Abstract:
Objiective:To investigate the relationship between matrix metalloproteinases-2(MMP-2) and atrial fibrillation,also to investigate the relationship between MMP-2,cardiac function and left atria diameter of patients with atrial fibrillation.Methods:49 patients with persistent atrial fibrillation were included in the atrial fibrillation groups,and 47 patients with sinus rhythm were selected in the control group,the serum concentration of MMP-2 and TIMP-2 were measured with ELISA.The size of left atria diameter were detected with Doppler Ultrasonic cardiogram.Results:(1) The level of MMP-2 in atrial fibrillation group was significantly higher than that in control group(P0.05).(2) The size of left atria diameter in atrial fibrillation group was significant higher than that in the control group(P
