BACKGROUND: Atrial remodeling associated with atrial fibrillation (AF) and sleep apnea is well known. Although sleep apnea is known to be associated with left atrial (LA) remodeling, its association with right atrial (RA) remodeling remains unclear. The study aimed to investigate the effect of sleep apnea on RA remodeling.
METHODS: We enrolled 141 AF patients who had undergone ablation. Sleep study results were evaluated using a portable sleep apnea test device. RA and LA volumes were determined by computed tomography (CT), and atrial structural remodeling was defined as atrial volume on CT≥110mL according to previous reports. The atrial substrate was evaluated by three-dimensional electroanatomical mapping.
RESULTS: After excluding 30 patients who received more than one catheter ablation or who could not receive enhanced CT, 111 patients were finally analyzed. The patients were classified into four groups according to the presence of RA and/or LA enlargement. Significant differences in AF type, N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels, and apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) were observed among the four groups. In univariate analysis, AHI values correlated with NT-proBNP levels (r=0.293, p=0.002), left ventricular ejection fraction (r=-0.198, p=0.044), LA volume (r=0.370, p<0.001), and RA volume (r=0.465, p<0.001). Multiple regression analysis showed that AHI was an independent predictor of increased RA volume, and LA was excluded as a multiple risk factor in AHI. AF type-adjusted AHI levels correlated with RA volume, and RA remodeling correlated with the percentage of LA low-voltage area.
CONCLUSIONS: Sleep apnea was strongly associated with RA structural remodeling regardless of paroxysmal and non-paroxysmal AF, and this relationship was more prominent than the effect of LA. Our results suggest that the association between sleep apnea and RA dilatation should be given attention.
