Background: The prognostic effect of concomitant hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) on adverse events in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) has not been evaluated in a multicenter prospective cohort study in Japan.Methods and Results: Using the Hokuriku-Plus AF Registry, 1,396 patients with nonvalvular AF (1,018 men, 72.3±9.7 years old) were assessed prospectively; 72 (5.2%) had concomitant HCM. During a median follow-up of 5.0 years (interquartile range 3.5–5.3 years), 79 cases of thromboembolism (1.3 per 100 person-years) and 192 of heart failure (HF) (3.2 per 100 person-years) occurred. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that the HCM group had a significantly greater incidence of thromboembolism (P=0.002 by log-rank test) and HF (P<0.0001 by a log-rank test) than the non-HCM group. The Cox proportional hazards model demonstrated that persistent AF (adjusted hazard ratio 2.98, 95% confidence interval 1.56–6.21), the CHA2DS2-VASc score (1.35, 1.18–1.54), and concomitant HCM (2.48, 1.16–4.79) were significantly associated with thromboembolism. Conversely, concomitant HCM (2.81, 1.72–4.43), older age (1.07, 1.05–1.10), lower body mass index (0.95, 0.91–0.99), a history of HF (2.49, 1.77–3.52), and lower left ventricular ejection fraction (0.98, 0.97–0.99) were significantly associated with the development of HF.Conclusions: Concomitant HCM predicts the incidence of thromboembolism and HF in AF patients.

Background: A recent randomized trial demonstrated that catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (EF) is associated with a reduction in death or heart failure. However, the effect of catheter ablation for AF in patients with heart failure with mid-range or preserved EF is unclear.Methods and Results: We screened 899 AF patients (72.4% male, mean age 68.4 years) with heart failure and left ventricular EF ≥40% from 2 Japanese multicenter AF registries: the Atrial Fibrillation registry to Follow the long-teRm Outcomes and use of aNTIcoagulants aftER Ablation (AF Frontier Ablation Registry) as the ablation group (525 patients who underwent ablation) and the Hokuriku-Plus AF Registry as the medical therapy group (374 patients who did not undergo ablation). Propensity score matching was performed in these 2 registries to yield 106 matched patient pairs. The primary endpoint was a composite of cardiovascular death and hospitalization for heart failure. At 24.6 months, the ablation group had a significantly lower incidence of the primary endpoint (hazard ratio 0.32; 95% confidence interval 0.13–0.70; P=0.004) than the medical therapy group.Conclusions: Compared with medical therapy, catheter ablation for AF in patients with heart failure and mid-range or preserved EF was associated with a significantly lower incidence of cardiovascular death or hospitalization for heart failure.
