- Abstract
The article presents the results of a study on the effects of 6-month calorie restriction and exercise on serum and liver lipids and markers of liver function in overweight men and women in the U.S. The liver-to-speen ratio was linked with body mass and visceral abdominal fat adjusted for total abdominal fat. Intrahepatic lipid (IHL) was correlated with serum triglyceride and HDL-cholesterol concentrations. IHL also influenced alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALK) but not with any markers of whole-body inflammation.
