心外膜脂肪组织相关指标与心房颤动关系的研究进展

Research progress on the relationship between epicardial adipose tissue and atrial fibrillation

心房颤动发病率与致死率逐年上升,心外膜脂肪组织(EAT)在心血管疾病中具有重大作用,EAT通过炎症介导、神经调节、脂肪浸润等方式影响心房颤动发生、发展,多种非侵入性成像手段可以评估EAT的相关指标,进而研究它们与心房颤动的关系,本文就EAT及EAT的相关指标与心房颤动的关系进行综述,为临床诊断及治疗心房颤动提供新的可能。

The incidence and mortality of atrial fibrillation are increasing.Epicardial adipose tissue(EAT)plays an important role in cardiovascular disease.EAT affects the occurrence and development of atrial fibrillation through inflammatory mediation,neural regulation,and fat infiltration.Multiple non-invasive imaging methods can evaluate the indicators of EAT and their relationship with atrial fibrillation.This article reviews the relationship between EAT and EAT-related indicators and atrial fibrillation,providing new possibilities for clinical diagnosis and treatment of atrial fibrillation.
