Association between sleep disordered breathing and electrocardiographic markers of atrial abnormalities: the MESA study.


ABSTRACT: Electrocardiographic (ECG) markers of left atrial (LA) abnormalities have been linked to increased risk of atrial fibrillation (AF). Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) has been associated with increased risk of AF. We aimed to examine the association of ECG markers of LA abnormalities with SDB.1546 participants (mean age 67.2 years, 53.4% women, and 63.3% non-whites) from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis Exam 5 Sleep ancillary study were included in this analysis. ECG markers of LA abnormalities (P wave terminal force in V1 (PTFV1), maximum P wave duration, PR interval and heart rate corrected PR interval) were measured from resting standard digital ECG tracings using standardized processing. Linear and logistic regression analyses were utilized to examine the cross-sectional associations of measures of SDB (apnea hypopnea index [AHI] and % time spent with oxygen saturation?<90% [%SpO290]) with each ECG marker. In a multivariable analysis adjusting for demographics, cardiovascular risk factors, and comorbidities, AHI was associated with greater PTFV1 but not with other ECG markers of LA abnormalities. A 1-SD increase of AHI (16.6/hr) was associated with higher levels of PTFV1 (175.1 µV.ms, 95% confidence interval [95%CI] 75.4, 274.7) and higher odds of abnormally elevated PTFV1 (?4000 µV.ms) (Odds Ratio: 1.21 [95%CI 1.05, 1.39]). No association was found between %SpO290 and ECG markers of LA abnormalities.Severity of SDB, as measured by AHI, is associated with subclinical LA disease, as indicated by PTFV1. PTFV1 may be an important ECG marker linking SDB and AF.
