Clinical Trial Summary

is to test the hypotheses that epicardial adipose tissue can be a marker of severity of coronary artery disease in myocardial infarction patients

Description:

epicardial adipose tissue is defined as the adipose tissue between the visceral pericardium and the outer margin of the myocardium which can be considered an endocrine organ that secretes pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines including adiponectin.as investigators know, inflammatory response is an important factor in the coronary atherogenesis. Therefore,epicardial adipose tissue is likely to be connected with the severity of coronary artery disease.Recent studies showed that the thickness of the epicardial adipose tissue in patients with coronary artery disease was greater than that with normal coronary arteries.

epicardial adipose tissue will be assessed using transthoracic echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance which allows for an accurate volumetric quantification of epicardial fat.
