Epicardial adipose tissue is associated with the development of cardiovascular disease and its increase is positively correlated with blood pressure elevation in hypertensive individuals. In the literature, being physically active has been shown to be effective in the treatment of hypertension and reduction of epicardial adipose tissue thickness. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between epicardial adipose tissue thickness and sedentary time, physical activity level and physical performance in patients with hypertension.

Background: The mortality of patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) raised rapidly in last decade and obesity are becoming the major cause to CAD progression, thus inducing heart failure preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). However, why visceral adipocytes show different effects on healthy and ageing cardiomyocytes is less known.
Methods: GSE251971 was downloaded and Venn diagram between visceral adipocyte genes genes and DEGs was performed to obtain visceral adipocyte-associated DEGs in heart failure.

BACKGROUND Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) and soluble suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (sST2) are valuable markers of myocardial fibrosis, but the relationship between EAT and sST2 remains controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the role of combined EAT measurements and levels of sST2 and the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) in patients with diagnosis of non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). MATERIAL AND METHODS This was a single-center retrospective observational study.

Purpose Of Review: This review evaluates the role of vascular inflammation in patients who develop myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA). It also introduces pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) and epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) as possible biomarkers for risk prediction in patients with non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD).
Recent Findings: PCAT and EAT contribute to the development and progression of coronary artery inflammation and plaque vulnerability.
