Approximately 65% of patients with AF who underwent their first CA had abnormal glucose metabolism. Patients with DM had significantly impaired LA function compared with non-DM patients. Impaired glucose tolerance/IFG as well as DM carries significant risk of unfavourable LA reverse remodelling. Our observations may provide valuable information regarding the mechanisms and therapeutic strategies of glucose metabolism-related AF.
