Research Progress in the Correlation between Inflammation-Related Indicators and Atrial Fibrillation

心房颤动(Atrial Fibrillation, AF)是最常见的心律失常之一，表现为心房正常的电活动被快速无序的颤动波取代，具有较高的复发率、致残率及死亡率。近年来，房颤在心血管疾病中占据着重要地位，可导致诸多严重不良后果。随着对房颤机制的深入研究，发现炎症与房颤密切相关。因此本文就相关炎症指标如红细胞分布宽度(Red Blood Cell Distribution Width, RDW)、C反应蛋白(C-Reactive Protein, CRP)、中性粒细胞/淋巴细胞比值(Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio, NLR)、血小板/淋巴细胞比值(Platelet to Lymphocyte Ratio, PLR)等炎症指标与心房颤动相关性的研究进展进行综述。Atrial fibrillation (atrial fibrillation, AF) is one of the most common arrhythmias, and the normal electrical activity of the atrium is replaced by a rapid and disordered fibrillation wave, which has a high rate of recurrence, disability, and mortality. In recent years, AF occupies an important role in cardiovascular diseases and can lead to many serious adverse consequences. With the intensive study of the mechanism of AF, it was found that inflammation is closely related to AF. Therefore, in this paper, the relevant inflammatory indicators, such as red blood cell distribution width (RDW), C-reactive protein (CRP), neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and atrial fibrillation were reviewed.
