Visceral adiposity index (VAI), a powerful predictor of incident hypertension in prehypertensives
Internal and Emergency Medicine, 2018Prehypertension (defined by The Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee on the Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure, JNC-7) is relevant to a higher cardiovascular risk than normotensives. Early intervention in this particular population is essential to avoid progression into hypertension (HTN). This study is to

Background Visceral adiposity index (VAI) has been suggested as an index of visceral adiposity. This study was conducted to determine the discriminatory ability of VAI in diagnosis of metabolic syndrome (MetS). Methods and materials We used the data of 5 312 subjects aged 18-74 years of a cohort study conducted among 6 140 individuals aged 10-90 years ...

Obesity is a global pandemic with a growing impact on morbidity and mortality. We assessed the associative strength of the Visceral Adiposity Index (VAI) and Dysfunctional Adiposity Index (DAI) in obesity and associated risk using different methods.Cross-sectional study in 418 343 workers from different autonomous communities in Spain, estimating ...

What is the relationship between visceral adiposity index (VAI) and total and free sex hormones in aging polish women? [PDF]
European Gynecology & Obstetrics, 2019 The visceral adiposity index (VAI) is a novel and very sensitive cardiometabolic predictor. The number of cardiovascular diseases in women increases with climacteric transformation. In 505 women aged over 65 years, randomly selected from the whole of Poland, we investigated whether VAI score was associated with sex hormones. We split the women into two

Visceral adiposity index is highly associated with adiponectin values and glycaemic disturbances
European Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2013 Background Visceral Adiposity Index (VAI) is a gender-specific mathematical index estimated with the use of simple anthropometric (body mass index and waist circumference) and biochemical (triglycerides and high density lipoprotein cholesterol ...

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a cluster of cardiometabolic-related conditions that occur together with obesity. Visceral adiposity specifically is an important risk factor for MetS. The visceral adiposity index (VAI) is a sex-specific estimate of visceral adiposity presence and dysfunction and while a reliable predictor of MetS, more research is needed ...
