The association of AHREs with adverse clinical events has been demonstrated in several recent studies, implying that morbidity and mortality can be significantly prevented by prompt recognition and intervention. Inflammation and oxidative stress are among several mechanisms that contribute to the pathogenesis of AF. The monocyte-to-high-density lipoprotein ratio (M/H ratio) is a novel indicator of both inflammation and oxidative stress. In this study, we aimed to investigate the value of the M/H ratio for predicting AHREs detected by CIEDs %K Atrial high-rate episodes %K cardiac implantable electronic devices %K monocyte-to-high-density lipoprotein ratio %K inflammation %K oxidative stress %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6191558/
