Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
- %SFA expressed as relative amount of SFA to the total amount of fatty acids. - DNL expressed as percentage of palmitate in very-low-density-lipoprotein (VLDL)-TG originating from DNL

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
- Liver fat composition expressed as relative amount of MUFA and PUFA to the total amount of fatty acids, in addition to %SFA - Adipose tissue fat composition expressed as relative amount of SFA, MUFA and PUFA to the total amount of fatty acids - Adipose tissue fat composition expressed as relative amount of linoleic acid, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) to the total amount of fatty acids. - Hepatic, peripheral and whole body insulin sensitivity expressed as % suppression of endogenous glucose production (EGP), rate of disappearance (Rd) in *mol/kg/min and glucose infusion rate (GIR) in *mol/kg/min. - Muscle insulin sensitivity expressed as determinants/markers for muscle insulin sensitivity in muscle biopsy (oxphos, GLUT4, intramyocellular lipids (IMCL).
