Comparative relation of general, central, and visceral adiposity measures for coronary artery calcium in subjects without previous coronary events.

29 Sep 2009 It is unclear whether visceral obesity is largely responsible for an increased risk of coronary artery disease. In the present study, 1,054 men underwent coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring and abdominal computed tomography. Risk factor ... Read more...

Lipoabdominoplasty.

30 Aug 2009 BACKGROUND: Abdominoplasty is one of the most common aesthetic operations. Wide bibliographic research has revealed that there is a safe method whereby two techniques--liposuction and abdominoplasty--can be associated in the same procedure. The ... Read more...

Effects of non-invasive, 1,210 nm laser exposure on adipose tissue: results of a human pilot study.

30 Jul 2009 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Laser radiation (1,210 nm) has been previously shown to be capable of selective photothermolysis of adipose tissue in vitro when applied non-invasively. The objective of this pilot study was to evaluate the in vivo effects ... Read more...
