I t is well established that the cardiovascular (CV) risk of obesity is more strongly associated with visceral rather than subcutaneous adiposity. Anthropometric variables that account for visceral adiposity, such as body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC), have limited sensitivity and specificity. Furthermore, there is increasing recognition of “normal weight obese” persons (ie, tho...

The insulin resistance syndrome, consisting of resistance to insulin and several metabolic abnormalities, is associated with an increased risk of symptomatic coronary artery disease. Asymptomatic persons with increased coronary calcification have increased coronary plaque and an increased likelihood of future cardiovascular events. Electron-beam computed tomography-derived coronary artery calci...

BACKGROUND Previous studies have suggested that patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) suffer from a high incidence of cardiovascular events (CVE). Visceral adiposity has been implicated in promoting CVEs. This study aimed to assess the association of relative visceral adipose volume with incident cardiovascular events in patients with peripheral artery disease. METHODS This was a pros...

OBJECTIVE To determine the influence of the total cumulative exposure to excess overall and abdominal adiposity on the incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD). METHODS Prospective study of 4,061 white and black adults without CVD at baseline in 1985-1986 (age 18-30 years) from the multicenter, community-based CARDIA study. Time-varying excess body mass index (BMI)- and waist circumference (...

OBJECTIVE This study examined the cross-sectional and longitudinal relationships of built environment characteristics with adiposity and glycaemic measures. METHOD Longitudinal study sample consisted of 4,010 Framingham Heart Study Offspring (baseline: 1998-2001; follow-up: 2005-2008) and Generation Three (baseline: 2002-2005; follow-up: 2008-2011) participants (54.8% women, baseline mean age...

OBJECTIVE To determine whether menopause-related changes in reproductive hormones were associated with change in adiposity and whether these relationships were independent of important covariates. METHODS Annual assessments of adiposity measures [computed tomography-assessed visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue (SAT) and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry-asse...
