Epicardial adipocyte size does not correlate with body mass index

Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) deposition has a strong association with aspects of metabolic dysfunction, including obesity. The size of the EAT adipocytes in relation to obesity, however, has rarely been researched. Therefore, to contextualise EAT within the broader framework of pathophysiological adipocyte size changes in obesity, we aimed to determine whether EAT adipocyte size is associated with body mass index (BMI). During routine...
