根据2025年的一项研究,心脏病发作后较高的心脂肪水平与更大的心脏损伤相关。 Higher heart fat levels after a heart attack correlate with greater heart damage, according to a 2025 study.

在EACVI上发表的一项2025年研究发现,心脏发作后10天内通过心脏MRI测量出的心上脂肪组织 (EAT) 的较高水平与1,168名患者的更广泛的心肌损伤有关. A 2025 study presented at EACVI found that higher levels of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), measured by cardiac MRI within 10 days of a heart attack, are linked to more extensive heart muscle damage in 1,168 patients. 患有最多EAT的人年龄较大,BMI较高,心脏病发作大小较大,但心脏动功能没有差异. Those with the most EAT were older, had higher BMI, and showed larger infarct sizes, though no differences in heart pumping function were observed. 该组人注意到了低微血管阻塞。 Lower microvascular obstruction was noted in this group. 研究人员认为,EAT可能会通过对心脏的炎症和身体压力而使结果恶化,并且说,衡量EAT可以超越传统因素来改进风险评估。 Researchers suggest EAT may worsen outcomes through inflammation and physical pressure on the heart, and say measuring EAT could improve risk assessment beyond traditional factors. 专家们建议进一步研究以EAT为目标是否能够防止严重并发症。 Experts recommend further study on whether targeting EAT could prevent serious complications.
