Abstract in Portuguese
A gordura pericárdica (GP), um componente do tecido adiposo visceral, tem sido consistentemente relacionada com aterosclerose coronária na população geral. Este estudo avaliou a associação entre GP e a calcificação arterial coronária (CAC) em pacientes com doença renal crônica (DRC) não dialítica. Este é um estudo transversal post-hoc da linha de base de coorte prospectiva de 117 pacientes com DRC em seguimento ambulatorial sem doença coronária manifesta (idade, 56,8 ± 11 anos; 64% do sexo masculino; 95,1% hipertensos; 25,2% diabéticos; 15,5% com história prévia de tabagismo; e estágios 2 a 5 da DRC e ritmo de filtração glomerular estimado de 36,8 ± 18,1 ml/min). O escore de CAC, volume de GP e gordura visceral abdominal (GVA) foram medidos por tomografia computadorizada. A associação da GP, como variável contínua, com a presença de CAC foi analisada por regressão logística multivariada. CAC (escore de cálcio>0) esteve presente em 59,2% dos pacientes. Na comparação com os pacientes sem CAC, aqueles com CAC eram 10 anos mais velhos, apresentaram maior proporção de homens (78,7% versus 42,9%, p < 0.001), tiveram maior circunferência de abdominal (95,9 ± 10,7 versus 90,2 ± 13,2 centímetros, p=0,02), maior volume de GP (224,8 ± 107,6 versus 139,1 ± 85,0 cm³, p < 0,01), e maior área de GVA (109,2 ± 81,5 versus 70,2 ± 62,9 cm², p=0,01). Em análise multivariada ajustada para idade, sexo, diabetes, história de tabagismo, história de tabagismo, e hipertrofia ventricular concêntrica; GP esteve significantemente associada com a presença de CAC (OR: 1,88 95% IC: 1,03-3,43 por desvio padrão, p=0,04). GP permaneceu associada com CAC mesmo após ajuste adicional para ritmo de filtração glomerular e fósforo sérico (OR: 1,85 95% IC: 1,00 - 3,42, p=0,05). A GP está independentemente associada com CAC em pacientes com DRC não dialítica.

Abstract in English
Pericardial fat (PF), a component of visceral adipose tissue has been consistently related to coronary atherosclerosis in the general population. This study evaluated the association between PF and coronary artery calcification (CAC) in non-dialysis dependent chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. This is a post-hoc cross sectional analysis of the baseline of a prospective cohort of 117 outward CKD patients without manifest coronary artery disease (age, 56.9 ± 11.0 years, 64,1% males, 95.1% hypertensive, 25.2% diabetics, 15.5% ever smokers, CKD stage 2 to 5 with estimated glomerular filtration rate 36.8 ± 18.1 ml/min). CAC scores, PF volume and abdominal visceral fat (AVF) areas were measured by computed tomography. The association of PF as a continuous variable with the presence of CAC was analyzed by multivariate logistic regression. CAC (calcium score >0) was present in 59.2% patients. On the comparison with patients with no CAC, those with CAC were 10 years older on average, had a higher proportion of male gender (78.7% vs. 42.9%, p < 0.001), and had higher values of waist circumference (95.9 ± 10.7 versus 90.2 ± 13.2 cm, p=0.02), PF volumes (224.8±107.6 versus 139.1±85.0 cm³, p < 0.01) and AVF areas (109.2 ± 81.5 versus 70.2 ± 62.9 cm², p=0.01). In the multivariate analysis, adjusting for age, gender, diabetes, smoking and, left ventricular concentric hypertrophy, PF was significantly associated with the presence of CAC (OR: 1.88 95% CI: 1.03-3.43 per standard deviation, p=0.04). PF remained associated with CAC even after additional adjustments for estimated glomerular filtration rate or serum phosphorus (OR: 1.85 95% CI: 1.00-3.42, p=0.05). PF is independently associated with CAC in non-dialysis dependent CKD patients
