| Core Tip |
This study revealed a nonlinear relationship between visceral fat area (VFA) and red blood cell-related indices, specifically hematocrit, hemoglobin and red blood cell count, in adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The association was more pronounced at lower VFA levels (inflection point approximately 45 cm2) and in nonobese individuals. These findings suggest that routine hematological markers serve as accessible indicators of visceral adiposity burden. This emphasizes the importance of integrated metabolic and hematological monitoring to better assess cardiometabolic risk in T2D management. |
