Intermuscular Adiposity is Associated with Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction Independently of Body Mass Index and Modifies its Effect on Adverse Cardiovascular Outcomes

2023-05-05

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Skeletal muscle (SM) fat infiltration, or intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT), reflects muscle quality and is associated with inflammation, a key determinant in cardiometabolic disease. Coronary flow reserve (CFR), a marker of coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD), is independently associated with BMI, inflammation and risk of heart failure, myocardial infarction and death. We sought to in...
