Overview

Analysis identifies factors influencing epicardial fat thickness in CAD patients with borderline stenosis, suggesting the role of inflammation and obesity.

Key Points

  • Increase in epicardial fat thickness is significantly influenced by hypertension onset age in stable CAD patients.
  • Patients without diabetes or obesity showed the strongest association with hypertension onset before age 44.5.
  • Inflammatory markers like TNF-alpha and glucose levels also impact epicardial fat thickness in CAD patients.
  • Indicators of early vascular aging, such as MMSE scores, are crucial in predicting changes in epicardial fat thickness.
