ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Inflammation, such as that associated with intermediate CD14++ CD16+ monocytes and atrial structural remodeling (SRM), may be important in the recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) after catheter ablation. However, the relationship between the intermediate CD14++ CD16+ monocytes, SRM, and AF recurrence is unclear.METHODS:
Twenty-four patients with AF were enrolled. The proportion of intermediate monocytes (PIM) was assessed before ablation by flow cytometry. As a surrogate marker of SRM, the volume ratio (VR) of signal intensity greater than 1 standard deviation on late-gadolinium enhancement magnetic resonance imaging (LGE-MRI) was calculated. We investigated whether PIM correlated with SRM on LGE-MRI and determined the optimal cutoff value for predicting AF recurrence.RESULTS:
Univariate analysis revealed positive correlations between PIM and BNP with SRM (PIM r = .593, p = .002; BNP r = .567, p = .004). Multivariable analysis revealed that PIM was independently associated with VR on LGE-MRI (ß = .522; p = .033). The finding of an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.750 revealed that a VR ≥ 13.3% on LGE-MRI as the optimal cutoff value to predict AF recurrence with 80% sensitivity and 71% specificity, which was associated with PIM ≥ 10.0%.CONCLUSION:
Intermediate monocytes were significantly positively correlated with SRM. PIM ≥ 10% was associated with a VR ≥ 13.3% on LGE-MRI, which predicted AF recurrence after catheter ablation.Palavras-chave
