Obesity is a significant risk factor for arrhythmic cardiovascular death. Interactions between
epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) and myocytes are thought to play a key role in the …

Abstract Purpose of Review Hypertension cause damage in cardiac structure and induce
pathological myocardial fibrosis that leads to hypertensive cardiomyopathy. A narrow …

The arrhythmogenic role of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) in atrial arrhythmias is well
established, but its effect on ventricular arrhythmias has been significantly less investigated …

Aims This study aims to explore the association between the features of epicardial adipose
tissue (EAT) in different zones and premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) originating from …

Abstract Background Ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) are frequent in hypertensive patients.
Myocardial fibrosis is one of the components of left ventricular hypertrophy secondary to …

Introduction: It is important to identify those at higher risk for ventricular arrhythmia among
hypertensive patients. Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) leads to electromechanical changes …

Abstract Background and Aims Fragmented QRS (fQRS), which is associated with rhythm
disturbances, can predispose the heart to fatal ventricular arrhythmias. Recently …

Ventricular arrhythmias (VAs), including ventricular tachycardia (VT)/fibrillation (VF), are the
leading cause of sudden cardiac death, with coronary artery disease (CAD) predominantly …

Myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) is the most common cardiac disease in dogs. The
association of QRS notching (nQRS) or fragmentation (fQRS) with disease severity is …

ABSTRACT Objective: Fragmented QRS (fQRS) has been shown to be related to coronary
heart disease, heart failure, hypertension, cardiac arrhythmia, and metabolic syndrome …
