AIMS To evaluate the practical use of the single slice measurement of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) at the level of the left main coronary artery (EATLM) in predicting the presence of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). METHODS AND RESULTS Quantification of EATTotal and EATLM was performed on non-contrast CT scans of consecutive patients (without history of revascularization, cardiac...
BACKGROUND Lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum (LHIS) is a benign disorder characterized by fat accumulation in the interatrial septum (IAS). The purpose of the study was to analyze the incidental detection of LHIS in patients with various clinical conditions, referred to ECG-gated multislice computed tomography (ECG-MSCT) examinations of the heart. MATERIAL/METHODS The ECG-MSCT ...
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is increasingly recognized among HIV-infected patients, and carefully performed cohort studies show increased relative risk ratios of 1.5–2.0 [1,2]. Moreover, these studies suggest that traditional risk factors, while accounting for some degree of this increase in relative risk, do not account for all or even a major portion of the increased risk [1]. Insights into ...
OBJECTIVES Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a component of visceral adiposity with endocrine and paracrine effects. It is also associated with metabolic syndrome (MetS). In this study, we investigated the relationship between EAT thickness and hypertension that is a component of MetS. STUDY DESIGN Enrolled in this study were 140 hypertensive patients and 60 age- and sex-similar normotensive...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is common in patients with heart failure (HF), contributes to the progression of cardiac disease, and is associated with adverse prognosis. Previous evidence indicates that epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is independently associated with sleep apnea in obese individuals. We explored the relationship between SDB and EAT in HF patients. METHO...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Subclinical hypothyroidism (SH) is considered to be a potential risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) thickness is also closely related to cardiovascular disorders. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether SH is associated with higher EAT thickness. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Fifty-one consecutive patients with SH and 51 healthy contr...
size quantification using non-contrast enhanced cardiac computed tomography— association with cardiovascular risk factors and gender-specific distribution in the general population: the Heinz Nixdorf Recall study. Acta Radiol 2013; [Epub ahead of print]. 18. Mohlenkamp S, Schmermund A, Lehmann N, Roggenbuck U, Dragano N, Stang A et al. Subclinical coronary atherosclerosis and resting ECG abnorm...
OBJECTIVES Epicardial fat was closely related to atrial fibrillation (AF). Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) has been proposed to be a convenient imaging tool in assessing epicardial adipose tissue (EAT). The goal of the present study was to investigate whether the EAT thickness measured on TTE was a useful parameter in predicting procedural outcomes of AF ablations. METHODS AND RESULTS A ...
