Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To explore the expression of plasma CTRP3 in patients with non-valvular paroxysmal atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation and its predictive value for disease recurrence. METHODS: In this retrospective study, the patients in the Heart Center of Beijing Chaoyang Hospital from June 2016 to November 2017 were collected. According to the guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of atrial fibrillation 2016, patients diagnosed with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation were selected as the study subjects. All patients with successful radiofrequency ablation of atrial fibrillation were followed up by telephone or outpatient service at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after radiofrequency ablation, respectively. Recurrence of atrial fibrillation was defined as a duration of rapid atrial arrhythmia ≥30 seconds confirmed by electrocardiogram or 24-hour ambulatory electrocardiogram 3 months after radiofrequency ablation. According to the follow-up results, the patients were divided into a recurrent group and non-recurrent group. The level of CTRP3 was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS: Analysis of clinical baseline data showed significant differences between the recurrent group and the non-recurrent group in age, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, EGFR, thyroid stimulating hormone level, platelet count, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, NT proBNP, left atrial anterior posterior diameter, left atrial upper and lower diameter and CTRP3 (P < 0.05). The univariate logistic regression showed that older age (or = 1.08, P < 0.001), increased diastolic blood pressure (OR = 1.051, P = 0.002), cardiac dysfunction (OR = 2.594, P = 0.01), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (OR = 1.134, P = 0.008) and NT proBNP (OR = 1.000, P = 0.005), increased anterior posterior diameter of left atrium (OR = 1.158, P < 0.001), increased upper and lower diameter of left atrium (OR = 1.133, P < 0.001), thrombocytopenia (OR = -0.008, P < 0.027) and CTRP3 (OR = 1.007, P = 0.006) were the risk factors for the recurrence of atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation. Moreover, the multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that CTRP3 (or = 1.032, P = 0.005) was an independent predictor of recurrence. CONCLUSION: The plasma concentration of CTRP3 increased significantly in patients with recurrent atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation. Moreover, CTRP3 was a predictor of recurrence after radiofrequency ablation in patients with atrial fibrillation. AJTR
