Aim: Some studies have linked the present of chronic obstructive oulmonary disease (COPD) to coronary artery disease (CAD). Low grade systemic inflammation occurs in patients with COPD as well as patients with CAD. This study was designed to find out the concentration differences of hs-CRP and TNF-a in patients having both chronic obstructive pulmonary and coronary artery diseases with those having either. Methods: A cross - sectional descriptive study was conducted in 200 patients undergoing a coronary artery angiography in the Heart Institute, Thong Nhat Hospital and 115 People Hospital. COPD was diagnosed using GOLD classification. Result: Our study had shown that the levels of hs-CRP and TNF-a were statistically increased in patients with COPD, CAD as well as in patients who had COPD with CAD (p<0,05). The levels of hs-CRP were higher in CAD than in COPD nad the levels of TNF-a were higher in COPD than in CAD. In patients with COPD and CAD, there were increased the levels of both hs-CRP and TNF-a in serum. Conclusion: Systemic inflammation presents in both COPD and CAD. Key words: hs-CRP, TNF-a, coronary artery disease (CAD).

Background: Epicardial fat increase has not yet a clear correlation with coronary artery disease (CAD). Aim: This study had as goal to demonstrate a relationship between an increase of epicardial fat thickness (EFT) and CAD. Materials & methods: In this observational study, we included 234 patients who underwent invasive coronary angiography. Before invasive coronary angiography, all patients underwent echocardiographic-2D for evaluation of EFT and they were divided into groups based on Gensini score and also on Syntax score. Results: EFT was significantly correlated to the presence and severity of CAD assessed by Gensini score with a cut-off value of 5.2 mm (sensitivity of 90.9%-specificity of 87.3%- area under the ROC curve = 92.1%). Conclusion: EFT increase (fat index ≥5.2 mm) evaluated by echocardiographic-2D could be considered as a risk factor for predicting CAD.
