From: Endotoxins are associated with visceral fat mass in type 1 diabetes
(A) Visceral fat mass (g) according to LPS and triglyceride tertiles (low/medium/high) in subjects with type 1 diabetes. Higher visceral fat mass was observed in those with a combination of high LPS activity/high triglyceride concentration (N = 50) compared to those with low LPS activity/low triglyceride concentration (N = 43, p < 0.001). (B) Visceral fat mass (g) according to LPS and hsCRP tertiles (low/medium/high) in subjects with type 1 diabetes. Higher visceral fat mass was observed in those with a combination of high LPS activity/high hsCRP concentration (N = 32) compared to low LPS activity/low hsCRP concentration (N = 38, p < 0.001).
