Trimethylamine N‐oxide as a risk marker for ischemic stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation
Open accessAbstract
Trimethylamine N‐oxide (TMAO) is an independent risk factor of cardiovascular disease. Our objective was to explore the relation between TMAO and ischemic stroke (IS) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). A total of 68 patients with AF with IS and 111 ones without IS were enrolled. The plasma levels of TMAO remarkably increased in IS‐AF patients (8.25 ± 1.58 µM) compared with patients with AF (2.22 ± 0.09 µM, P < 0.01). The receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed that the best cutoff value of TMAO to predict IS in patients with AF was 3.53 µM with 75.0% sensitivity and 92.8% specificity (area under the curve: 0.917, 95% confidence intervals: 0.877‐0.957). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that TMAO was an independent predictor in IS. The level of TMAO was correlated with the CHA2DS2‐VASc score. In conclusion, TMAO was an independent predictor of IS, which could potentially refine stroke stratification in patients with AF.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
