TI  - Effect of Vitamin D Status on Invasive Electrophysiologic Parameters and Atrial Fibrillation Inducibility
AB  - Objectives: Deficiencies of Vitamin D (VitD) has beenassociated with coronary heart disease, hypertension andleft ventricular hypertropy. However its effects oncardiac conduction system and atrial fibrillation (AF)predisposition have not been studied yet. In this study weaim to evaluate the effects of VitD on invasiveelectrophysiologic parameters and AF inducibility.Materials and Methods: This retrospective crosssectional study included 135 patients. Study populationwas divided into three group as VitD sufficient, VitDinsufficient and VitD deficient according to baseline vitDlevels. Patients’ invasive electrophysiologic parametersand induced AF episodes were recorded.Results: Corrected sinus node recovery time, baselinecycle length, atrial-His interval, His-ventricular intervaland Wenckebach cycle length were lengthened in vitDdeficient group but they didn’t reach statisticalsignificance. The rate of AF inducibility was twice aslikely in VitD deficient group than sufficient group,however, it also didn’t reach statistical significance.Conclusion: Baseline VitD levels were not associatedwith cardiac electrophysiologic parameters and AFinducibility. To demonstrate the role of VitD in cardiacconduction system and AF inducibility thoroughly,further studies such as addressing VitD replacement arewarranted.
