Atrial Fibroblasts‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Exacerbate Atrial Arrhythmogenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Exosome miR‐224‐5p derived from angiotensin II‐treated atrial fibroblasts creates a substrate for AF by promoting atrial electrical remodeling. Increased exosome miR‐224‐5p enhances AF susceptibility by inhibiting CACNA1c expression and decreasing ICa current of atrial cardiomyocytes.

Prolonged PR interval, first-degree heart block and adverse cardiovascular outcomes: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

, 2016
Objective: First-degree atrioventricular block is frequently encountered in clinical practice and is generally considered a benign process. However, there is emerging evidence that prolonged PR interval may be associated with adverse outcomes. This study

Impact of atrial fibrillation on the risk of death: the Framingham Heart Study.

Circulation, 1998
BACKGROUND Atrial fibrillation (AF) causes substantial morbidity. It is uncertain whether AF is associated with excess mortality independent of associated cardiac conditions and risk factors. METHODS AND RESULTS We examined the mortality of subjects 55

Characterizing the Healthcare Utilization and Costs of Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is the second‐most common inherited bleeding disorder worldwide, afflicting one in 4000–5000 people, and is the most morbid inherited bleeding disorder of women. HHT causes recurrent severe epistaxis, chronic gastrointestinal bleeding, heavy menstrual bleeding, and arteriovenous malformations in the ...

Aortic stiffness in lone atrial fibrillation: a novel risk factor for arrhythmia recurrence. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
BackgroundRecent community-based research has linked aortic stiffness to the development of atrial fibrillation. We posit that aortic stiffness contributes to adverse atrial remodeling leading to the persistence of atrial fibrillation following catheter ...

Management of Cardiovascular Health Issues in Turner Syndrome: Expert Insights and Expanded Recommendations From the 2024 Guideline Development Team

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Turner syndrome (TS) is frequently complicated by congenital heart disease (CHD). While left‐sided lesions such as bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and coarctation of the aorta are the most common structural heart lesions in TS, other anomalies, such as aortic arch malformations, hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), persistent left superior vena
