摘要：

We evaluated the clinical characteristics and echocardiographic findings in 118 patients with mitral valve prolapse (MVP). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that left atrial diameter and the site of MVP are independent predictors of atrial fibrillation prevalence in patients with MVP, suggesting that the direction of mitral regurgitation flow may play a critical role in electrical remodeling to induce atrial fibrillation.
