Autoantibodies to M2-cholinoreceptors as a potential development factor of arrhythmia in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation

Abstract: Aim. We aimed to assess autoantibodies to M2-cholinoceptors (M2-CR) in patients with paroxysmal lone atrial fibrillation (AF) and in patients with AF and arterial hypertension (AH). Materials and methods. 100 patients with lone AF and 84 patients with AF and AH were included. Patients underwent clinical blood and urinalysis, assessment of biochemistry blood panel, 12-lead ECG, 24-hour Holter monitoring, echocardiography and stress - testing (treadmill or stress - echocardiography). Assessment of IgM and IgG au… Show more
