Key result
Lower TCBI and higher age predict POAF after CABG.
Why the study?
Does the Triglyceride-Cholesterol-Body Weight Index predict postoperative atrial fibrillation in patients undergoing cardiac surgery?
Does the Triglyceride-Cholesterol-Body Weight Index predict postoperative atrial fibrillation in patients undergoing cardiac surgery?
The Triglyceride-Cholesterol-Body Weight Index is discussed as a potential nutritional index for predicting postoperative atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery.

Zülkif Tanrıverdi (2025) conducted an editorial in Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation (n=321). Triglyceride-Cholesterol-Body Weight Index (TCBI) was evaluated on Development of postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF). A lower Triglyceride-Cholesterol-Body Weight Index (TCBI) and higher age were identified as independent predictors of postoperative atrial fibrillation in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting.
