Összefoglaló szövege

Background: Obesity is a rising public health crisis. It is increasingly recognized that different fat compartments have different risk relationships. Fat accumulation, specifically disproportionate deposition of metabolically active visceral and pericardial adipose tissue (PAT), is linked to an increased hazard of obesity-related cardiovascular outcomes. Furthermore, current data suggest a distinct mechanistic role for PAT in driving adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Existing work is limited to describing PAT quantity. However, the character of PAT also has likely mechanistic importance.

Aims: In this study, we use radiomics measures of PAT geometry and tissue character derived from pixel-level magnetic resonance imaging to define imaging signatures of PAT which discriminate heart failure (HF).

Methods and results: We studied 43,226 UK Biobank participants with cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR), of these 297 had prevalent HF at the time of imaging. We obtained PAT contours using an automated pipeline. The PyRadiomics platform was adopted to extract shape, first-order and texture features (n=105). To create a balanced cohort, we randomly matched equal number of individuals without HF as comparator group (n=297). The data were split into training and test sets. (20%). We applied 6 classification models with 10-folds cross-validation and hyperparameter tuning. All sex and age-adjusted classification models achieved good discrimination between HF patients and controls. The best discriminative power was reached using the voting classifier method (Accuracy: 0.79, F1 score: 0.79). We applied SHAP to describe the feature importance of PAT radiomics parameters. We found that texture (e.g. High Gray level emphasis) and shape features were the most important metrics distinguishing prevalent HF.

Conclusion: We demonstrated that HF patients have distinct radiomics PAT phenotypes with important information from both shape and texture features. Our findings provide new insights into mechanisms of PAT-HF associations and propose novel imaging biomarkers for their investigation.
