Visceral fat area measured with computed tomography does not predict postoperative course in Crohn´s disease patients. [PDF]
The role of visceral fat measured by computer tomography is yet not well defined in patients with Crohn's disease. Therefore, the present study was designed to assess the impact of visceral fat area on postoperative short-term outcome and surgical ...

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