Diabetes during pregnancy—whether pre-existing or gestational—may lead to increased fat accumulation around the fetal heart, ...

Epicardial fat is a metabolically active organ that generates various bioactive molecules, which might significantly affect cardiac function. This small, visceral fat depot is now recognized as a ...

A deep learning model trained to quantify epicardial adipose tissue volume measured via routine coronary CT angiography scans can improve risk assessment for CV and non-CV outcomes, independent of ...

The following is a summary of “Increased epicardial tissue and reduced TAPSE and MAPSE scores in borderline personality ...

Epicardial fat tissue surrounds the heart muscle and the coronary arteries. Pericardial fat tissue is outside of that on-the-heart epicardial tissue. Even though they’re snuggled up together ...

The team demonstrated that PDGF 'signaling' is required for epicardial cell proliferation, as well as supportive cell and coronary blood vessel formation leading to regeneration of cardiac tissue ...

Objectives: The aim of our study was to assess the link between epicardial fat (EF) volume and paracardial fat (PF) volume, relative expressions of several genes in epicardial, paracardial, and ...

To be presented on November 17 at the American Heart Association (AHA) Scientific Sessions 2024, this data highlights vMap’s impressive 91.1% accuracy rate in differentiating epicardial from ...

Cardiovia Ltd.' Viaone epicardial access system received U.S. FDA clearance for treating cardiac arrhythmias. The device provides clinicians with a safe and minimally invasive technology to reach the ...

Although there have been relatively few studies of epicardial fat, the evidence reported so far suggests that epicardial adipose tissue is anatomically and clinically related to cardiac morphology ...
