Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis for prediction of coronary artery disease (CAD) with anthropometric measures and ultrasonographically obtained epicaradial and subcutaneous adipose tissue thickness.

Tested variable AUC p 95% CI

Waist-to-height ratio 0.673 0.004 0.559–0.786
EAT thickness 0.658 0.009 0.548–0.768
SAT thickness 0.634 0.027 0.511–0.756

Overall logistic regression model for CAD classification with anthropometric measures and EAT and SAT as predictor variables was tested with ROC analysis. AUC: area under curve; CI: confidence interval; BMI: body mass index; EAT: epicardial adipose tissue; SAT: subcutaneous adipose tissue. Coronary artery disease (CAD) was defined as ≥50% narrowing of one or more arteries.
