Prevalence and Clinical Significance of Left Atrial Remodeling in Competitive Athletes
چکیده انگلیسی
In a large population of highly trained athletes, enlarged LA dimension ≥40 mm was relatively common (20%), with the upper limits of 45 mm in women and 50 mm in men distinguishing physiologic cardiac remodeling (“athlete's heart”) from pathologic cardiac conditions. Atrial fibrillation and other supraventricular tachyarrhythmias proved to be uncommon (prevalence <1%) and similar to that in the general population, despite the frequency of LA enlargement. Left atrial remodeling in competitive athletes may be regarded as a physiologic adaptation to exercise conditioning, largely without adverse clinical consequences.
