There is a bidirectional pathophysiological interaction between the heart and the kidneys,
and prolonged physiological stress to the heart and/or the kidneys can cause adverse …

Background Obesity is a risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF) and strongly influences the
response to treatment. Atrial fibrosis shows similar associations. Epicardial adipose tissue …

Atrial fibrillation, the most common cardiac arrhythmia, results in substantial morbidity and
mortality related to its increased risks of stroke, heart failure, and impaired cognitive function …

Background Determination of the impact of visceral obesity and epicardial adipose tissue

Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) often occurs after cardiac surgery and is associated with
increased risk of stroke and mortality. Prior studies support the important role of inflammation …

The Wnt signaling pathway regulates physiological processes such as cell proliferation and
differentiation, cell fate decisions, and stem cell maintenance and, thus, plays essential roles …

Cardiac obesity makes an important contribution to the pathogenesis of cardiovascular
disease. One of the important pathways of this contribution is the inflammatory process that …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmias, and patients with AF are facing
increased risk of heart failure and ischemic stroke. However, the AF pathogenesis …

Background Glucagon‐like peptide 1 (GLP‐1) analogs regulate body weight and liver
steatosis. Different body adipose tissue (AT) depots exhibit biological variability …

Adipose tissue is a crucial regulator in maintaining cardiovascular homeostasis by secreting
