Letter by Tsuda Regarding Article, "Association Between Visceral and Subcutaneous Adipose Depots and Incident Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors".
BACKGROUND Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) vary in volume and quality. We evaluated whether fat volume or attenuation (indirect measure of quality) predicts metabolic risk factor changes. METHODS AND RESULTS Framingham Heart Study Multi-detector Computed Tomography Substudy participants (n=1730, 45% women) were followed up over a mean of 6.2 years. Baseline...
متن کاملCross-Sectional Associations Bet ween Abdominal and Thoracic Adipose Tissue Compartments and Adiponectin and Resistin in the Framingham Heart Study
OBJECTIVE To test the association of regional fat depots with circulating adiponectin and resistin concentrations and to assess the potential mediating effect of adipokines on associations between abdominal fat depots and cardiometabolic risk factors. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Participants from the Framingham Heart Study offspring cohort (n = 916, 55% women; mean age 59 years) free of cardi...
متن کاملCentral obesity as a clinical marker of adiposopathy; increased visceral adiposity as a surrogate marker for global fat dysfunction
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) is often described as 'protective'. Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) is often described as 'pathologic'. However, both SAT and VAT have protective and pathologic potential, with interdependent biologic functions. RECENT FINDINGS Most of the body's (excess) energy is stored as fat in SAT. If during positive caloric balance, SAT does not undergo ...
متن کاملAbdominal Adiposity Distribution Quantified by Ultrasound Imaging and Incident Hypertension in a General Population.
Abdominal obesity is a major risk factor for hypertension. However, different distributions of abdominal adipose tissue may affect hypertension risk differently. The main purpose of this study was to explore the association of subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue (SAT) and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) with incident hypertension in a population-based setting. We hypothesized that VAT, rather t...
متن کاملVisceral and subcutaneous fat quality and cardiometabolic risk.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate whether computed tomography (CT) attenuation, as a measure of fat quality, is associated with cardiometabolic risk factors above and beyond fat quantity. BACKGROUND Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) are pathogenic fat depots associated with cardiometabolic risk. Adipose tissue attenuation in CT images is variab...
