Sympathovagal imbalance, detected by HRV and HRT parameters, is related to EAT thickness. As sympathovagal imbalance is a predictor of arrhythmic events, EAT may play an important arrhythmogenic role not limited to atrial fibrillation.

A close relationship between SAT thickness and MS was demonstrated. Assessment of SAT thickness in routine echocardiographic examinations might be used in predicting the existence of MS and its associated cardiovascular risks.
