摘要：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 is successfully designed and well-documented.
