RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Data regarding the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) during the post-acute phase of COVID-19 are lacking. OBJECTIVE: We assessed the risk of incident AF in COVID-19 recovered patients by performing a systematic review and meta-analysis of the available data. METHODS: Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines, we searched Medline and Scopus to locate all articles published up to December 1, 2023, reporting the risk of AF in patients recovered from COVID-19 infection compared with noninfected patients in whom the arrhythmia developed during the same follow-up period. AF risk was evaluated by the Mantel-Haenszel random effects model with hazard ratio as the effect measure with 95% confidence interval (CI); heterogeneity was assessed by Higgins I2 statistic. RESULTS: Overall, 19,478,173 patients (mean age, 56.5 years; 63.0% male) enrolled in 5 observational studies were included in the analysis. Of these, 5,692,510 recovered from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection. During a mean follow-up of 14.5 ± 3.2 months, a random effects model revealed a pooled incidence of new-onset AF in 2.6% of cases (95% CI, 1.8%-6.18%). Recovered COVID-19 patients presented with a higher risk of incident AF (hazard ratio, 1.57; 95% CI, 1.24-1.99; P < .0001; I2 = 77.9%) compared with noninfected patients during the same follow-up period. Sensitivity analyses confirmed the yielded results. A multivariable metaregression including age, male sex, history of hypertension, coronary artery disease, and length of follow-up was able to explain a significant part of the heterogeneity (R2 = 54.3%; P = .01). CONCLUSION: Recovered COVID-19 patients have a higher risk of AF events compared with individuals from the general population.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The unfavorable effect of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) on cardiovascular (CV) outcomes and mortality was reported in the general population. We investigated the impact of PPIs on CV outcomes and total mortality in older people with diabetes mellitus (DM) for whom evidence is missing. METHODS: Using administrative health databases of the Lombardy Region, we analyzed the risk of myocardial infarction (MI), ischemic stroke and total mortality in individuals with DM (≥65 years of age) exposed to PPIs in 2015 and followed up to 2021. The outcomes were analyzed using a multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazards model to compute hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). HRs between PPI users and non-users were also estimated in selected subgroups. A sensitivity analysis was also performed in a 1:1 propensity score matching population. RESULTS: A total of 284,068 patients were included in the analysis (49.4% PPI users, 50.6% non-PPI users). A higher prevalence of comorbidities and medications was reported in PPI users as compared with non-users. During a median follow-up of 6.7 years, the use of PPIs was associated with a higher risk for ischemic stroke (HR 1.14, 95% CI 95% 1.08-1.20), MI (HR 1.36, 95% CI 1.31-1.41) and total mortality (HR 1.24, 95% CI 1.22-1.26). These risks were higher in PPI users regardless of the PPI type. Among sexes, previous CV diseases, and insulin subgroups, the use of PPIs was correlated with a statistically significant increased risk of ischemic stroke in men, in individuals without a history of CV disease, and in those who were not treated with insulin. A significantly higher risk of MI was associated with PPIs for all subgroups, as well as for total mortality, with the exception of patients with a previous history of CV diseases. The sensitivity analysis confirmed the results of the unmatched cohort. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings confirmed an increased risk of CV events and all-cause mortality in a large population of older adults with DM exposed to PPIs. This could have an important impact on public health and costs for National Health Service, therefore a regular assessment of PPI appropriateness is recommended, particularly in this population.
