| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated the association between renal sinus fat volume or area and metabolic or subclinical atherosclerosis factors in Japanese men aged 40-79 years in a general population. Renal sinus fat volume and area were significantly associated with measurements of obesity, such as body weight, BMI, waist circumstance and visceral fat area. Renal sinus fat volume and area tended to be positively associated with blood pressure, glucose level and serum triglyceride level and inversely associated with serum HDL-cholesterol level and eGFR. However these results were not significant because there were much measurement error in this study, unfortunately. Proteinuria was not associated with renal sinus fat. Renal sinus fat volume and area have increased significantly for 4.7 years. We had to solve some problems about establishment of measurement system to use renal sinus fat volume or area in the clinical situation.
