What this study is about

Visceral obesity is a well-established risk factor for the development of chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Epicardial fat tissue (EFT) is located on the surface of the myocardium and may directly affect cardiac function and contribute to structural and functional remodeling. According to the literature, increased EFT thickness is associated with a wide range of NCDs, disease severity, and prognosis. The aim of this study is to investigate the associations between EFT thickness and clinical and anamnestic parameters, as well as to evaluate the prognostic value of this parameter in patients aged 50-70 years from the Russian Federation, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Kyrgyzstan.

A promising-looking record is not the same as confirmed eligibility. The study team must review the full criteria and current recruitment status.
