Popis: Abstract Biomarkers may help to improve our knowledge about the complex pathophysiology of atrial fibrillation (AF). In this study we sought to identify significant changes in biomarkers and clinical measures in patients with and without AF recurrence after electrical cardioversion. We measured 21 conventional and new biomarkers before and 30 days after electrical cardioversion and assessed the associations of changes in biomarker levels with rhythm status at follow-up. Significant between-group changes were observed for bone morphogenetic protein 10 (BMP10), N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and total bilirubin. Their respective changes were − 10.4%, − 62.0% and − 25.6% in patients with sinus rhythm, and 3.1%, 1.1% and − 9.4% in patients with recurrent AF, for a between-group difference of − 13.5% (95% confidence interval [CI] − 19.3% to − 7.6%; P
