Abstract:
The association between sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after catheter ablation among patients with diabetes and AF remains unclear. Methods and Results Patients with AF undergoing initial catheter ablation with a history of diabetes from the China AF registry were included. Patients using SGLT2i were identified and matched by propensity score with non‐SGLT2i patients in a 1:3 ratio. The main outcome was AF recurrence during the 18‐month follow‐up. A total of 138 patients with diabetes with SGLT2i therapy and 387 without SGLT2i were analyzed. AF recurrence occurred in 37 patients (26.8%) in the SGLT2i group and 152 patients (39.3%) in the non‐SGLT2i group during a total of 593.3 person‐years follow‐up. The SGLT2i group was associated with lower AF recurrence compared with the non‐SGLT2i group (hazard ratio, 0.63 [95% CI, 0.44–0.90], P =0.007). A total of 4 studies were analyzed in our meta‐analysis demonstrating that SGLT2i was associated with lower AF recurrence after catheter ablation (odds ratio, 0.61 [95% CI, 0.54–0.69]; P 〈 0.001, I 2 =0.0%). Conclusions Our prospective study coupled with a meta‐analysis demonstrated a lower risk of AF recurrence with the use of SGLT2i among patients with diabetes after AF ablation.
