Breast Adiposity: Menopausal Status Impact and its Influence on Glycemic and Anthropometric Metabolic Parameters
Authors' conclusion
The BA was related to different adverse body composition and metabolic factors in women in postmenopause. The results suggest that there might be a relevant BrAT endocrine role during menopause, with mechanisms yet to be clarified, thus opening up research perspectives on the subject and potential clinical implications.
