  1. *Age, body mass index, high sensitive C-reactive protein, physical activity, total caloric intake, and FFA or adiponectin levels were included as co-variables (similar results were obtained after including triglycerides, HDL-C and glucose plasma levels in the model). AVF = Abdominal visceral fat; FFA = Free fatty acids; ADIPO = Adiponectin; HDL-C = High density lipoprotein cholesterol. Cut-off values are defined in material method section.
