Adiponectine and Sd-LDL, can they reflect visceral fat accumulation rather than abdominal circumference?

在日本，诊断代谢综合征时，“男性腹围85 cm以上，女性腹围90 cm以上”是一个必要的标准。但是腹围会受到测量者和被测量者的影响。在这项研究中，四种生物标志物胰岛素，Sd-LDL，脂联素和大分子脂联素在接受CT内脏脂肪测量的人中进行了测定。对内脏脂肪堆积与这些标准之间的关系进行分析发现，腹围是内脏脂肪堆积的最相关预测因素。在这些生物标志物中，脂联素与内脏脂肪测量的相关性最强。

For diagnosing Metabolic syndrome in Japan,"The Abdominal circumference of the male is 85cm or more, and the female is 90cm or more," is a required criteria. But abdominal circumference can be affected by both the person who is measuring and who is measured. In this study, the four biomarkers insulin, Sd-LDL, adiponectin, and macromolecular adiponectin were determined in people who received a visceral fat measurement by CT during their complete physical examination. An analysis of the relation between the visceral fat accumulations with these criteria found abdominal circumference to be the most relevant predictor of visceral fat accumulation. Among the biomarkers, adiponectin had the strongest association with visceral fat measurements.
