Clinical significance of intraabdominal pressure and abdominal perfusion pressure in patients with acute abdominal syndrome
Elevated intraabdominal pressure (IAP) has been claimed to play a role in abdominal compartment syndrome. We assessed the correlation between the values of IAP, abdominal perfusion pressure (APP) and clinical scoring systems including SIRS, MODS and APACHE II and the patients’ survival rate in patients admitted to the ICU with acute abdomen due to ileus, intestinal perforation, peritonitis and ...
متن کاملSagittal Abdominal Diameter as the Anthropometric Measure of Cardiovascular Risk
Obesity has a profound impact on the cardiovascular disease development, and is associated with a reduced overall survival. There is a strong correlation between the central (abdominal) type of obesity and the cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Among a variety of anthropometric measurements of the abdominal fat size, sagittal abdominal diameter has been proposed as the valid measurement of ...
متن کاملSagittal Abdominal Diameter as a New Predictor for Incident Diabetes
OBJECTIVE Obesity, particularly visceral adiposity, is a major risk factor for type 2 diabetes. The commonly used obesity indicators, BMI, waist girth, and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), have limited ability to measure the visceral adipose tissue. Sagittal abdominal diameter (SAD) has been shown to predict the amount of visceral fat. So far no study has been published on its ability to predict diabe...
متن کاملValidity and reliability of the sagittal abdominal diameter as a predictor of visceral abdominal fat.
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the reliability of the sagittal abdominal diameter and its validity as a predictor of visceral abdominal fat, as well as to identify the most appropriate cut-off points to identify the area of visceral fat that is known to represent a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. DESIGN Validation study. SUBJECTS 92 healthy volunteers (57 women, 35 men), age: 20-83 y, body ...
متن کاملSagittal Abdominal Diameter and Risk of Sudden Death in Asymptomatic Middle-Aged Men
Background—Abdominal (visceral) and overall obesity are both related to coronary heart disease mortality risk; however, the relative contribution of these 2 components of fat deposit in the etiology of sudden death is unknown. Methods and Results—We used the data from 7079 asymptomatic men of the Paris Prospective Study I who were free of ischemic heart disease and who were 43 to 52 years of ag...
