Macrophage Accumulation and Angiogenesis in Epicardial Adipose Tissue in Cardiac Patients with or without Chronic Heart Failure

Macrophage Accumulation and Angiogenesis in Epicardial Adipose Tissue in Cardiac Patients with or without Chronic Heart Failure

Routinely measuring epicardial fat had become a novel tool for cardiovascular risk stratification. Structural changes in epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), including fat thickness, inflammation, and angiogenesis, have been described in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. We proposed to measure EAT...
