Arterial stiffness, high fasting glucose, and fatty liver as predictors for visceral obesity in middle-aged Chinese individuals: a cross-sectional study

2023-06-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> The prevalence of obesity is increasing rapidly worldwide, including in Asia. Visceral obesity, i.e., intra-abdominal fat accumulation, precedes the development of obesity-related metabolic syndrome, based on the cluster of hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, and hypertension, leading to atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease.
