Brown fat tracks with fewer heart and psychiatric diagnoses in 101,243 patients, and AI pinpoints the axillary depot
Among 101,243 patients at a cancer center, those with brown fat had fewer cardiovascular and psychiatric diagnoses; machine learning quantified brown fat activity in about 8,700 people, showing higher activity, especially in the axillary depot, tracked with lower odds of type 2 diabetes and coronary disease, and led to losartan as an activator in mice.
