Epicardial Adipose Tissue
Author: Gianluca Iacobellis
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030405702
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 198
Book Description
This book is the first authoritative and comprehensive volume dedicated to epicardial adipose tissue (EAT). It provides an up-to-date and highly illustrated synopsis of the anatomical, biomolecular, genetic, imaging features, and clinical applications of EAT and its role in cardiovascular disease. It relays to the reader a contemporary view of the emerging interplay between the heart and adiposity-related diseases. In addition, this volume discusses the clinical implications and therapeutic targets of EAT in atrial fibrillation, heart failure and coronary artery disease. Comprehensive yet focused, Epicardial Adipose Tissue: From Cell to Clinic is an essential resource for physicians, residents, fellows, and medical students in cardiology, endocrinology, primary care, and health promotion and disease prevention.

Energy Balance and Obesity
Author: Isabelle Romieu
Publisher: IARC Working Group Report
ISBN: 9789283225195
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Understanding the relationship between energy balance and obesity is essential to develop effective prevention programs and policies. The International Agency for Research on Cancer convened a Working Group of world-leading experts in December 2015 to review the evidence regarding energy balance and obesity, with a focus on low- and middle-income countries, and to consider the following scientific questions: (i) Are the drivers of the obesity epidemic related only to energy excess and/or do specific foods or nutrients play a major role in this epidemic? (ii) What are the factors that modulate these associations? (iii) Which types of data and/or studies will further improve our understanding? This book provides summaries of the evidence from the literature as well as the Working Group's conclusions and recommendations to tackle the global epidemic of obesity.

Metabolic Syndrome
Author: Isabelle Lemieux
Publisher: MDPI
ISBN: 3039439898
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
Metabolic syndrome has been the topic of countless publications. It still remains a subject of debate and some experts have even questioned its clinical relevance. Its diagnosis is nevertheless predictive of an increased risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease even in the absence of traditional risk factors. Many years ago, our team made the point that the most prevalent form of metabolic syndrome was linked to abdominal obesity, which can be found even among individuals who are not considered obese by body weight standards. Imaging techniques such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging have revealed the link between regional body fat partitioning and cardiometabolic risk. Visceral obesity is the most dangerous form of obesity, with subcutaneous obesity being associated with lower health risk. We have proposed that excess visceral fat may be a marker of subcutaneous adipose tissue dysfunction not being able to serve as a metabolic sink, causing lipid accumulation at undesired sites, a condition described as ectopic fat deposition. Among the effective approaches to prevent, delay, or manage metabolic syndrome, lifestyle changes are the key elements, with an emphasis on the importance of healthy global dietary patterns, regular physical activity, and adequate sleep quality.

ISBN: 3030106160
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 72
Book Description
This volume provides a comprehensive overview on developmental origins of health and disease regarding various factors related to the origins of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) from early life. It offers a summary of the impacts of various factors such as epigenetics; gene-environment interaction; ethnic predisposition to NCDs and their risk factors; prenatal factors; fetal programming; maternal weight status and weight gain during pregnancy; type of feeding during infancy; growth pattern during childhood; obesity; stunting; socioeconomic status; dietary and physical activity habits; as well as environmental factors including air pollution and global climate change on the development and progress of NCDs.

Clinical Implications of Obesity and Lipid-Related Parameters on Cardiometabolic Diseases
Author: Yun Kyung Cho
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
ISBN: 283253936X
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 162
Book Description
Obesity and dyslipidemia are well-known contributors to cardiometabolic disorders, including cardiovascular events, chronic kidney disease, and non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases (NAFLD). Various anthropometric measurements to evaluate obesity, especially body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) have commonly been used to predict the risk of obesity-related comorbidities. In addition, several lipid-associated parameters, such as visceral adiposity index (VAI), triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index), triglyceride-to-high-density-lipoprotein-cholesterol (TG/HDL-C), and lipid accumulation product (LAP) have been adopted to estimate future cardiometabolic risk and even mortality. Nonetheless, further research is needed to determine the clinical use of these measures for cardiometabolic outcomes, and it is currently unknown which metrics or indices convey the highest risk of future cardiometabolic comorbidities and mortality.
