Background: Lower heart rates (HRs) prolong diastole, which increases filling pressures and wall stress. As a result, lower HRs may be associated with higher brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels and incident atrial fibrillation (AF). Beta-blockers may increase the risk for AF due to suppression of resting HRs. Objective: Examine the relationships of HR, BNP, beta-blockers and new-onset AF in the REVEAL-AF and SPRINT cohort of subjects at risk for developing AF. Methods: In REVEAL-AF, 383 subjects without a history of AF and a mean CHA2DS2VASC score of 4.4 ± 1.3 received an insertable cardiac monitor and were followed up to 30 months. In SPRINT, 7595 patients without prior history of AF and a mean CHA2DS2VASC score of 2.3 ± 1.2 were followed up to 60 months. Results: The median daytime HR in the REVEAL-AF cohort was 75bpm [IQR 68–83]. Subjects with below-median HRs had 2.4-fold higher BNP levels compared to subjects with above-median HRs (median BNP [IQR]: 62 pg/dl [37−112] vs. 26 pg/dl [13–53], p |
