目的研究肥胖心房颤动(房颤)患者的电和电解剖重构，以及心外膜脂肪堆积对邻近心房组织的影响。背景肥胖与房颤风险增加有关。排除后，将26例患者分为2组(肥胖：体重指数=27 kg/m(2)，参照：BMI
OBJECTIVES The aims of the study were to characterize: 1) electrical and electroanatomical remodeling in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) with obesity; and 2) the impact of epicardial fat depots on adjacent atrial tissue.BACKGROUND Obesity is associated with an increased risk of AF.METHODS A total of 115 patients with AF who underwent AF ablation were screened. After exclusion, 26 patients were divided into 2 groups (obese: body mass index [BMI] >= 27 kg/m(2) and reference: BMI
