Gender-specific anthropometric markers of adiposity, metabolic syndrome and visceral adiposity index (VAI) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea

open access: yes, 2014
Obstructive sleep apnea often coexists with visceral adiposity and metabolic syndrome. In this study, we analysed gender-related differences in anthropometrics according to sleep apnea severity and metabolic abnormalities.

Lipidomic Profile Reconstruction of Therapeutic Membrane Targets Using Physics‐Based Optimization with Limited Activity Data

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Using a minimal set of experimentally labeled antimicrobial and non‐antimicrobial peptides, we reconstruct the effective lipid composition of a pathogenic membrane ‐demonstrated at the example of bacterial membranes‐ through a physics‐based evolutionary molecular dynamics (Evo‐MD) approach. Optimization based on peptide insertion reveals broad‐spectrum

Evaluating the visceral adiposity inflammatory index for enhanced stroke risk assessment

open access: yesScientific Reports
Stroke is a leading cause of global morbidity and mortality, with risk factors like visceral adiposity and inflammation playing significant roles. This study introduces the Visceral Adiposity Inflammatory Index (VAII), combining the Visceral Adiposity ...

Effects of sex and race on the changes in intrahepatic lipid, total and visceral adipose tissue in response to exercise training in obese adolescents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUD: Non-alcoholic fatty liver is the most frequent liver abnormality observed in obese children and adolescents. It is has yet to be determined whether sex and race plays a role in the effect of regular exercise without calorie restriction on ...

Visceral adiposity index as an indicator of cardiometabolic risk in patients treated for craniopharyngioma

open access: yes, 2017
Purpose: Craniopharyngioma is associated with metabolic alterations leading to increased cardiovascular mortality. Recently, the visceral adiposity index has been proposed as a marker of visceral adipose tissue dysfunction and of the related ...

Systematic Multi‐Level Analyses Decode the Arthritis‐Neurodegeneration Axis With In Vivo Validation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Arthritis and neurodegeneration are usually studied as separate disorders, but this study connects them through population evidence, genetic inference, transcriptomic mapping, and mouse models. It highlights RNF40 as a context‐dependent joint‐brain candidate, induced in inflammatory joints yet functionally linked to dopamine‐neuron vulnerability ...

A Retrospective Cohort Study of the Chinese Visceral Adiposity Index and Risk of Fatty Liver [PDF]

open access: yesZhongguo quanke yixue
Background Obesity is an important risk factor for the development of fatty liver. The current diagnostic indexes of obesity cannot effectively reflect the role of adipose tissue distribution in the development of fatty liver.

Alternating Shear Force of Respiration Regulates Cell Interactions of Fibroblasts and Macrophages to Promote Soft Tissue Integration of Chest Wall Polyetheretherketone Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Given that PEEK chest wall implants induce shear force at the soft tissue‐implant interface due to respiratory motion in the early in vivo post‐implantation stage. We confirmed that this mechanical stimulus triggers the PIEZO1/ITGB1/YAP1 signalling axis in L929 and the STAT6/p‐STAT6 pathway in RAW264.7, which in turn mediates adhesion and migration of ...

Effects of additive interactions among obesity, visceral adiposity, and sarcopenia on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Although the association of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with obesity or sarcopenia is known, few studies have investigated the combined effect of various body composition parameters on the risk of NAFLD.
