Abstract
Objective
Postmenopausal women have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Epicardial adipose tissue has been shown to be useful in identifying cardiovascular risk but there is little information in postmenopausal women. The objective of this study was to examine the association between epicardial fat and components of metabolic syndrome in postmenopausal women.
Subjects and methods
A cross sectional study was conducted in 50 postmenopausal women. All participants underwent transthoracic echocardiography and body composition analysis.
Results
A greater amount of epicardial adipose tissue was found in postmenopausal women with metabolic syndrome than in those without this syndrome (515.6 ± 130.9 vs 358.0 ± 138.7, p < 0.001). The amount of epicardial adipose tissue increased with a greater number of metabolic components (p < 0.001).
Conclusions
There is a direct relationship between epicardial fat and cardiometabolic risk after menopause, a period when there is a higher risk of thrombosis.
目的:绝经后妇女患心血管疾病的风险增加。心外膜脂肪组织已被证明在识别心血管风险方面有用,但在绝经后妇女中很少有相关信息。本研究的目的是检查绝经后妇女心外膜脂肪和代谢综合征成分之间的关系。研究对象和方法对50例绝经后妇女进行了横断面研究。所有参与者都接受了经胸超声心动图和身体成分分析。结果绝经后代谢综合征患者心外膜脂肪组织含量高于无代谢综合征患者(515.6±130.9 vs 358.0±138.7,p <0.001)。心外膜脂肪组织的数量随着代谢成分数量的增加而增加(p <0.001)。结论绝经后血栓形成风险较高,心外膜脂肪与绝经后心脏代谢风险有直接关系。
