Journal Article
Pericardial fat, thoracic peri-aortic adipose tissue, and systemic inflammatory marker in nonalcoholic fatty liver and abdominal obesity phenotype
2022
Overview
Researchers have conducted many studies about the relationships between peri-cardiovascular fat, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), waist circumference, and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Nevertheless, the relationship between NAFLD and pericardial fat (PCF)/thoracic peri-aortic adipose tissue (TAT) phenotypes was still unknown. This study aimed to explore whether PCF/TAT was associated with NAFLD/abdominal obesity (AO) phenotypes in different high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels. We consecutively studied 1655 individuals (mean age, 49.44 ± 9.76 years) who underwent a health-screening program. We showed a significant association between PCF/TAT and NAFLD/AO phenotypes in the cross-sectional study. We observed that the highest risk occurred in both abnormalities’ groups, and the second highest risk occurred in the AO-only group. Subjects with AO had a significantly increased risk of PCF or TAT compared to those with NAFLD. Notably, the magnitude of the associations between PCF/TAT and NAFLD/AO varied by the level of systemic inflammatory marker (hs-CRP level). We suggested that people with AO and NAFLD must be more careful about changes in PCF and TAT. Regular measurement of waist circumference (or AO) can be a more accessible way to monitor peri-cardiovascular fat (PCF and TAT), which may serve as a novel and rapid way to screen CVD in the future.
