Intermediate Monocytes and High Levels of Chemokine CCL3 Are Associated With Increased Risk of Atrial Fibrillation in the General Population.
Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is increasing in prevalence and linked to higher morbidity and mortality rates. Emerging evidence implicates inflammation as a key driver of AF pathogenesis.1 Our study aimed to investi- gate associations between circulating monocyte subsets, monocyte-attracting chemokines and incidence of AF in a large community-based cohort.
