The relation of body fat distribution to left ventricular (LV) structure and function is poorly defined. 2710 participants without heart failure or LV dysfunction in the Dallas Heart Study underwent dual energy x-ray absorptiometry and magnetic resonance imaging assessment of fat distribution, LV morphology, and hemodynamics. Cross-sectional associations of fat distribution with LV structure and function were examined after adjustment for age, sex, race, comorbidities, and lean mass. Mean age was 44 years with 55% women; 48% African-Americans; and 44% obese. After multivariable adjustment, visceral fat (VAT) was associated with concentric remodeling characterized by lower LV end-diastolic volume (β= -0.21), higher concentricity (β= 0.20) and wall thickness (β=0.09, p<0.0001 for all). In contrast, lower body subcutaneous fat (LBF) was associated with higher LV end-diastolic volume (β= 0.48), reduced concentricity (β= -0.50) and wall thickness (β= -0.28, p<0.0001 for all). VAT was also associated with lower cardiac output (β= -0.10, p<0.05) and higher systemic vascular resistance (β= 0.08, p<0.05) whereas LBF associated with higher cardiac output (β= 0.20, p<0.0001) and lower systemic vascular resistance (β= -0.18, p<0.0001). Abdominal subcutaneous fat (SAT) showed weaker associations with concentric remodeling and was not associated with hemodynamics. Among the subset of obese participants, VAT, but not SAT, was significantly associated with concentric remodeling. VAT, a marker of central adiposity, was independently associated with concentric LV remodeling and adverse hemodynamics. In contrast, LBF was associated with eccentric remodeling. The impact of body fat distribution on heart failure risk requires prospective study.
