Density of ectopic fat depots predict distinct biomarkers of glycemic and insulinemic status in persons with HIV
Tissue densities, which differed significantly among the three groups, were robustly associated with various biomarkers of glycemic/insulinemic status. CT-morphometrics may enhance the detection of metabolic perturbations and diabetes risk, possibly earlier than some clinical biomarkers.
