Gut Microbiota Mediates the Association between Diet Quality and Ectopic Adiposity: The Multiethnic Cohort Adiposity Phenotype Study

2026-04-10

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Higher-quality diets have been associated with lower levels of ectopic fat deposited in the viscera and liver, which is hypothesized to be mediated in part by the gut microbiota. <h4>Objectives</h4> We tested this hypothesis in a multi-ethnic imaging study using global (microbiome-wide) testing as well as a high-dimensional multiple-mediators regression framework to identify bacterial genera...
