Background: This study was performed to determine the clinical usefulness of measurement of visceral fat area (VFA) using bioimpedance analysis in relation with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), diastolic dysfunction parameters, and decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Methods: A cross-sectional analysis was performed on 1028 patients with eGFR≥ 60 ml/min/1.73 m 2, aged 40-64 years, and who underwent routine health check-ups. Subjects were divided into tertiles based on their VFA. Associations of VFA with …
