Algorithm for personalization of diet therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation and obesity based on metabolic status assessment

Aim: To develop an algorithm for personalizing the diet therapy of patients with obesity and atrial fibrillation (AF) based on the assessment of the metabolic status.Material and Methods. The study included 100 patients with grade III obesity and paroxysmal AF. All subjects had nonvalvular AF. Anthropometric parameters, actual nutrition, bioimedance analysis of body composition, basal metabolic rate (BMR) were assessed.Results. Changes in basal metabolism by gender were identified. In women - a decrease in the rate of carboydrate oxidation (CHO) (by 27 ± 12.2%, p
