Usefulness of Echocardiographic Epicardial Adipose Tissue Assessment in Patients with Angina
… We studied the relationship of echocardiographic epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) to coronary artery disease (CAD) risk factors, including the metabolic syndrome (MS), and the extent of coronary atherosclerosis. BACKGROUND: The clinical significance of EAT for CAD, which has been observed during …

Epicardial Adipose Tissue: Relationship with Cardiovascular Disease and the Effect of Therapeutic Interventions
… mediastinal visceral fat and, in particular, epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) may play a vital role in the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis and atherothrombosis. A predominant hypothesis in these studies was that EAT, because of its proximity to the coronary arteries, may contribute to the …

Quantitative measurement of epicardial adipose tissue and correlation with other markers for increased cardiovascular and metabolic risk in patients with long-term diabetes mellitus type 1 // Количествено измерване на епикардната мастна тъкан и корелация с други маркери за повишен сърдечно-съдов и метаболитен риск при пациенти с дългогодишен тип ЗД 1
Захарният диабет (ЗД) е едно от най-често срещаните метаболитни заболявания и се характеризира с нарушение на метаболизма на въглехидратите, протеините и липидите. Повишеното натрупване на висцерална мастна тъкан е рисков фактор за инсулинова резистентност, която може да намали инсулиновата …

Individual and combined effects of exercise training and dietary fat on myocardial triglycerides in obese mice
Visceral adipose tissue has been suggested to have a stronger association with disease than subcutaneous adipose tissue. This is primarily due to its inflammatory nature. Epicardial adipose tissue is a type of visceral fat located on the exterior of the heart. Recent evidence suggests an …

Association of Aortic Vascular Stiffness with Epicardial and Pericardial Adipose Tissues on 64-Multidetector Computed Tomography : In Relation with Coronary Atherosclerosis
… risk factors. Coronary artery calcium (CAC) and adipose tissues are accurate markers of overall burden of coronary atherosclerosis and metabolic status, respectively. We evaluated the relation of vascular stiffness with epicardial (EAT) and pericardial (PAT) adipose tissues, as well as the …
