Pathophysiology and Pathogenesis of Visceral Fat Obesity [PDF]

open access: yesObesity, 1995
AbstractBased on the analysis of fat distribution by computed tomography (CT) scans, the classification scheme for obesity should include visceral fat obesity in which fat accumulation is predominant in the intra‐abdominal cavity. Obese subjects with visceral fat accumulation more frequently demonstrate impairment of glucose and lipid metabolism than ...

Obesity, Visceral Fat, and Hypertension-Related Complications [PDF]

open access: yesMetabolic Syndrome and Related Disorders, 2018
Background: Hypertension and obesity are very common and complex cardiovascular (CV) risk factors. Our aim was to provide a comprehensive assessment of associations between visceral fat depots and vascular or cardiac complications of hypertension. Methods: All the consecutive patients (age: 45-80 years old) scheduled for elective coronary angiography ...

Correlation of body visceral fat rating with serum lipid profile and fasting blood sugar in obese adults using a noninvasive machine

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
Increased visceral fat is associated with an increased mortality rate. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a noninvasive method to assess visceral fat that is easily accessible and avoids exposure to radiation.

Depot-Specific Changes in Fat Metabolism with Aging in a Type 2 Diabetic Animal Model. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Visceral fat accretion is a hallmark of aging and is associated with aging-induced metabolic dysfunction. PPARγ agonist was reported to improve insulin sensitivity by redistributing fat from visceral fat to subcutaneous fat. The purpose of this study was
