Epicardial Fat Volume (EFV) represents a valuable predictor of cardio- and cerebrovascular events. However, the manual procedures for EFV calculation, diffused in clinical practice, are highly time-consuming technicians or physicians often involve significant intra- inter-observer variances. To reduce processing time improve results repeatability, we propose computer-assisted tool that automati...
INTRODUCTION We have recently shown that in high cholesterol-fed rabbits, the sensitivity of epicardial adipose tissue to changes in dietary fat is higher than that of subcutaneous adipose tissue. Although the effects of diabetes on epicardial adipose tissue thickness have been studied, the influence of diabetes on profile of epicardial free fatty acids (FFAs) has not been studied. The aim of t...
Epicardial adipose tissue is a source of pro-inflammatory cytokines and has been linked to the development of coronary artery disease. No study has systematically assessed the relationship between local epicardial fat volume (EFV) and myocardial perfusion defects. We analyzed EFV in patients undergoing SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging combined with computed tomography (CT) for attenuation cor...
BACKGROUND Epicardial fat has a role in cardiovascular diseases. OBJECTIVES To assess epicardial fat and its relation with carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) in obese adolescents with metabolic syndrome (MetS). PATIENTS AND METHODS The study included 60 obese adolescents and 25 control subjects. According to the presence or absence of MetS, obese subjects were divided into two subgroups. ...
Early observations of cardiac morphology in obesity focused primarily on the prominence of epicardial fat. These include anecdotal descriptions by such luminaries as René Laennec, William Harvey, and Jean Nicholas Corvisart. In 1933, Smith and Willius reported autopsy findings on 135 obese patients including 4 who were severely obese. In this study heart weight increased in proportion to the de...
