The influence of pericardial fat upon left ventricular function in obese females: evidence of a site-specific effect

BACKGROUND: Although increased volume of pericardial fat has been associated with decreased cardiac function, it is unclear whether this association is mediated by systemic overall obesity or direct regional fat interactions. We hypothesized that if local effects dominate, left ventricular (LV) func...
