Despite significant advancements in cardiovascular diagnostic technology, physical examination signs remain credible indicators of coronary artery disease. Here, we report a case 50-year-old male patient with premature disease associated novel sign bilateral symmetrical bulging the sideburn areas face. The sideburns correspond anatomically to buccal fat pad which is composed visceral adipose ti...
It still remains controversial whether simple obesity, as measured by the body mass index (BMI), is an independent risk factor for Barrett's esophagus (BE). Recent studies have shown abdominal obesity, as defined by the waist circumference (WC) and the waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), to be a risk factor for BE, independent of the BMI, with the association between BMI and BE being no longer observed a...
Visceral fat obesity plays an essential role in the clustering of atherosclerotic multiple risk factors in the metabolic syndrome. However, the mechanism by which visceral fat obesity causes clustering of glucose intolerance, high blood pressure, and dyslipidemia remains unknown. We have proposed a “lipotoxicity theory” as the mechanism behind metabolic syndrome and its consequences: an excess ...
UNLABELLED Aims/Introduction: Visceral obesity has been suggested to be an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD); the role of adipokines in the risk for CVD is less clear. Aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between parameters of visceral obesity and index of CVD risk factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS A cross-sectional analysis of healthy males (n = 116) a...
Maternal obesity is linked with increased adverse pregnancy outcomes for both mother and child. The metabolic impact of excessive fat within the context of pregnancy is not fully understood. We used a mouse model of high fat (HF) feeding to induce maternal obesity to identify adipose tissue-mediated mechanisms driving metabolic dysfunction in pregnant and non-pregnant obese mice. As expected, c...
BACKGROUND Visceral obesity, low adiponectin, and severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are associated with cardiovascular diseases, but the interactions among these factors on endothelial dysfunction are not well known. METHODS AND RESULTS Endothelial function in 133 patients after polysomnography was evaluated as reactive hyperemia index (RHI) on reactive hyperemia peripheral arterial tonome...
The principal objective of this study was to determine whether visceral fat or liver fat is a more relevant risk factor for metabolic syndrome. A total of 98 subjects aged 18-65 yr, who visited a health promotion center in a university hospital, were enrolled in this study. Metabolic syndrome was diagnosed based on the modified National Cholesterol Education Program's Adult Treatment Panel III ...
PURPOSE This study determined which obesity measurement correlates the best with diabetes and prediabetes. MATERIALS AND METHODS This cross-sectional study enrolled 1603 subjects (611 men, 992 women; age 30-64 years) at the Cardiovascular and Metabolic Diseases Etiology Research Center. Body mass index, waist circumference, waist-height ratio, waist-hip ratio, waist-thigh ratio, and visceral ...
Purpose: We aimed to evaluate visceral and subcutaneous fat tissue its association with hepatosteatosis on computed tomography (CT) scans determine cut-off criteria for metabolic syndrome, measure abdominal obesity directly based the area (VFTA) rather than indirectly waist circumference obtain supportive findings by density measurements in addition VFTA measurements.Materials Methods: The Houn...
