Background Liposuction is a procedure to reduce the volume of subcutaneous fat by physical force. Intracellular storage fat is composed of triglyceride, whereas circulating fat particles exist as cholesterol or triglycerol bound to carrier proteins. It is unavoidable that the storage form of fat particles enters the circulation system after these particles are physiologically destroyed. To date, however, no studies have clarified the fatal characteristics of fat embolism that occurs after the subclinical phase of free fat particles. Methods A mixture of human lipoaspirate and normal saline (1:100, 0.2 mL) was injected into the external jugular vein of rats, weighing 200 g on average. Biopsy specimens of the lung and kidney were examined at 12-hour intervals until postoperative 72 hours. The deposit location and transport of the injected free fat particles were confirmed histologically by an Oil Red O stain. Results Inconsistent with previous reports, free fat particles were transported from the intravascular space to the parenchyma. At 24 hours after infusion, free fat particles deposited in the vascular lumen were confirmed on the Oil Red O stain. At 72 hours after infusion, free fat particles were accumulated compactly within the parenchymal space near the perivascular area. Conclusions Many surgeons are aware of the fatal results and undiscovered pathophysiologic mechanisms of free fat particles. Our results indicate that free fat particles, the storage form of fat that has been degraded through a physiological process, might be removed through a direct transport mechanism and phagocytotic uptake.

The research was designed to study the effect of different fat sources and levels on Body lipid metabolizm and immune responses in Sprague-Dawely strain male rats. These effect of different fat sources compared with sesame Oil, Perilla oil and Beet tallow. Fat sources were divided into 3 groups respectively 7%, 15%, 30% fat level on diet weight basis. The experimental period was 54days. 1) The body weight gain was significantly low in NF group. In Sesame oil group and perilla oil group, low fat level groups were higher than medium, high fat level groups. But in Beef tallow group, high fat level groups were higher than low and Medium groups. 2) The weight of liver, kidney and epididymal fat ped tend to increse with increasing body weight. 3) The contents of triglyceride and total lipid in serum were significantly different with dietary fat sources and Perilla oil group was the lowest. 4) The contents of triglyceride and total lipid in liver were significantly different with dietary fat levels and high fat level group was higher than low fat level group. 5) Perilla oil group, compared with Beef tallow group, showed the higher excretion of cholesterol through feces and the higher deposit of cholesterol in liver. Therefore serum cholesterol level of Perilla oil group was lower than that of Beef tallow group. But eventhough Sesame oil is vegetable oil, Sesame oil did not showed an effect like Perllia oil on serum cholesterol level. 6) Weight of thymus decreased with fat levels particularly in vegetale oil. And it had on effect on mitogen response, mitogen response decreased with fat level in vegetable oil. But in Beef tallow, there was no difference in fat level.

The effect of dietary fat on the immunotoxicity of chloramphenicol was investigated in mice, sensitized and challenged with sheep red blood cells. Chloramphenicol suppressed more cell-mediated immunity than humoral immunity. The saturated fat diet elevated humoral and cell-mediated immunotoxicity, whereas the unsaturated fat diet decreased humoral immunotoxicity, but elevated cell-mediated immunotoxicity of chloramphenicol. Especially, the normal diet in saturated and unsaturated fat restored immunosuppressive effect of chloramphenicol compared to the saturated fat diet and the unsaturated fat diet.

본 연구는 비 조영 복부 CT 검사를 한 무증상 한국인을 대상으로 L1-S1 inter vertebral disc level에 따른 전체지방 면적, 피하지방 면적, 내장지방 면적 간의 차이를 비교 분석하여 최대지방면적(㎠)을 가지는 위치를 알아보았다. 전체지방 면적의 최대지방비를 보이는 위치는 남자 L2-3, L3-4, L4-5, 여자 L4-5, L5-S1에서 측정한 전체지방 면적이다. 피하지방 면적의 최대지방비를 보이는 위치는 남자 L4-5에서 측정한 피하지방 면적이며, 여자는 L4-5, L5-S1에서 측정한 피하지방 면적이다. 내장지방 면적의 최대지방비를 보이는 위치는 남자 L1-2, L2-3에서 측정한 내장지방 면적이며, 여자는 측정 위치에 따른 내장지방 면적의 차이는 없었다. L4-5 inter vertebral disc level에서 복부 지방측정을 하는 것이 일반적이지만, 넓게는 국적, 인종, 성별 등에 따라 좁게는 연구 대상자에 따라 지방 분포 특성이 다르다. 그러므로 연구목적에 따라 어떤 위치를 선택할 것인지 연구 자료를 통해 분석하고, 선택한 위치가 적절한 이유에 대해 언급할 필요가 있다고 생각된다.

Background Many authors have researched ways to optimize fat grafting by looking for a technique that offers safe and long-term fat survival rate. To date, there is no standardized protocol. We designed a "hydraulic system technique" optimizing the relationship among the quantity of injected fat, operative time, and material cost to establish fat volume cutoffs for a single procedure. Methods Thirty-six patients underwent fat grafting surgery and were organized into three groups according to material used: standard, "1-track," and "2-tracks" systems. The amount of harvested and grafted fat as well as material used for each procedure was collected. Operating times were recorded and statistical analysis was performed to establish the relationship with the amount of treated fat. Results In 15 cases the standard system was used (mean treated fat 72 [30-100] mL, mean cost 4.23 ± 0.27 euros), in 11 cases the "1-track" system (mean treated fat 183.3 [120-280] mL, mean cost 7.63 ± 0.6 euros), and in 10 cases the "2-tracks" one (mean treated fat 311[220-550] mL, mean cost 12.47 ± 1 euros). The mean time difference between the standard system and the "1-track" system is statistically significant starting from three fat syringes (90 mL) in 17.66 versus 6.87 minutes. The difference between the "1-track" system and "2-tracks" system becomes statistically significant from 240 mL of fat in 15 minutes ("1-track") versus 9.3 minutes for the "2-tracks" system. Conclusion Data analysis would indicate the use of the standard system, "1-track," and "2-tracks" to treat an amount of fat < 90 mL of fat, 90 ÷ 240 mL of fat, and ≥ 240 mL of fat, respectively.

The relationship between fat intake and breast cancer has been debated for a long period of time. Animal, ecological, and case-control studies have supported that dietary fat increases breast cancer risk. However, cohort studies have not support any strong association between dietary fat intake and breast cancer risk. It has not been clear whether fat per se or some specific type of fat is responsible for the increased risk. Recently, a few cohort studies have found some positive association between specific types of fat intake, but not overall fat intake and breast cancer risk. In this review, the findings from previous studies will be summarized with advantages and disadvantages of different types of study design and recent findings will be introduced.

The consumer demands for quality of meats has become diverse in recent years. The present paper describes mainly the technology to improve the broiler meat quality with special reference to reducing fat contents in edible meats which is the heart of the quality constraints. Abdominal fat deposition in broilers was reduced by feeding of medium-chain triglycerides(MCT), suggesting MCT feeding is useful to produce broiler meat with low fat content. A phase feeding system to aim at improving meat quality that is mainly comprised with partial replacement of dietary protein into phase during 4∼6 weeks increased edible meat yields and reduced abdominal fat deposition and fat contents in breast and thigh meats. Whiteness of fat tissue was intensified by feeding beef tallow or lard in place of yellow grease. Feeding Phaffia yeast containing astaxanthin increased redness of breast and thigh meats and improved visual appearance of meats which may be preferential for consumers. Feeding fish oil reduced abdominal fat deposition and increased EPA and DHA contents of fat tissues. These procedures could be used for manipulation of meat quality to meet consumer demands.

Objectives: Epicardial fat is true visceral fat that is known to be associated with metabolic syndrome, high abdominal fat, insulin resistance, coronary artery diseases, low coronary flow reserve and subclinical atherosclerosis. Dampness-Phlegm pattern is one of the pattern diagnosis of traditional Korean medicine. Previous studies showed that Dampness-Phlegm pattern is associated with hypertension, dyslipidemia, metabolic syndrome. This study is intended to find association between Dampness-Phlegm pattern and epicardial fat thickness. Methods: This study was a community-based single center trial. Ischemic stroke patients within 30 days after their ictus were enrolled. Epicardial fat thickness was measured using transthoracic echocardiography. Other measured and obtained variables are medical history, weight, height, body mass index, fasting blood glucose, cholesterol, triglycerol, high density lipoprotein, lipid and low density lipoprotein. Results: Three hundred sixty six were enlisted, and one hundred forty were diagnosed with the Dampness-Phlegm pattern. Dampness-Phlegm pattern group had significantly thicker epicardial fat. Binary logistic regression also showed statistically significant result. Conclusions: This study showed close association between epicardial fat and Dampness-Phlegm pattern. This result suggests a clue to standardization of pattern identification.

Euccal fat pad is special fat tissue which is different from subdermal fat. Anatomically, buccal fat pad is easy to harvest in the course of dental surgery procedure. In 1802, it was introduced by Bichat, Since Egyedi used buccal fat pad flap for the closure of oro-antral fistula and oro-nasal fistula, it has been widely used as an alternative method for the reconstruction of small to medium-sized intraoral defects in oral and mzxillofacial surgery. Kim et al. reported successful results in the all cases they applied buccal fat pad for the reconstruction of intraoral defect from their 31 months follow-up data. Because intraonal wounds are difficult to complete the layered suture and there are high risks of infection related with wound dental implant surgery, double layer closure using some kind of local flaps or other procedure is recommended. So we are to introduce the useful applications of the pedicled buccal fat pad in the dental surgery procedure from the various case presentations.

This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of Acanthopanacis Cortex boiling extract solutions on the fat accumulation in the obese rats induced by the oral high fat administration for six weeks. Total cholesterol, neutral fat and adipose acid of ACR groups were lower than the control group. During the feeding experiment, LDL and VLDL were increased while HDL was decreased in all groups. Insulin and cortisol were higher than the control group, due to the fat accumulation. Based on the above results, it was shown that it is possible to improve fat accumulation induced by high fat dietary through using the oral administration of Acanthopanacis Cortex boiling extract solutions.
