Core Tip |
The epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a biologically active organ and has been associated with metabolic diseases and coronary artery disease. EAT is a superior cardiovascular risk factor compared to conventional measures. This editorial evaluates the reported measurements of EAT in patients with diabetes mellitus and renal impairment, along with their clinical and laboratory characteristics. Patients with diabetes mellitus and nephropathy have increased EAT volume, uncontrolled disease, high body mass index and raised cardiovascular risk markers, when compared with healthy population. Based on current literature, EAT assessment could be used as a novel biomarker for the identification of patients at high risk for cardiovascular adverse events. |
