摘要
Background-Treatment with renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitors might restrain the structural/electrical remodeling associated with atrial fibrillation (AF). Limited evidence exists regarding the potential benefits of RAS inhibition post-acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in patients with AF. This study sought to assess the association between RAS inhibition and all-cause mortality and new-onset AF in patients with/without congestive heart failure (CHF) post-AMI. Methods and Results-Patients hospitalized for AMI between 2006 and 2012 were identified in Swedish registries. Patients were stratified in 4 subgroups; patients with CHF and AF (n=11 489); patients with CHF without AF (n=31 676); patients with AF without CHF (n=10 066); and patients without both CHF and AF (n=59 417). Patients exposed to RAS inhibition were compared to nontreated. Three-year risk of all-cause mortality and new-onset AF was assessed using adjusted Cox regression analyses. At discharge, 83 291 (73.9%) patients received RAS inhibition. RAS inhibition was associated with lower 3-year risk of all-cause mortality in CHF patients with AF, adjusted hazard ratio (HR) with 95% CI 0.75 (0.70-0.81), CHF patients without AF, HR 0.65 (0.60-0.69), AF patients without CHF, HR 0.82 (0.75-0.90), and in patients without CHF and AF, HR 0.76 (0.72-0.81), respectively. RAS inhibition was not associated with lower 3-year risk of new-onset AF in patients without AF but with/without CHF; HR 0.96 (0.84-1.10) and 1.12 (1.02-1.22), respectively. Conclusions-RAS inhibition post-AMI was associated with lower risk of all-cause mortality. In patients with/without CHF, RAS inhibition was not associated with lower incidence of new-onset AF.
