- 2From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 33, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedObjective: To compare the predictive role of abdominal fat distribution by computed tomography (CT) with that of total abdominal fat by sagittal abdominal diameter (SAD) on cardiovascular risk in severe obesity....
- 3From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 33, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedObjective: To compare the association of obesity and abdominal obesity with cardiometabolic risk factor burden and global estimated coronary heart disease (CHD) risk among multiethnic US adults. Design:...
- 4From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 33, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedBackground: Differences in behavioral phenotypes between the two most common subtypes of Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) (chromosome 15q deletions and maternal uniparental disomy 15 (UPD) indicate that distinct neural...
- 5From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 33, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedObjective: Common diseases often have an inflammatory component reflected by associated markers such as serum C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. Circulating CRP levels have also been associated with adipose tissue as well...
- 6From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 33, Issue 2) Peer-ReviewedObjective: Alcohol consumption promotes insulin sensitivity. In obesity, a decrease in body fat levels decreases the risk of developing insulin resistance; therefore, it is possible that alcohol improves insulin...
