Impact of atrial functional substrate in patients with atrial fibrillation: The potential utility of decremental evoked potential mapping in the atrium
This study demonstrated a correlation between atrial DEEP and longer duration of AF, higher brain natriuretic peptide levels, greater pericardial fat volume, and more early AF recurrence, suggesting that DEEP reflects a certain aspect of atrial electrophysiological remodeling and is a potential ablation target for AF.
