Relationship between central obesity and cardiovascular hemodynamic indices in postmenopausal women. 2004

Noha H Farag, and Scott C Matthews, and Eva Brzezinski, and Richard A Nelesen, and Paul J Mills

The impact of body fat distribution on cardiovascular hemodynamics in postmenopausal women is not clear. In a sample of healthy postmenopausal women, greater central body fat distribution was associated with higher peripheral resistance, triglycerides, and total cholesterol as well as lower cardiac and stroke indexes.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D009765 Obesity A status with BODY WEIGHT that is grossly above the recommended standards, usually due to accumulation of excess FATS in the body. The standards may vary with age, sex, genetic or cultural background. In the BODY MASS INDEX, a BMI greater than 30.0 kg/m2 is considered obese, and a BMI greater than 40.0 kg/m2 is considered morbidly obese (MORBID OBESITY).

D001823 Body Composition The relative amounts of various components in the body, such as percentage of body fat. Body Compositions,Composition, Body,Compositions, Body
D001824 Body Constitution The physical characteristics of the body, including the mode of performance of functions, the activity of metabolic processes, the manner and degree of reactions to stimuli, and power of resistance to the attack of pathogenic organisms.

D000273 Adipose Tissue Specialized connective tissue composed of fat cells (ADIPOCYTES). It is the site of stored FATS, usually in the form of TRIGLYCERIDES. In mammals, there are two types of adipose tissue, the WHITE FAT and the BROWN FAT. Their relative distributions vary in different species with most adipose tissue being white.
