Perirenal fat thickness

1. Perirenal fat thickness was not clearly linked with blood pressure variability in essential hypertension.

   “No significant association was observed between PRFT and short-term BPV.”

1. Perirenal fat thickness is linked with a higher risk of reverse-dipper pattern in essential hypertension, adjusted for confounders (+9.9% risk per 1-mm increase).

   “each 1-mm increase in PRFT remained independently associated with a 10.2%, 15.2%, and 9.9% increased risk of morning hypertension, nocturnal hypertension, and reverse-dipper pattern, respectively.”

1. Perirenal fat thickness is associated with metabolic dysfunction markers in humans (obesity).

   “peri-renal fat showed significant positive association with fasting glycemia and inverse association with HDL.”

1. Perirenal fat thickness is associated with osteoporosis in humans (postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes mellitus; adjusted for other confounding factors) (OR 1.13 (95% CI 1.04–1.23)).

   “PrFT was also independently associated with osteoporosis after adjustment for other confounding factors; the OR (95% CI) was 1.13 (1.04-1.23).”
