Combining computed tomography features of left atrial epicardial and pericoronary adipose tissue with the triglyceride-glucose index to predict the recurrence of atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency catheter ablation: a machine learning study

Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) represents an important treatment option for atrial fibrillation (AF); however, the recurrence rate following surgery is relatively high. This study aimed to predict the recurrence of AF after RFCA using interpretable machine learning models that combined the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and the quantification of left atrial epicardial and pericoronary adipose tissue.
