Catheter ablation (CA) is an established treatment for drug-resistant Afib, yet recurrence remains a major concern, impacting quality of life in a significant portion of patients. Inflammation plays a critical role in the recurrence of Afib after ablation, with systemic inflammatory markers such as C-reactive protein being linked to higher recurrence rates. In this editorial, we discuss the study by Wang <i>et al</i>, published in the latest issue, which investigates the predictive role of the systemic immune inflammation index (SII) in Afib recurrence following radiofrequency CA. Elevated pre-ablation SII levels are identified as an independent predictor of recurrence, significantly enhancing the predictive power of the APPLE score. Integration of SII improved the APPLE score's predictive performance, as shown by enhanced area under the curve, net reclassification improvement, and integrated discrimination improvement. This combined model highlights the importance of both structural and inflammatory factors in Afib recurrence, offering a more personalized approach to patient management. Additionally, the affordability and accessibility of SII enhance its practicality in clinical workflows. The study by Wang <i>et al</i> underscores the potential of integrating SII with existing scoring systems to refine risk stratification and optimize treatment strategies.

Subsequent studies not only corroborated these findings but also identified HF as the most frequent first onset of cardiovascular involvement. The paramount role of proper management of common modifiable risk factors such as hypertension, obesity, dyslipidemia and smoking, became rapidly clear. Conversely, the impact of intensive glycemic control was more contentious. A large meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials reported a lack of effect of strict glycemic control as compared to standard care on HF-related outcomes. The considerable heterogeneity of the effect estimate and the higher risk conferred by thiazolidinediones suggested that mechanism of action of antidiabetic drugs played a key role. Furthermore, the safety concerns of pioglitazone led Food and Drug Administration to release a guidance for drug manufacturers stating that cardiovascular risk should be comprehensively evaluated during drug development. Surprisingly, in just a few years, large cardiovascular outcome trials established the beneficial cardiovascular effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors. These effects were consistent regardless diabetes and ejection fraction.

This procedure quickly became the treatment of choice, especially for symptomatic patients with AF refractory to medication. However, up to 45% of patients may experience AF recurrence within 12 months after RFCA. In this setting, AF recurrence is likely multifactorial, including atrial remodeling, local fibrosis or incomplete ablation due to failure in locating the trigger. Additionally, patients with obesity, sleep apnea, hypertension, or diabetes are at an increased risk of AF recurrence after RFCA. Inflammation is increasingly recognized as a potential key factor in AF recurrence and may arise both from the healing response of heart tissue post-ablation or from chronic low-grade inflammation, as observed in many risk factors. Here, we present an original study by Wang <i>et al</i>, which investigated the combination of the systemic immune-inflammation index-a marker developed to assess overall inflammatory status-and the APPLE score, designed to predict AF recurrence following RFCA.
