Pericardial Fat Is Associated with Coronary Artery Calcification in Non-Dialysis Dependent Chronic Kidney Disease Patients
Pericardial fat (PF) a component of visceral adipose tissue has been consistently related to coronary atherosclerosis in the general population. This study evaluated the association between PF and coronary artery calcification (CAC) in non-dialysis dependent chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. This is a post-hoc cross sectional analysis of the baseline of a prospective cohort of 117 outward ...
متن کاملAssociation of serum hepatocyte growth factor with pericardial fat volume in patients with coronary artery disease.
Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), as a metabolic regulator, was shown to be secreted by adipose tissue and associated with metabolic syndrome (MS) and coronary artery disease (CAD). Pericardial fat, as a visceral fat, was found to be a significant predictor of CAD. We investigated the relationship between serum HGF levels and pericardial fat volume (PFV) in individuals aged between 40-65 years wi...
متن کاملPericardial fat and postoperative atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass surgery.
[3], as we have a 12-year survival of 75% for left internal mammary artery (LIMA) and saphenous vein grafts and 85% for LIMA with the radial as the second graft, compared with theirs of 31 and 49%, respectively. Obesity differences between the USA and Europe may be an issue [4]. It should not be forgotten that speculation on hormone status and outcomes remains an association and not a mechanism...
متن کاملAssosiation of Epicardial and Pericardial Fat Thickness with Coronary Artery Disease
INTRODUCTION Visceral adipose tissue is a known important risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD). While some studies have suggested relationship between epicardial fat thickness (EFT) and CAD, there are no adequate studies for pericardial fat thickness (PFT). The aim of this study was to determine the association of EFT and PFT with CAD. METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted...
