Zusammenfassung: | Objective:
The objective of this study was to systematically evaluate the molecular basis of the association between visceral fat mass and plasma plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) levels in man.
Design:
A comprehensive approach comprising observational,
in vitro
, and human intervention studies.
Measurements and results:
We confirmed an exclusive relationship between visceral fat and plasma PAI-1 levels (
