Adipose tissue insulin sensitivity and macrophage recruitment
In the United States, obesity is a burgeoning health crisis, with over 30% of adults and nearly 20% of children classified as obese. Insulin resistance, a common metabolic complication associated with obesity, significantly increases the risk of developing metabolic diseases such as hypertension, coronary heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers. With the seminal finding that...
متن کاملQuantification of adipose tissue insulin sensitivity.
In metabolically healthy humans, adipose tissue is exquisitely sensitive to insulin. Similar to muscle and liver, adipose tissue lipolysis is insulin resistant in adults with central obesity and type 2 diabetes. Perhaps uniquely, however, insulin resistance in adipose tissue may directly contribute to development of insulin resistance in muscle and liver because of the increased delivery of fre...
متن کاملEvaluation of Radiation Exposure Pattern and Radiation Absorbed Dose Resulting from Occupational Exposure of Anesthesiologists to Ionizing Radiation
Introduction: Little information is available concerning the radiation exposure of anesthesiologists, and no such data have previously been collected in Iran. This prospective study was performed to determine the amount of radiation exposure of anesthesiologists for the purpose of assessing whether or not dangerous levels of radiation exposures were being reached, and to identify factors that c...
متن کاملHuman exposure to endocrine disrupters: standardisation of a marker of estrogenic exposure in adipose tissue.
In many epidemiological studies based on the direct measurement of exposure to organochlorines, the chemicals of concern are determined directly from adipose tissue samples. Although the measurement of all possible organochlorines, their metabolites, isomers and congeners may be desirable, it is expensive and time-consuming and many chemicals with hormonal activity may not yet have been identif...
متن کاملDistorted Reflector Antennas: Radiation Pattern Sensitivity to the Surface Distortions
The high-frequency performance of the reflector antennas is mainly limited by the surface. It has been shown that distortions on different regions of the reflector surface can have different effects on the radiation performance. In other words, degradation of the radiation pattern due to the presence of surface distortions is sensitive to the location and behavior of the surface distortion prof...
