Microvascular dysfunction: a direct link among BMI, waist circumference and glucose homeostasis in young overweight/obese normoglycemic women
International Journal of Obesity, 10/13/09

Kraemer–Aguiar LG et al. – In the investigated group of young OW/obese women, the direct correlation between post–load PG and TRBCVmax links microvascular parameters with metabolic variables and suggests a key role for microcirculation in OB–related metabolic disorders.
