ПРОГНОЗИРОВАНИЕ ТРАНСФОРМАЦИИ РЕЦИДИВИРУЮЩЕЙ ФОРМЫ ФИБРИЛЛЯЦИИ ПРЕДСЕРДИЙ В ХРОНИЧЕСКУЮ У ПАЦИЕНТОВ С АРТЕРИАЛЬНОЙ ГИПЕРТОНИЕЙ... by Н. Е. Григориади, Л. М. Василец, А. В. Туев, А. В. Петруша, Е. А. Ратанова

“…It was revealed that the performance of remodeling of the left atrium (the level of PICP, TIMP-1, and the index of the PL to the BSA) have predictive value in the risk of progression of AF. The risk of transition to a chronic form of arrhythmia increases as the concentration of PICP over 133 ng/ml (Se 70–73% and Sp 62–75%), at a concentration of TIMP-1 less than 490 ng/ml (Se 67–78%, Sp 69–75%) and index of LP to PPT than 32–34 ml/m 2 (Se 80%, Sp 77–83%). …”
