The relation between epicardial fat thickness and metabolic syndrome
We read the article Usefulness of the epicardial fat tissue thickness as a diagnostic criterion for geriatric patients with metabolic syndrome by Kaya, et al. The authors aimed to evaluate the epicardial fat tissue thickness (EFT) as a diagnostic criterion for geriatric patients with metabolic syndrome (MetS). They concluded that EFT levels were higher in geriatric patients with MetS and can th...
متن کاملThe Association Between Metabolic Syndrome and Serum Leptin
Objectives: The relation of metabolic syndrome components, insulin resistance and leptin has been studied in elderly women. Methods & Materials: In this cross sectional study, among 225 subjects≥60 year old who were residents of Kahrizak Charity Foundation, 133 (56 men & 77 women) were selected by cluster random sampling. Fasting serum TG, Total Cholesterol, HDL, and leptin levels were measu...
متن کاملAssociation between Metabolite Profiles, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity Status
Underlying mechanisms associated with the development of abnormal metabolic phenotypes among obese individuals are not yet clear. Our aim is to investigate differences in plasma metabolomics profiles between normal weight (NW) and overweight/obese (Ov/Ob) individuals, with or without metabolic syndrome (MetS). Mass spectrometry-based metabolite profiling was used to compare metabolite levels be...
متن کاملEpicardial Adiposity in Children with Obesity and Metabolic Syndrome
OBJECTIVE Obesity increases cardiac diseases by increasing tendency to atherosclerosis. Our aim was to define epicardial adipose tissue thickness, and its related factors in obese children. METHODS Total of 94 patients were divided into obesity with metabolic syndrome (MS) (n=30), obesity without MS (n=33), and control (n=31) groups. Auxological values with fasting glucose, fasting insulin, a...
متن کاملRelationship between metabolic syndrome and epicardial fat tissue thickness in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
OBJECTIVE An increase in epicardial fat tissue (EFT) thickness was found to be associated with metabolic syndrome (MS) and ischemic heart disease. MS is a comorbidity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) resulting from the accompanying systemic inflammation. The aim of our study was to investigate the usefulness of EFT thickness to predict MS in COPD patients. METHODS COPD patients...
