Redistribution of adipose tissue is associated with left atrial remodeling and dysfunction in patients with atrial fibrillation

Abstract: ObjectiveAdipose tissue is recognized as a crucial regulator of atrial fibrillation (AF). However, the effect of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) on the pathophysiology of AF might be different from that of other adipose tissues. The purpose of this study was to explore the distribution features of different adipose tissues in AF patients and their relationships with left atrial (LA) remodeling and function.MethodsA total of 205 participants (including 112 AF and 93 non-AF patients) were recruited.

“…Cardiac remodeling was evaluated as previously described. 13,14 The parameters included the size of the right atrium, right ventricle, left ventricular internal end-diastole dimension, and left ventricular ejection fraction. The evaluation of LA structural and functional remodeling included the mean values of LA minimum volume (LAVmin), LA maximum volume (LAVmax), LA ejection fraction (LAEF), LA peak strain rate during ventricular systole, and strain rate during early left ventricular diastole.…”
