In the last three decades, ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) has become an evidence-based
safe and efficacious treatment for managing the most common cardiac arrhythmia. In 2007 …

The global prevalence of obesity has reached epidemic proportions, paralleled by a rise in
cases of atrial fibrillation (AF). Data from epidemiological cohorts support the role of obesity …

Introduction Although an undoubted association between epicardial fat tissue (EFT) and
atrial fibrillation (AF) has been recently approved, the association between EFT and post …

Abstract Purpose of Review Epicardial adipose tissue has been associated with the
development/progression of cardiovascular disease. We appraise the strength of the …

Background and aims: Post-operative atrial fibrillation (POAF), defined as new-onset AF in
the immediate period after surgery, is associated with poor adverse cardiovascular events …

In recent decades, the epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) has been at the forefront of scientific
research because of its diverse role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) …

The mechanisms of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain incompletely elucidated. Single-
cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has enabled the profiling of single-cell transcriptomes at …

The raising prevalence of obesity is associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular
diseases (CVDs), particularly coronary artery disease (CAD), and heart failure, including …

Aim: To evaluate the genetic associations of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) mass with
metabolic risk factors and cardiovascular disease (CVD) endpoints and to construct a …

The aetiology of atrial fibrillation (AF) remains poorly understood, despite its growing
prevalence and associated morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. Obesity is implicated …
