Difference in quantitative epicardial adipose tissue (EAT). Forest plot displays weighted mean differences (WMDs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for differences between patients with and without high‐risk plaque (HRP). This indicates that patients with HRP have a significantly higher volume of EAT (WMD: 28.3 mL [95% CI, 18.8–37.8 mL]) compared with those patients without HRP.
