Journal ArticleDOI

Abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, and metabolic syndrome in a southern European population.

TL;DR: AO, expressed as WC, appears to be a good indicator of risk for IR and the MS, particularly in non-obese subjects (BMI<30), whereas those for the MS are IR, WC, and age.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contribution of hyperammonemia and inflammatory factors to cognitive impairment in minimal hepatic encephalopathy.

TL;DR: The data reported show that in patients with liver diseases, cognitive impairment may appear before progression to cirrhosis if hyperammonemia and inflammation are high enough, even without liver disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Outcome of Esophageal Function and 24-hour Esophageal pH Monitoring after Vertical Banded Gastroplasty and Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass

TL;DR: RYGBP is significantly better than VBG as an anti-reflux procedure, and had better weight loss than in VBG patients, but 1 year after surgery the results were significantly better in RyGBP patients (70% excess weight loss) than inVBG patients (46% extra weight loss).
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of olive and sunflower oils on low density lipoprotein level, composition, size, oxidation and interaction with arterial proteoglycans

TL;DR: Three properties of LDL: circulating levels, oxidizability, and affinity with intima proteoglycans, that may modulate its atherogenicity, were shifted in a favorable direction by diets rich in linoleic acid and natural antioxidants.
Journal ArticleDOI

A study of insulin resistance using the minimal model in nondiabetic familial combined hyperlipidemic patients

TL;DR: A higher degree of insulin resistance relative to control values appears to be an integral part of the metabolic derangements observed in FCH, and central-trunk obesity exacerbates the insulin resistance syndrome.
