The relation between visceral adipose tissue accumulation and biochemical tests in university students. [PDF]
, 2005 We evaluated the visceral adipose tissue accumulation in university students in Okayama prefecture, Japan. Fifty-eight Japanese university students (10 men and 48 women, age 18.4 +/- 0.6 years)were enrolled in this study.

Computed tomography measures of nutrition in patients with end-stage liver disease provide a novel approach to characterize deficits [PDF]
, 2018 Aim Patients with cirrhosis and end-stage liver disease (ESLD) develop severe nutrition deficits that impact on morbidity and mortality. Laboratory measures of nutrition fail to fully assess clinical deficits in muscle mass and fat stores.

Intrinsic Differences in Adipocyte Precursor Cells From Different White Fat Depots [PDF]
, 2014 Obesity and body fat distribution are important risk factors for the development of type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Evidence has accumulated that this risk is related to intrinsic differences in behavior of adipocytes in different fat depots.

Visceral Fat Accumulation and Cardiovascular Disease [PDF]
Obesity Research, 1995 Classification of Obesity. It has been noted that the incidence of metabolic complications among equally obese subjects differs depending on their physique (11) and there has been more scientific assessment in recent years that complications such as diabetes mellitus or hyperlipidemia are related to adipose tissue distribution (5). In 1983, we reported

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

Association of Visceral Fat and Liver Fat With Hyperuricemia [PDF]
Arthritis Care & Research, 2016 ObjectiveTo examine cross‐sectionally whether intraabdominal fat area (IAFA), i.e., visceral fat, and liver fat assessed by computed tomography (CT) are independently associated with hyperuricemia.MethodsSubjects were 801 Japanese men not taking antidiabetic, antihypertensive, or urate‐lowering medications, without any history of renal disease ...

Hypothesis: ‘Vasocrine’ signalling from perivascular fat - a mechanism linking insulin resistance and vascular disease [PDF]
, 2005 Adipose tissue expresses cytokines which inhibit insulin signalling pathways in liver and muscle. Obesity also results in impairment of endothelium-dependent vasodilatation to insulin. We propose a vasoregulatory role for local deposits of fat around the
