Abstract

<p>Objective: We evaluated risk factors and their prophylactic significance of sinus rhythm in case with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) detected in records of “Ningen Dock” medical examinations. </p><p>Method: Of the 90 cases in which NVAF was recorded on standard 12-lead ECG of 3,186 Ningen Dock examinees (2,212 males, 974 females between April 2020 and March 2021), sinus rhythm was demonstrated in the past time-series records of 30 confirmed cases (29 males, 1 female) <pre-AF sinus rhythm group>. The control group consisted of 172 consecutive sinus rhythm groups (SR) (169 males and 3 females) who underwent Ningen Dock medical examinations within the same period and were adjusted for age and sex. </p><p>Results: Significant items in the logistic analysis of 30 patients with pre-symptomatic sinus rhythm before the onset of NVAF were BMI (≧29), blood pressure, cardiothoracic ratio (CTR≧50), silhouette signs on chest X-ray, and left atrial load on electrocardiogram (negative P in precordial V1). The newly devised NVAF prediction score was higher in the pre-AF sinus rhythm group than in the control (8.1 ± 1.7 vs 3.8 ± 1.7, p<0.0001). The cutoff value based on the NVAF prediction score was 6 (area under the curve AUC 0.961), with a high sensitivity and specificity (0.86, 0.967). </p><p>Conclusions: Obesity, cardiac enlargement, left atrial load, and silhouette signs are useful risk factors for the development of NVAF. There are expected to prevent and enlight the onset of NVAF.</p>
