    The study evaluated the predictive value of the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) for atrial fibrillation recurrence after ablation in hypertensive patients.

  • 2

    Elevated SII was independently linked to a higher risk of atrial fibrillation recurrence, with a hazard ratio of 1.138 per 100-unit increase.

  • 3

    Patients with high SII and poorly controlled blood pressure had over a fourfold increased risk of atrial fibrillation recurrence.

  • 4

    SII demonstrated superior predictive performance compared to traditional markers, improving risk stratification for atrial fibrillation recurrence.

  • 5

    The findings suggest that combining SII assessment with blood pressure control status can enhance individualized risk management in hypertensive patients.
