Summary

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has been proved to increase the incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF) with persistent systemic inflammation. Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) has been found to enhance the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Therefore, we performed the present study to observe the expression and significance of proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin 9 (PCSK9) in patients with RA combined atrial fibrillation.
