Weight reduction is associated with improvement of glycemic control in Japanese men, whose hemoglobin A1C is 5.6–6.4%, with visceral fat accumulation, but not without visceral fat accumulation
AIMS/INTRODUCTION The aim of the present study was to determine whether weight reduction is associated with improvement of glycemic control in non-obese and obese subjects with or without visceral fat accumulation, whose hemoglobin A1c (A1C) is 5.6-6.4%. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 798 male subjects whose A1C levels were between 5.6% and 6.4% were divided into subgroups based on body mas...
متن کاملPlasma fat concentration increases in visceral fat obese men during high-intensity endurance exercise.
SUMMARY The purpose of this study was to investigate differences in fat metabolism between visceral fat obese (VF-Ob) and abdominal subcutaneous obese (SF-Ob) men during "high-intensity endurance exercise". Fourteen obese (body mass index >25 kg/m(2)) men were classified into two groups according to visceral fat area using computed tomography; i.e., VF-Ob (n = 7; mean age, 52.0 ± 2.5 year) and ...
متن کاملImpairment in flow-mediated vasodilatation of the brachial artery in acromegaly.
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to assess flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) of the brachial artery in patients with acromegaly. SUBJECTS AND METHODS We prospectively evaluated 25 patients with acromegaly (14 females, 11 males; aged 42 +/- 12 years; growth hormone (GH) levels 34 +/- 14 ng/ml) and 27 control subjects (15 females, 12 males; aged 45 +/- 8 years; GH levels 3 +/- 1.5 ng/ml). The p...
متن کاملFlow-mediated vasodilatation in the patients with anorexia nervosa.
OBJECTIVE To compare flow-mediated vasodilatation in patients with anorexia nervosa and healthy subjects. BACKGROUND Endothelial dysfunction is present in the patients with anorexia nervosa. However, flow-mediated vasodilatation in the patients with anorexia nervosa in comparison with control subjects has not been yet evaluated. METHODS Flow-mediated vasodilatation in the brachial artery wa...
