Item Assessment of Atrial Fibrillation and Ventricular Arrhythmia Risk after Bariatric Surgery by P Wave/QT Interval Dispersion(2018) Yilmaz, Mustafa; Altin, Cihan; Tekin, Abdullah; Erol, Tansel; Arer, Ilker; Nursal, Tarik Zafer; Torer, Nurkan; Erol, Varlik; Muderrisoglu, Haldun; 0000-0002-3628-4661; 0000-0002-5658-870X; 0000-0002-2557-9579; 0000-0002-9635-6313; 28900850; AAN-5153-2021; ABD-7304-2021; IQV-1169-2023; S-6973-2016; AAG-8233-2020The association of obesity with atrial fibrillation (AF) and with ventricular arrhythmias is well documented. The aim of this study was to investigate whether weight reduction by a laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy has any effect on P wave dispersion (PWD), a predictor of AF, and corrected QT interval dispersion (CQTD), a marker of ventricular arrhythmias, in obese individuals. In a prospective study, a total of 114 patients (79 females, 35 males) who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy were examined. The patients were followed 1 year. PWD and CQTD values before and 3rd, 6th, and 12th months after the surgery were calculated and compared. There was a statistically significant decline in body mass index (BMI), PWD, and CQTD values among baseline, 3rd, 6th, and 12th months (p < 0.001 for all comparisons). Correlation analysis showed a statistically significant correlation between Delta PWD and Delta BMI (r = 0.719, p < 0.001), Delta PWD and Delta left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD) (r = 0.291, p = 0.002), Delta PWD and Delta left atrial diameter (LAD) (r = 0.65, p < 0.001), Delta CQTD and Delta BMI (r = 0.266, p = 0.004), Delta CQTD and Delta LVEDD (r = 0.35, p < 0.001), Delta CQTD and Delta LAD (r = 0.289, p = 0.002). In multiple linear regression analysis, there was a statistically significant relationship between Delta PWD and Delta BMI (beta = 0.713, p < 0.001), Delta PWD and Delta LVEDD (beta = 0.174, p = 0.016), Delta PWD and Delta LAD (beta = 0.619, p < 0.001), Delta CQTD and Delta BMI (beta = 0.247, p = 0.011), Delta CQTD and Delta LVEDD (beta = 0.304, p < 0.001), Delta CQTD and Delta LAD (beta = 0.235, p = 0.009). PWD and CQTD values of patients were shown to be attenuated after bariatric surgery. These results indirectly offer that there may be a reduction in risk of AF, ventricular arrhythmia, and sudden cardiac death after obesity surgery.Item Assessment Of P Wave/Qt Interval Dispersion, Tp-E Interval, Tp-E/Qt Ratio After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation In Geriatric Patients With Aortic Stenosis(2018) Yilmaz, Mustafa; Gullu, Hakan; Demircan, Senol; Sezgin, Alpay Turan; Bilgel, Ziya Gokalp; Muderrisoglu, Haldun; 0000-0002-2557-9579; 0000-0002-9635-6313; S-6973-2016; AAG-8233-2020Introduction: One of the most important reasons for a high mortality and morbidity rate in geriatric patients with calcific aortic stenosis is arrhythmias. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation is an alternative to conventional aortic valve surgery for high-risk patients because of its less-invasive nature. Although hemodynamic and functional recoveries are established after transcatheter aortic valve implantation, whether it leads to a decrease in the risk of atrial fibrillation, ventricular arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death remains unclear. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the risks associated with aortic stenosis by assessing the rates of P wave dispersion for estimating the atrial fibrillation risk and QT interval dispersion, Tp-e interval, and Tp-e/QT ratio for ventricular arrhythmia and assessing sudden cardiac death risk before and after implantation. Materials and Method: In a retrospective study, a total of 39 subjects [14 males (35.89%) and 25 females (64.11%); mean age=81.51 +/- 8.79 years] were enrolled. P wave/QT interval dispersion, Tp-e interval and Tp-e/QT ratio values before and 3rd months after implantation were calculated and compared. Results: There was a statistically significant decline in P wave/QT interval dispersion, Tp-e interval, Tp-e/QT ratio values between preoperative, and 3rd, months (43.72 +/- 7.78 vs. 35.15 +/- 8.92, 61.64 +/- 17.36 vs. 49.41 +/- 12.64, 84.59 +/- 7.64 vs. 73.21 +/- 6.46, 0.21 +/- 0.01 vs. 0.18 +/- 0.01, respectively, p<0.001 for all comparisons). Conclusion: P wave/QT interval dispersion, Tp-e interval and Tp-e/QT ratio were shown to be attenuated after transcatheter aortic valve implantation. These results indirectly offer that there may be a reduction in risk of atrial fibrillation, ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death.
