Linking Epicardial Adipose Tissue to Atrial Remodeling: Clinical Implications of Strain Imaging

Hearts
Atrial fibrillation is a prevalent cardiac arrhythmia influenced by multifactorial mechanisms, including the emerging role of epicardial adipose tissue. Left atrial epicardial adipose tissue, through its endocrine and paracrine activities, contributes to

Decreased adiponectin and increased inflammation expression in epicardial adipose tissue in coronary artery disease

Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2011
Background Disorders of endocrine substances in epicardial adipose tissue are known causes of coronary artery disease (CAD). Adiponectin is associated with cardiovascular disease.

The Relationship Between Epicardial Adipose Tissue and Visceral Adiposity Indexes in Individuals Without Established Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease and Diabetes Mellitus

Endocrinology Research and Practice, 2023
Objective: Visceral adipose tissue performs an important role in the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Expressing its close association with epicardial adipose tissue simplifies the understanding of visceral adipose tissue in terms ...

Epicardial adipose tissue in contemporary cardiology

Nature Reviews Cardiology, 2022
Interest in epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is growing rapidly, and research in this area appeals to a broad, multidisciplinary audience. EAT is unique in its anatomy and unobstructed proximity to the heart and has a transcriptome and secretome very different from that of other fat depots.

Epicardial and Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue Fatty Acids Profiles in Diabetic and Non-Diabetic Patients Candidate for Coronary Artery Bypass Graft

BioImpacts, 2013
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.

Silk Fibroin for Cardiovascular Medical Devices: Review of Material Properties, Applications, and Clinical Potential

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Silk fibroin is an attractive natural biomaterial that can be engineered into diverse cardiovascular constructs, including vascular grafts, cardiac patches, heart valves, and stent coatings. Its tunable biological and mechanical properties have driven substantial preclinical progress; however, widespread clinical translation in cardiovascular ...

Descriptive, stratigraphic, and morpho‐functional study of the myocardium and myocardial bridges in domestic pig hearts

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The heart is the central organ of the cardiovascular system. The myocardium is composed of a three‐dimensional network of fibers arranged in clockwise and counterclockwise helices, which are essential for proper cardiac contraction. This study aimed to describe the stratigraphic and morpho‐functional pattern of the porcine myocardium to ...

The Role of Quantitative Assessment of Visceral Adipose Tissue of the Heart as a Predictor for Cardiovascular Events

Вестник рентгенологии и радиологии, 2020
Objective of this article – to evaluate possibilities to visualize cardiac visceral adipose tissue by echocardiography, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonanse imaging (MRI) and to systematize data on its physiological and pathological roles. To
