Visceral fat area and subcutaneous fat area as measures of body composition in soft tissue sarcoma [PDF]
Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are a heterogenous group of malignancies of mesenchymal origin. Given recent data linking obesity as well as the pattern of fat distribution with cancer outcomes, we sought to investigate the association of visceral fat area ...

Visceral fat area and visceral-to-subcutaneous fat ratio are more strongly associated with residual cholesterol than conventional anthropometric indices in adults with type 2 diabetes [PDF]
BackgroundResidual cholesterol (RC) is linked to cardiovascular risk, yet the optimal adiposity indices to capture this burden in type 2 diabetes (T2D) remain unclear.

Calcium Beta-Hydroxy-Beta-Methylbutyrate-Enriched Nutritional Supplementation During Dietary Weight Loss in Adults With Obesity: A Randomized Controlled Trial. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Dietary and pharmacologic weight loss can reduce skeletal muscle. Whether calcium beta‐hydroxy‐beta‐methylbutyrate (CaHMB)‐enriched supplementation preserves muscle while promoting fat loss in adults with obesity remains uncertain. We evaluated a CaHMB‐enriched nutritional supplement during energy restriction.

Effect of Chitooligosaccharides-Combination Fortified Noodles Intervention on Visceral Adiposity and Serum Metabolites in a High-Risk Occupational Cohort of Young Seafarers. [PDF]
In a 4‐week self‐controlled trial of 73 young seafarers, consumption of chitooligosaccharides‐combination fortified noodles every other day significantly reduced visceral fat area, waist circumference, serum leptin, and LDL‐C, and elevated skeletal muscle index, without altering body weight.

Adipose Reserves and Survival: Protective in Prefrail but Ineffective in Frail Oldest-Old. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Among the oldest‐old, the impact of body composition on survival outcomes exhibits pronounced heterogeneity. Although the obesity paradox has been widely discussed, clear evidence is still lacking regarding whether the biological effects of adipose reserves are modulated by functional status.

Association of visceral fat and plasmacytoid dendritic cell-derived interferon alpha with SARS-CoV-2 infection. [PDF]
Type I interferon (IFN-I: IFNα/β) production by plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) is critical for controlling viral infections. Visceral fat obesity is associated with severe outcomes in viral infections, but its effect on pDC-mediated IFN-I production
