Epicardial fat thickness in patients with psoriasis vulgaris

Turk Kardiyoloji Dernegi Arsivi-Archives of the Turkish Society of Cardiology, 2013
Psoriasis vulgaris is one of the most common skin disorders. Patients with psoriasis carry an excessive risk of coronary artery disease. Visceral adipose tissue around the heart affects the heart and coronaries by secreting proatherogenic mediators. It can be evaluated easily by measurement of epicardial fat thickness (EFT).

Peri-Aortic Fat Tissue Thickness in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients [PDF]

Peritoneal Dialysis International: Journal of the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis, 2012
Background Thoracic peri-aortic fat tissue (PFT) and epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) are metabolically active visceral fat deposits surrounding the thoracic aorta and the heart, respectively. Various studies have demonstrated a positive predictive value of both PFT and EAT for coronary artery disease in the general population.
