Visceral and subcutaneous fat, muscle mass, and liver volume as noninvasive predictors of the progress of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

The Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, 2023
Background The term “non-alcoholic fatty liver disease” (NAFLD) refers to a range of disorders caused by lipid accumulation in the liver. High abdominal fat levels can cause adipocytes to become more lipolytic, releasing free fatty acids into the portal ...

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

Multi‐Component Functionalized Bifidobacterium Longum Hydrogel for Multi‐Target Integrated Therapy of Colitis‐Associated Anxiety and Depression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A pH/MMP dual‐responsive Bifidobacterium longum (BL) hydrogel (INPs@BL@Gel) functionalized with baicalin, tyrosine, and inulin is constructed. It enables gastric protection, inflammation‐targeted release, and prolonged intestinal colonization. By remodeling gut microbiota, elevating beneficial neuroactive metabolites (homovanillic acid, short‐chain ...

Association of vitamin D and fiber intake with body fat percentage and visceral fat among female factory workers in Pontianak City

AcTion: Aceh Nutrition Journal
Low intakes of vitamin D and fiber can lead to increased body fat and visceral fat in female factory workers. This study aimed to assess the intake of vitamin D and fiber in female factory workers and their relationship with body and visceral fat.

Obesity, visceral fat and Crohnʼs disease

Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 2010
Increasing evidence indicates that adipose tissue is an active endocrine organ involved in metabolic syndrome and regulation of inflammation. Visceral fat accumulation is a hallmark of both obesity and Crohn's disease. Here, we present recent data describing the immune properties of intra-abdominal adipose tissue that could link the innate immune ...

An Integrative Strategy Delineates Modular Metabolic Remodeling and Potential Therapeutic Targets Across Metabolic Diseases

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrative single‐cell atlas across multiple metabolic diseases reveals coordinated metabolic modules and disease‐shared versus disease‐specific pathway activities. By systematically comparing scoring strategies, a robust RankAve framework is established. Coupled with network analysis and drug‐target prediction, this resource uncovers cross‐disease

Ovarian Cancer Diagnosis and Chemoresistance Prediction Model Based on cfRNA Molecular Signature

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A deep learning model analyzes cfRNA profiles extracted from the blood of OVCA patients. This innovative approach distinguishes OVCA from healthy controls with high accuracy. Crucially, it reliably predicts patient response to chemotherapy (sensitive versus resistant subgroups).
