Chapter 3. The Relationship Between DXA-based and Anthropometric Measures of Visceral Fat and Morbidity in Women. Abstract Excess accumulation of visceral fat is a prominent risk factor for cardiovascular and metabolic morbidity. While CT is the gold standard to measure visceral adiposity, this is often not possible for epidemiological studies - thus proxy measures of visceral fat are required. Study aims were to a) identify a valid proxy measure of VAT area, b) estimate VAT heritability and c) assess visceral fat association with morbidity in comparison to body fat distribution. A validation sample of 54 females measured for detailed body fat composition - assessed using CT, DXA, and anthropometry – was used to evaluate previously published predictive models of CT-measured visceral fat. Based upon a validated model, we realised an estimate of abdominal VAT area for a population-based sample of 3,457 female volunteer twins and estimated VAT area heritability using a classical twin study design. Regression and residuals analyses were used to assess the relationship between adiposity and morbidity. Published models applied to the validation sample explained >80% of the variance in CT-measured visceral fat. Narrow sense VAT area heritability was estimated to be 58% (95% CI: 51-66%) with a shared familial component of 24% (17-30%). VAT area is strongly associated with T2D, hypertension (HT), subclinical atherosclerosis and liver function tests. In particular, VAT area is associated with T2D, HT and alanine aminotransaminase liver function, conditional upon association with DXA total abdominal fat and BMI. DXA and anthropometry measures can be used to derive reliable estimates of visceral fat. Visceral fat is heritable and appears to mediate association between adiposity and morbidity. This observation is consistent with hypotheses that suggest excess visceral adiposity is causally related to cardiovascular and metabolic disease.

Contribution of Student‌ For this manuscript, the student collected the data (with the help of the National Xxxxxx’x Disease Program), conducted all statistical analysis presented, created the figures and tables, and wrote the manuscript, with editorial assistance from Xx. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx. Abstract‌ Introduction: Leprosy (also known as Xxxxxx’x Disease) is a disease that is diagnosed in approximately 160 people in the USA each year. Recent studies have shown different forms of transmission in the southern US (zoonotic versus person-to-person), but epidemiologic data are lacking about factors associated with multibacillary infection, the most infectious form. Purpose: To examine if location of birth, dichotomized between domestic (United States) born and born abroad, is related to disease presentation (multibacillary versus paucibacillary) in cases of leprosy in Georgia when controlling for other demographic characteristics. Methods: Data was collected from surveillance reports on 123 leprosy patients from the National Xxxxxx’x Disease Program who had been reported by or lived in the state of Georgia since the early 1900’s. Two logistic regression models were built, one using all years and one using post-1995 cases. Location of birth was the variable of interest and the outcome was type of leprosy (multibacillary vs. paucibacillary). Sex, age, and ethnicity were controlled for.
