The Role of Metabolic Syndrome and Disorders in Cardiovascular Disease
Metabolic syndrome is a dangerous combination of cardiovascular risk factors that correlate with each other and can increase cardio and cerebrovascular events. The incidence of metabolic syndrome often parallels that of obesity and type 2 diabetes. It is widespread; in the United States, more than 40% of people over the age of 50 have metabolic syndrome. The diagnosis of metabolic syndrome is based on the coexistence of at least three risk factors including waist circumference greater than 102 cm in men or 88 cm in women, systolic blood pressure greater than 130 mmHg and diastolic greater than 85 mmHg, HDL cholesterol less than 40 mg/dl in men or 50 mg/dl in women, triglyceridemia higher than 150 mg/dl and finally fasting glycaemia higher than 110 mg/dl.
Epicardial Adipose Tissue
This book is the first authoritative and comprehensive volume dedicated to epicardial adipose tissue (EAT). It provides an up-to-date and highly illustrated synopsis of the anatomical, biomolecular, genetic, imaging features, and clinical applications of EAT and its role in cardiovascular disease. It relays to the reader a contemporary view of the emerging interplay between the heart and adiposity-related diseases. In addition, this volume discusses the clinical implications and therapeutic targets of EAT in atrial fibrillation, heart failure and coronary artery disease. Comprehensive yet focused, Epicardial Adipose Tissue: From Cell to Clinic is an essential resource for physicians, residents, fellows, and medical students in cardiology, endocrinology, primary care, and health promotion and disease prevention.
