Changes in the Visceral Adiposity Index (VAI) Among Obese Older Adults After a 12-Month Exercise and Diet Intervention

Objectives The Visceral Adiposity Index (VAI) was developed to estimate adipose tissue dysfunction as well as visceral fat distribution. In an ancillary analysis of the CROSSROADS Study (clinicaltrials.gov #{"type":"clinical-trial","attrs":{"text":"NCT00955903","term_id":"NCT00955903"}}NCT00955903), this study investigated the effects of exercise with and without intentional energy restriction on VAI changes among older adults with obesity.
