Visceral Adiposity Is an Independent Determinant of Hypercoagulability as Measured by Thrombin Generation in Morbid Obesity
Abstract Introduction Increased visceral adipose tissue (VAT) has been shown to be associated with the development of insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, stroke, and ischemic heart disease. It remains unknown whether fat distribution impacts on coagulation markers and/or the risk of ve...
