Evaluation of Circulating Adipokines and Abdominal Obesity as Predictors of Significant Myocardial Ischemia Using Gated Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography

OBJECTIVE: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is associated with abdominal obesity and metabolic syndrome. Adipocytes secrete adipokines, including the newly discovered adipocyte fatty acid binding protein (A-FABP) and chemerin. Adipokines contribute to the pathogenesis of CAD.
