摘要
To the Editor I have read the article entitled "Predictors of new-onset atrial fibrillation in elderly patients with coronary artery disease after coronary artery bypass graft" by Anatol'evna, et al. with great interest. The investigators reported that independent predictors of postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) in eld- erly patients were left atrium dimension (LA) and the in- creased postoperative concentration of Interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8 and superoxide dismutase.
