1. The presence of MetSy significantly correlates with haemodynamically significant coronary lesions. 2. The degree of visceral obesity significantly correlates with the severity of CAD. 3. BMI does not correlate with the severity of CAD. 4. Isolated visceral obesity is a weaker determinant of haemodynamically significant coronary lesions compared to MetSy with associated obesity. 5. MetSy is associated with significantly more advanced coronary lesions, i.e. multivessel disease.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
