Sentence examples for indicator of adipose from inspiring English sources
Surprisingly, neither agent altered plasma glycerol concentrations, which is commonly used as an indicator of adipose tissue lipolysis.
Also, plasma glycerol, which is perhaps a better indicator of adipose tissue lipolysis than free fatty acids, was not different between the three genotypes.
Our study suggests VAI is a valuable indicator of "visceral adipose function" and insulin sensitivity, and its increase is strongly associated with cardiometabolic risk.
Recently, a newly-derived anthropometric measure of obesity, the visceral adiposity index (VAI),a sex-specific index based on WC, BMI, TG, and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), has been shown to be an indicator of visceral adipose functionality [ 19].
Although BMI is considered an important cardiovascular risk factor, the prediction of visceral tissue distribution by BMI, which is an indicator of total adiposity, is governed by the contribution of subcutaneous adipose mass and is therefore flawed [ 22].

The fact that WC is a good indicator of the location of the excess adipose tissue, and that visceral fat seems to be highly related to health risk [28]; [29] most likely explains this study's observations.
