Abstract: BackgroundArterial stiffness is an established marker of cardiovascular risk and an independent predictor of cardiovascular disease (CVD) events and mortality in kidney transplant (KT) patients. Adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein (A-FABP), a novel adipokine, is positively… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/liv.14021
Abstract: Serum adipocyte fatty acid‐binding protein (A‐FABP) is closely correlated to metabolic disorders such as obesity and insulin resistance (IR). Non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a typical feature of IR in the liver. The aim… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2021.589206
Abstract: It has been increasingly recognized that inflammation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease (CVD). In obesity, adipose tissue inflammation, especially in the visceral fat depots, contributes to systemic inflammation and promotes… read more here.
