Recent evidence suggests that IIH is a disease of metabolic dysregulation, androgen excess, and an increased risk of cardiovascular morbidity. Here we evaluate systemic and adipose specific metabolic determinants of the IIH phenotype.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>METHODS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      In fasted, matched IIH (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 97) and control (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 43) patients, we assessed glucose and insulin homeostasis and leptin levels.

Adiposity in IIH is preferentially centripetal and is associated with increased disease activity and insulin resistance. IIH adipocytes appear transcriptionally and metabolically primed toward depot-specific lipogenesis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSION<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>These data show that IIH is a metabolic disorder in which adipose tissue dysfunction is a feature of the disease.
