Abstract As obesity has reached epidemic proportions and given the current recognition of central adiposity as an important cardiometabolic risk factor, several researchers have focused on developing validating predictive indexes equations to evaluate Visceral Adipose Tissue (VAT). This study evaluates applicability Adiposity Index (VAI) for predicting in individuals treated a hospital In north...
BACKGROUND The renin-angiotensin system is involved in adipocyte growth and differentiation and possibly in adipose tissue metabolism. OBJECTIVE To investigate the association of polymorphism in the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) I/D gene, angiotensinogen M235T gene, and angiotensin II type 1 receptor A1166C gene with body mass index, body fat pattern, and obesity-associated hypertension...
Abstract Background and aim Obesity is associated with an increase in different adipose depots. The anatomic distribution of internal confers risks. Recently, significant interest has emerged the expansion epicardial tissue (EAT) as a mediator adverse cardiovascular events. Often, post-mortem examination remains best method investigating morphological changes health disease. This study aimed to...
Background and objectives: In many settings, partnered, invested fathers have lower testosterone than single men or fathers who are not involved in caregiving. Reduced testosterone has been identified as a risk factor for multiple chronic diseases, and men's health also commonly varies by life history status. There have been few tests of whether variation in testosterone based on partnering and...
Tesamorelin for the treatment of excess abdominal fat in HIV-infected individuals with lipodystrophy
Metabolic and morphologic abnormalities in persons with HIV remain common contributors to stigma and morbidity. Increased abdominal circumference and visceral adiposity were first recognized in the late 1990s, soon after the advent of effective combination antiretroviral therapy. Visceral adiposity is commonly associated with metabolic abnormalities including low HDL-cholesterol, raised triglyc...
BACKGROUND The higher risk of death resulting from excess adiposity may be attenuated by physical activity (PA). However, the theoretical number of deaths reduced by eliminating physical inactivity compared with overall and abdominal obesity remains unclear. OBJECTIVE We examined whether overall and abdominal adiposity modified the association between PA and all-cause mortality and estimated ...
OBJECTIVE to examine the influence of low-intensity, habitual physical activity on blood lipids and lipoproteins and other cardiovascular risk factors in older adults living at home. DESIGN cross-sectional observational study. PARTICIPANTS a convenience sample of healthy, older adults (n = 155) who were mainly non-Hispanic, white (96.8%), female (65.2%) and on medications for cardiometaboli...
OBJECTIVES To investigate whether total and/or regional adiposity measured by anthropometry and radiographic studies influences cognitive decline in older adults and whether this association is explained by hormones and inflammatory factors known to be secreted by adipose tissue. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. SETTING Two clinical centers. PARTICIPANTS Three thousand fifty-four elderly ...
Femoral subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) appears to be cardioprotective compared with abdominal SAT, possibly through better triglyceride (TG) sequestration. We hypothesized that removal of femoral SAT would increase postprandial TG through a reduction in dietary fatty acid (FA) storage. Normal-weight (means ± SD; BMI 23.9 ± 2.6 kg/m(2)) women (n = 29; age 45 ± 6 yr) were randomized to femoral...
BACKGROUND Capsinoids from the Capsicum genus of plants are nonpungent capsaicin-related substances with effects on metabolism and body weight in animals. OBJECTIVES Our objectives were to explore the safety and efficacy of capsinoids taken orally (6 mg/d) for weight loss, fat loss, and change in metabolism and to examine whether candidate genes are predictors of capsinoid response. DESIGN ...
