In epicardial fat tissue we found a strong correlation between C16:0-CoA content and HOMA-IR ( r = 0.73, p < 0.001). Associations Between Bioactive Lipids and Cardiac Structure Alterations We found highly significant ( p < 0.001 in all cases) correlations between the content of some lipid species determined in adipose tissue samples and the left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDd) of the heart.
