Correlation analysis between epicardial adipose tissue and acute coronary syndrome.

ABSTRACT: To investigate the correlation between the density and volume of epicardial adipose tissue(EAT)and acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This study included 355 subjects (mean age: 60.65 ± 9.67 years; 54.65% male), comprising 175 patients with ACS and 180 without ACS. Propensity score matching was applied to balance the variables between the two groups, resulting in 96 successfully matched pairs. Clinical data, epicardial adipose tissue volume (EATV), and epicardial adipose tissue density (EATD) were compared. Independent factors influencing ACS were identified using logistic regression analysis, and the predictive ability of each variable was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Systolic blood pressure, EATV, EATD, fasting blood glucose, triglycerides, and high-sensiti
