Abstract excerpt

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Preferential visceral adipose tissue (VAT) accumulation has been clearly associated with insulin resistance. In contrast, the impact of visceral obesity on beta cell function is controversial. METHODS: In 62 non-diabetic women and men (age 24-69 years, BMI 21-39 kg/m2), we measured VAT and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) fat mass by magnetic resonance imaging. We also measured insulin secretion...
