Association of visceral adipose tissue with albuminuria and interaction between visceral adiposity and diabetes on albuminuria

ConclusionsHigh VFA may represent an independent risk factor for albuminuria. The amount of visceral fat may affect the effect of diabetes on albuminuria. The higher the visceral fat, the stronger the correlation between diabetes and albuminuria should be present. We suppose an additive interaction between VFA and diabetes on the effect of albuminuria.
