Effect of Weight Loss on Cardiac Synchronization and Proinflammatory Cytokines in Premenopausal Obese Women

TL;DR: In obese women, ventricular dyssynchrony correlates with body fat, possibly through inappropriate secretion of cytokines, and weight loss represents a safe method for downregulating the inflammatory state and ameliorating cardiac function in obese women.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insulin resistance is an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis in rheumatoid arthritis

Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
