ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Malnutrition is associated with cardiovascular disease morbidity and mortality. Arrhythmias may be the cardiac consequences of malnutrition.OBJECTIVES:
The objective of the study was to evaluate the association between prognostic nutritional index (PNI), Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score, and arrhythmic events on 24-h electrocardiography (ECG) Holter recording in patients without manifested arrhythmia.METHODS:
In this retrospective analysis of 477 patients who underwent 24-h ECG Holter monitoring, PNI and CONUT score were calculated and patients were divided into tertiles according to PNI and into three groups according to CONUT score; 0 normal, 1-2 mild risk of malnutrition, ≥3 moderate-severe risk of malnutrition. Arrhythmic events were compared between PNI tertiles and CONUT score groups.RESULTS:
Total number of premature atrial contractions, premature ventricular contractions (PVCs), PVC burden, and incidence of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) were significantly higher in patients within the lowest PNI tertile. Total number of PVCs, PVC burden, and incidence of PAF were significantly higher in patients with CONUT score ≥3. The cut-off value for PNI to predict the presence of PVC was defined as 39.41 using ROC curve analysis. The area under the curve was 0.650 (p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that PNI was independent predictor of the presence of PVC and PAF. Also, CONUT score was independent predictor of the presence of PVC and PAF. Incidence of nonsustained ventricular tachycardia did not differ between PNI tertiles or CONUT score groups.CONCLUSION:
Poor nutritional status, assessed by PNI and CONUT score, is associated with arrhythmic events on 24-h ECG Holter recording in patients without manifested arrhythmia.Palavras-chave
