Objective: to assess the association between circulating myocardial fibrosis biomarkers and echocardiographic stiffness parameters in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) after acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Methods. A cohort open prospective study was conducted with a total of 66 patients (median age 71.5 [63.8; 77.3] years, 63.6% men) with AF after ACS at least 3 months ago but not more than a year ago. Serum levels of procollagen type I carboxy-terminal propeptide (PICP), procollagen type III N-terminal propeptide (PIIINP), transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-β1), galectin-3 (Gal-3) were determined. All patients also underwent routine 2D transthoracic echocardiography and speckle tracking echocardiography. The relationship between laboratory and echocardiographic parameters was analyzed using linear and logistic regression.
Findings. A significant strong positive linear relationship was revealed between the PICP levels and the average left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) (R2=0.137, stand. β=0,371), the LVEDV index (R2=0.122, stand. β=0,350), the left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LV GLS) (R2=0.090, stand. β=0,300) and the LV GLS rate (R2=0.069, stand. β=-0,256) (p<0.05 for all). And a significant strong negative linear relationship was revealed between TGF-β1 levels and the left atrial (LA) expansion index (p=0.014, R2=0.094, stand. β=-0.306). During logistic regression, an increase in PIIINP concentration was statistically significantly associated with a decrease in the LP extensibility index (less than the median of 0.3) (Odds Ratio 1.11 (95% Confidence Interval: 1.01–1.21), p=0.018).
Conclusion. The data obtained expand the available limited literature information on the relationship between laboratory and instrumental parameters of LP and LV fibrosis.
