Magnetic Resonance Imaging Quantification of Accumulation of Epicardial Adipose Tissue Adds Independent Risks for Diastolic Dysfunction among Dialysis Patients

Diastolic dysfunction (DD) frequently occurs in dialysis patients; however, the risk factors of DD remain to be further explored in such a population. Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) volume has proven… Click to show full abstract

Diastolic dysfunction (DD) frequently occurs in dialysis patients; however, the risk factors of DD remain to be further explored in such a population. Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) volume has proven to be an independent clinical risk factor for multiple cardiac disorders.
