Abstract: Excessive visceral adiposity (VAT) plays an essential role in metabolic derangements with those close to heart further mediates myocardial homeostasis. The disparate biological links between region‐specific VAT and cardiometabolic profiles as mediators influencing atrial kinetics… read more here.
