“…However, the causal relationship between VAT mass and a wide range of CVD outcomes is still unclear, and the potential mechanism is unknown. Most experimental studies about the relationship between VAT and CVDs focus on the impact of specific depots of VAT on CVDs, like EAT ( Wong et al, 2017 ; Packer, 2018 ; Ernault et al, 2021 ) PAT ( Al Chekakie et al, 2010 ; Thanassoulis et al, 2010 ), and PVAT ( Xia and Li, 2017 ), but not the impact of overall VAT.…”

“…There are also several other less-understood potential mechanisms which may explain the involvement of EAT in the pathogenesis of AF, such as the local aromatase effect [113][114][115]. A significant positive correlation was determined between the total aromatase content of EAT and the occurrence/duration of triggered atrial arrhythmias [114].…”

“…This can be explained by one of the mechanisms previously described in literature. The first is the direct infiltration of the myocardium by adipocytes, which leads to the formation of tissue and electrical heterogeneity, following by LA structural remodeling [39]. The second mechanismis induction of inflammation and fibrosis in the myocardium due to the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines by adipose tissue itself [6,40].…”
