Correlation analysis between epicardial adipose tissue and acute coronary syndrome.
Sci Rep

Department of Pathology, The Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University, Shijiazhuang, Hebei, China.
To investigate the correlation between the density and volume of epicardial adipose tissue(EAT)and acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This study included 355 subjects (mean age: 60.65 ± 9.

Lifestyle-related diseases, such as atherosclerosis and diabetes, are now considered to be a series of diseases caused by chronic inflammation. Adipose tissue is considered to be an endocrine organ that not only plays a role in lipid storage, heat production, and buffering, but also produces physiologically active substances and is involved in chronic inflammation. Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) surrounding blood vessels similarly produces inflammatory and anti-inflammatory physiologically active substances that act on blood vessels either directly or via the bloodstream.

Department of Cardiology, The Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University, 99#, Huaihai West Road, Xuzhou, 221002, China.
Background: Previous studies have shown that epicardial edipose tissue(EAT) appears to be associated with myocardial inflammation and fibrosis, but this is not clear in patients with new-onset atrial arrhythmias after STEMI. The present study focused on using CMR to assess the association of epicardial fat with myocardial inflammation and fibrosis and its predictive value in patients with new-onset atrial arrhythmias after STEMI.
Methods: This was a single-centre, retrospective study.
Near-Infrared Spectroscopic Mapping of the Human Epicardium.

Department of Electrical Engineering, Columbia University, New York, New York, USA.
Epicardial catheter ablation is necessary to address ventricular tachycardia targets located far from the endocardium, but epicardial adipose tissue and coronary blood vessels can complicate ablation. We demonstrate that catheter-based near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) can identify these obstacles to guide ablation. Eighteen human ventricles were mapped ex vivo using NIRS catheters with optical source-detector separations (SDSs) of 0.

Computed tomography (CT)-derived Epicardial Adipose Tissue (EAT) is linked to cardiovascular disease outcomes. However, its role in patients undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) and the interplay with aortic stenosis (AS) cardiac damage (CD) remains unexplored. We aim to investigate the relationship between EAT characteristics, AS CD, and all-cause mortality.
