ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the correlation between epicardial fat volume(EFV),epicardial fat volume indexed(EFVi)and coronary artery lumen stenosis in young adults.Methods The data of 80 young patients who underwent both coronary computed tomography angiography(CCTA)and coronary angiography(CAG)within 2 weeks were analyzed retrospectively.The correlation between EFV,EFVi and coronary artery lumen stenosis in young adults was evaluated.Results A total of 80 patients were enrolled,taking CAG exomination results as the gold standard,58 cases were enrolled into the lesion group and the other 22 cases were enrolled into the control group.The incidence of coronary artery lumen stenosis was higher in young males than that in young females(t=4.309,P=0.038).EFV and EFVi in the lesion group were higher than those in the control group(t=3.023,P=0.001;t=2.785,P=0.001).The EFV in males was higher than that in females(t=2.558,P=0.012).There was no significant difference in EFVi between male and female groups.The differences between EFV and EFVi of males in lesion group and control group were statistically significant(t=4.083,P<0.01;t=4.429,P<0.01).The differences between EFV and EFVi of females in lesion group and control group showed no sta-tistical significance.EFV and EFVi were moderately positively correlated with coronary artery lumen stenosis(rs=0.437,P<0.01;rs=0.463,P<0.01).Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis of EFV and EFVi showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of EFV was 0.784,the cut-off value was 107.24 cm3,the sensitivity was 0.776,and the specificity was 0.682.The AUC,cut-off value,sensitivity and specificity of EFVi was 0.793,53.68 cm3/m2,0.81,0.682,respectively.Conclusion EFV and EFVi are moderately positively correlated with coronary artery lumen stenosis in young adults,which is helpful to the diagnosis of coronary heart disease.However,the differences between EFV and EFVi of young females in lesion group and control group show no statistical significance.
