  1. Visceral adiposity index raises the risk of extracranial atherosclerosis in humans (OR 1.34 (95% CI 1.02-1.77)).

    “VAI level has presented an association with the extracranial atherosclerotic plaques (T3 vs T1, OR, 1.34, 95%CI, 1.02-1.77) and burden (T3 vs T1, adjusted cOR 1.32, 95 % CI 1.00-1.73) only in females.”
