Prognostic Value of Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography-derived Morphologic and Quantitative Plaque Markers Using Semiautomated Plaque Software

Stefan Baumann et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the prognostic value of coronary computed tomography angiography-derived plaque markers and risk scores for major adverse cardiovascular events. The results showed that these markers and scores had predictive value for the occurrence of MACE, indicating their potential in identifying patients at risk for future cardiac events.

Vascular-specific epicardial adipose tissue in predicting functional myocardial ischemia for patients with stable chest pain

Dongkai Shan et al.

Summary: The volume of vascular-specific epicardial adipose tissue in the left anterior descending branch has shown to be an independent predictor of functional myocardial ischemia beyond traditional cardiac risk factors and CAD-RADS categories. Adding this measurement to a prediction model significantly improves its performance in identifying significant flow-limit ischemia detected by FFR.

Epicardial fat and coronary artery disease: Role of cardiac imaging

Marco Guglielmo et al.

Summary: EAT and PCAT are not inert fat tissues, they secrete adipokines that have significant effects on cardiovascular health; PCAT inflammation is associated with CAD and cardiovascular events, and CCT has become a key technology for assessing EAT and PCAT.

Association of Epicardial Fat Volume With Increased Risk of Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease in Chinese Patients With Suspected Coronary Artery Disease

Wenji Yu et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between epicardial adipose tissue (EFV) and obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) in Chinese patients with suspected CAD. The results showed that EFV was significantly and positively associated with the risk of obstructive CAD, independent of traditional risk factors and coronary artery calcium.

Relationship of epicardial fat volume with coronary plaque characteristics, coronary artery calcification score, coronary stenosis, and CT-FFR for lesion-specific ischemia in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease

Zhen Xie et al.

Summary: This study demonstrated that epicardial fat volume (EFV) is associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) and may serve as a promising marker of CAD. Additionally, EFV is correlated with high-risk plaque and lesion-specific ischemia, suggesting a potential role of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) in myocardial ischemia and in determining patients' risk profile.
