Epicardial adipose tissue volume is associated with impaired left ventricular strain in patients with metabolic syndrome: the mediating role of myocardial energetic efficiency

Abstract Background Epicardial adipose tissue volume (EATV) has been linked to cardiac dysfunction in metabolic syndrome (MetS), but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate whether myocardial energetic efficiency partially explains the relationship between...
