Objective To investigate the relationship between interleukin 1β( IL?1β) , interleukin?33 ( IL?33) , neutrophil?to?lymphocyte ratio ( NLR ) and atrial fibrillation. Methods Eighty?two patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation treated in the department of cardiology in the Fourth People′s Hospital of Jinan from October 2015 to October 2016 were enrolled in the study,including 43 patients with persistent atrial fibrillation and 39 patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. 50 healthy subjects were selected as the control group. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine the concentration of IL?1βand IL?33,and the left atrial diameter ( LAD) was measured by echocardiography. Results ( 1) The concentrations of IL?1β,NLR and LAD in the paroxysmal atrial fibrillation group were (24. 44±4. 89) ng/L,(2. 51±1. 22) %,(36. 16± 6. 12) mm,the concentrations of IL?1β,NLR and LAD in the persistent atrial fibrillation group were (26. 95±5. 86) ng/L,(5. 7±1. 8) %,(39. 36±4. 78) mm and the values in the control group were (19. 53±4. 51) ng/L,(1. 82 ± 0. 41 ) %, ( 33. 31 ± 2. 89 ) mm, respectively. The differences among the three groups were statistically significant ( F=16. 74,11. 82,14. 85,P<0. 01) . The indexes of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation group and persistent atrial fibrillation group were higher than those of the control group ( P<0. 01 ) . ( 2 ) In the persistent atrial fibrillation group, NLR and LAD were ( 5. 7 ± 1. 8 )% , and ( 39. 36 ± 4. 78 ) mm, higher than those of the paroxysmal atrial fibrillation group ( (2. 51±1. 22)%,(36. 16±6. 12) mm),the differences were statistically significant ( P<0. 01) . However,the level of IL?1βin the persistent atrial fibrillation group was not significantly different from that in the paroxysmal atrial fibrillation group ( (26. 95±5. 86) ng/L vs. (24. 44±4. 89) ng/L,P>0. 05). (3) The concentrations of IL?33 in the paroxysmal atrial fibrillation group,atrial fibrillation group, control group were ( 48. 31 ± 4. 72 ) ng/L, ( 50. 03 ± 2. 18 ) ng/L, ( 56. 87 ± 5. 12 ) ng/L, respectively. The difference among the three groups has no statistical significance ( F=2. 52, P>0. 05 ) . ( 4 ) NLR level was positively correlated with LAD ( r=0. 32,P=0. 002) . There was no significant correlation among IL?1β,IL?33 and LAD ( r=0. 16, P=0. 11, r=0. 02, P=0. 37 ) . Conclusion The levels of IL?1β, NLR and LAD in peripheral blood of patients with atrial fibrillation were significantly higher than those in patients with sinus rhythm,and there was a positive correlation between NLR and LAD.
