AB  - Background and aims: Obesity and metabolic syndrome (MetS) are risk factors of atrial fibrillation (AF), but limited data exist on their effect on left atrial (LA) function. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of cardiac, hepatic and intra-abdominal ectopic fat depots and cardiometabolic risk factors on LA function in non-diabetic male subjects. Methods and results: Myocardial and hepatic triglyceride contents were measured with 1.5T H-1-magnetic resonance spectroscopy and LA and le...
