Epicardial Adipose Tissue Volume and Left Atrial Remodeling: A J-Shaped Association in Older Adults
EAT accumulation shows a non-linear association with left atrial remodeling in older adults, with an identifiable threshold at 110.7 cm<sup>3</sup>. EAT may be a valuable biomarker for cardiovascular risk stratification, suggesting that EAT burden monitoring could be beneficial in older populations.
