摘要
<正>To the editor We read the article Usefulness of the epicardial fat tissue thickness as a diagnostic criterion for geriatric patients with metabolic syndrome by Kaya,et al.[1]The authors aimed to evaluate the epicardial fat tissue thickness(EFT)as a diagnostic criterion for geriatric patients with metabolic syndrome(MetS).They concluded that EFT levels were higher in geriatric patients with MetS and can therefore be used as a diagnostic criterion for MetS.Thanks to the authors for their good contribution of the present study,which
