Total and Interatrial Epicardial Adipose Tissues Are Independently Associated With Left Atrial Remodeling in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation

Abstract

EAT(total) and thickness of periatrial EAT were significantly larger in AF subjects compared to those of the matched controls and were closely related to the chronicity of AF. Moreover, EAT(total) and IAS thickness were independently associated with LAV in subjects with AF.
