TY - THES AB - It is unclear if different dietary weight loss strategies affect visceral adipose tissue (VAT) mass to different extents among individuals who are overweight and obese. We evaluated whether consuming a high complex-carbohydrate diet (HCCD) or a very low carbohydrate diet (VLCD) for six weeks under controlled feeding study conditions resulted in similar reductions in abdominal VAT mass. We also evaluated the relationship between change in fasting serum leptin and plasma hs-CRP concentrations and change in VAT mass during these dietary interventions AD - Oregon Health and Science University AU - Crowley, Denise DA - 2018-06-01 DO - 10.6083/HZ31DJ DO - DOI ED - Stadler, Diane ED - Horgan, Angela ED - Julia Jordan, ED - Mentor ED - Committee member ED - Committee member ID - 7860 KW - Leptin KW - C-Reactive Protein KW - Dietary Carbohydrates KW - Leptin KW - Weight Loss KW - Overweight KW - Obesity KW - Adult KW - Intra-Abdominal Fat KW - Diet, Carbohydrate-Restricted KW - Carbohydrates L1 - https://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/7860/files/crowley.denise.2018.pdf L2 - https://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/7860/files/crowley.denise.2018.pdf L4 - https://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/7860/files/crowley.denise.2018.pdf LK - https://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/7860/files/crowley.denise.2018.pdf N2 - It is unclear if different dietary weight loss strategies affect visceral adipose tissue (VAT) mass to different extents among individuals who are overweight and obese.
