Atrial fibrillation type modulates the clinical predictive value of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio for atrial fibrillation recurrence after catheter ablation

Background: The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been proposed as an indicator of a systemic inflammatory response. There are baseline differences in the inflammation status between paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) and persistent AF (PerAF). The NLR changes and late recurrences of AF (LR...
