTS STARTING PERITONEAL DIALYSIS?

open access: yesKidney Research and Clinical Practice, 2012
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is characterized by a gain in fat mass. In contrast to subcutaneous fat, visceral fat is associated with metabolic syndrome and survival. We prospectively examined whether the visceral or subcutaneous fat could define outcomes in

Viability, yield and expansion capability of feline MSCs obtained from subcutaneous and reproductive organ adipose depots

open access: yesBMC Veterinary Research, 2021
Background The source of multipotent stromal cells (MSC) can have a significant influence on the health and expansion capacity of the cells. As the applications for allogeneic MSCs in the treatment of feline diseases increase, the location of the initial

Ratio of visceral‐to‐subcutaneous fat area predicts cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, 2017
To investigate whether the ratio of visceral fat area (VFA) to subcutaneous fat area (SFA; V/S ratio) could be predictive of cardiovascular disease (CVD) as compared with VFA or SFA in patients with diabetes.

Visceral adipose tissue activated macrophage content and inflammatory adipokine secretion is higher in pre-eclampsia than in healthy pregnancy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Obesity increases preeclampsia risk. Adipose tissue inflammation may contribute to the clinical syndrome of pre-eclampsia. We compared adipose tissue macrophage infiltration and release of pro-inflammatory adipokines in pre-eclampsia and healthy ...
