Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Assessment of thermogenic capacity of white adipocytes

    Thermogenic capacity of white adipocytes was measured via Positron Emission Tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) device, unit of measurement: Standardized Uptake Value (SUV)

    The SUV of white adipocytes for each patient was measured once via the PET/CT software between 10-30 May 2019.

  • Environmental temperature

    The daily environmental temperature was obtained in degrees Celsius for the period 1-1-2016 to 30-4-2019.

    The daily environmental temperature was obtained from Weather Underground (www.wunderground.com) on the 10th May 2019
