Triglyceride-glucose index as a marker for visceral obesity in patients with gastric cancer

Frontiers in Nutrition
BackgroundThe triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index has emerged as a validated and cost-effective indicator of insulin resistance (IR). Given the significant association between visceral obesity and IR, this study aimed to investigate the utility of the TyG ...

Serum Triglyceride Levels Independently Contribute to the Estimation of Visceral Fat Amount Among Nondiabetic Obese Adults

, 2017
Determining the visceral fat amount is important in the risk stratification for the prevention of type 2 diabetes and obesity-related disorders. The area-based measurement of visceral fat area (VFA) via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an accurate but

Association between Nutrients and Visceral Fat in Healthy Japanese Adults: A 2-Year Longitudinal Study Brief Title: Micronutrients Associated with Visceral Fat Accumulation

, 2019
High visceral fat area (VFA) is a stronger predictor of cardiovascular disease and overall mortality than body mass index or waist circumference. VFA may be decreased by proper dietary habits.

Visceral to subcutaneous fat area ratio predicts severe abdominal adhesions in definitive surgery for anastomotic fistula after small intestine resection

Scientific Reports
Abdominal adhesions manifests following abdominal infections triggered by intestinal fistulas. The severity of such adhesions depends on the extent of fiber deposition and peritoneal fibrinolysis following peritoneal injury, which may be influenced by ...

Metabolic syndrome and abdominal fat are associated with inflammation, but not with clinical outcomes, in peritoneal dialysis patients

, 2014
Background: In the general population, metabolic syndrome (MetS) is correlated with visceral fat and a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD); however, little is known about the significance of abdominal fat and its association with inflammation ...

CT-assessed abdominal visceral adiposity and MASLD: a sex-stratified cross-sectional analysis

Frontiers in Nutrition
AimsTo test the hypothesis that CT-derived visceral fat and muscle measures are more strongly associated with MASLD than BMI, and that these associations are sex-specific and nonlinear, we examined abdominal body composition in relation to MASLD risk ...
