Abstract

Objective

To evaluate the association and predictive value of midregional pro-atrial natriuretic peptide (MR-proANP), bone morphogenetic protein (BMP-7), and left atrial diameter (LAD) with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) in postmenopausal women.

Methods

This retrospective study included 288 postmenopausal women treated at Chongming Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Medicine and Health Sciences from January 2022 to October 2024. Patients were categorized into the NVAF and control groups based on electrocardiogram findings. Observation indicators were LAD, MR-proANP, BMP-7, homocysteine (Hcy), and free thyroxine (FT4). Echocardiography excluded valvular disease and measured LAD. Serum biomarkers were quantified using ELISA. Logistic regression identified independent risk factors, and ROC curves assessed predictive value.

Results

Of the 288 participants, 175 (61%) had NVAF. MR-proANP (425.8 vs. 289.4 nmol/L, p < 0.001), and LAD (38.4 vs. 32.5 mm, p < 0.001) were significantly higher in the NVAF group, whereas BMP-7 levels were lower (2.22 vs. 2.67 pg/L, p < 0.001). Additionally, Hcy (13.59 vs. 11.64 nmol/L, p = 0.023) and FT4 (16.91 vs. 15.85 nmol/L, p = 0.014) levels were also significantly elevated in the NVAF group. Multivariate logistic regression showed MR-proANP (OR 1.005, 95% CI 1.001–1.008), BMP-7 (OR 0.338, 95% CI 0.226–0.504), and LAD (OR 1.291, 95% CI 1.205–1.383) as independent risk factors for NVAF. Combined ROC analysis for MR-proANP, BMP-7, and LAD demonstrated an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.803, indicating superior predictive sensitivity and specificity than one indicator alone.

Conclusion

MR-proANP, BMP-7, and LAD are independent risk factors for NVAF in postmenopausal women. Their combined measurement provides valuable predictive insights, aiding in clinical decision-making.

期刊介绍： The ANNALS OF NONINVASIVE ELECTROCARDIOLOGY (A.N.E) is an online only journal that incorporates ongoing advances in the clinical application and technology of traditional and new ECG-based techniques in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiac patients. ANE is the first journal in an evolving subspecialty that incorporates ongoing advances in the clinical application and technology of traditional and new ECG-based techniques in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiac patients. The publication includes topics related to 12-lead, exercise and high-resolution electrocardiography, arrhythmias, ischemia, repolarization phenomena, heart rate variability, circadian rhythms, bioengineering technology, signal-averaged ECGs, T-wave alternans and automatic external defibrillation. ANE publishes peer-reviewed articles of interest to clinicians and researchers in the field of noninvasive electrocardiology. Original research, clinical studies, state-of-the-art reviews, case reports, technical notes, and letters to the editors will be published to meet future demands in this field.
