Sex-Related Differences in Atrial Remodeling in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation: Relationship to Ablation Outcomes

Geoffrey R. Wong et al.

Summary: This study found that women with AF have higher risks of recurrence, which may be attributed to differences in atrial electrophysiological substrate. The findings provide a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms behind poor treatment outcomes in female AF patients.

The Association between Nutritional Status and Length of Hospital Stay among Patients with Hypertension

Michal Czapla et al.

Summary: “Nutritional status and body mass index are related to the length of hospital stay for patients with hypertension. Being either underweight or obese is associated with longer hospitalizations. Lower LDL and HDL levels, as well as higher CRP concentrations, are also factors that contribute to prolonged hospitalizations.”

Elevated levels of body mass index and waist circumference, but not high variability, are associated with an increased risk of atrial fibrillation

Maoxiang Zhao et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the impacts of obesity and variability of body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) on the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF). The results showed that elevated levels of BMI and WC were associated with an increased risk of AF, while variability in BMI and WC were not. Therefore, controlling BMI and WC levels may be beneficial for AF prevention.

Relationship between nutritional status and length of hospital stay among patients with atrial fibrillation - a result of the nutritional status heart study

Michal Czapla et al.

Summary: Nutritional status is related to the length of hospital stay for patients with atrial fibrillation. Malnutrition, lower levels of serum LDL, HDL, potassium, and sodium are risk factors for prolonged hospitalization. Assessment of nutritional status in patients with atrial fibrillation is important.

Sex Differences in Atrial Fibrillation Risk The VITAL Rhythm Study

Hasan K. Siddiqi et al.

Summary: This study examines sex differences in atrial fibrillation (AF) incidence in a contemporary cohort without prevalent cardiovascular disease (CVD). It suggests that after controlling for height and/or body size, women without CVD at baseline were at higher risk for AF than men.

Summary: Baseline characteristics differ significantly between male and female AF patients, and they are treated differently for AF. Female AF patients have higher risks of heart failure hospitalization and recurrent AF.

Decline of nutritional status in the first week of hospitalisation predicts longer length of stay and hospital readmission during 6-month follow-up

Julia Lima et al.

Summary: This study conducted a prospective cohort study to assess changes in nutritional status (NS) through the use of Subjective Global Assessment (SGA) and severe weight loss among hospitalized patients over 18 years of age. The results showed that severe weight loss was more effective in identifying deterioration of NS than changes in SGA category. Both methods were associated with prolonged length of hospital stay, but only changes in SGA category predicted hospital readmission. These findings highlight the importance of nutritional monitoring and suggest further research to prevent undetected short-term deterioration of NS.

Summary: The study identified malnutrition as an independent predictor for AF recurrence using CONUT score and GNRI. Adding CONUT score or GNRI to the base prediction model significantly improved the discrimination and calibration for AF recurrence.

Tagayasu Anzai et al.

Summary: A study on 3741 Japanese-American men revealed a paradoxical association between high cholesterol levels and atrial fibrillation prevalence in those over 75 years old, while no such association was found in individuals under 75 years old. This paradoxical relationship may be explained by Neyman's bias.

Determinants of Prolonged Length of Hospital Stay of Patients with Atrial Fibrillation

Ancuta Elena Vijan et al.

Summary: This study found that acute coronary syndromes, infections, heart failure, increased NT-proBNP levels, heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, and elevated HAS-BLED score were independent predictors of extended length of hospital stay in atrial fibrillation patients.

Raisa L. Silva et al.

Summary: Women with atrial fibrillation have worse patient-reported outcomes compared to men, even after considering relevant factors and the modification by sex. This highlights the importance of gender-based considerations when evaluating patient-reported outcomes in atrial fibrillation.

Daehoon Kim et al.

Summary: Nutritional status is closely related to the risk of complications in patients undergoing atrial fibrillation catheter ablation, with moderate-to-severe malnutrition associated with the highest risk. However, nutritional status did not impact long-term rhythm outcomes in these patients.
