Atrial fibrillation (AF) is increasingly common among Australia's ageing population and carries significant morbidity and mortality. Its detection through screening, cardiac device interrogation and/or symptoms of AF brings with it a number of significant clinical issues.The aim of this article is to outline a systematic approach to the management of ...

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac rhythm disorder, and increases in prevalence with increasing age and the number of cardiovascular comorbidities. AF is characterized by a rapid and irregular heartbeat that can be asymptomatic or lead to symptoms such as palpitations, dyspnoea and dizziness.

Cardiovascular Hospitalizations and Resource Use Following Atrial Fibrillation Ablation
Background Over the next few years, atrial fibrillation (AF)–related morbidity and costs will increase significantly. Thus, it is prudent to examine the impact of AF treatment on health care resource use.

Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 Protects Against Atrial Remodeling via Reducing Oxidative Stress
Aim: The structural and electrical changes in the atrium, also known as atrial remodeling, are the main characteristics of atrial fibrillation (AF). Fibroblast growth factor 21 (Fgf21) is an important endocrine factor, which has been shown to play an ...

Ibandronate promotes autophagy by inhibiting Rac1–mTOR signaling pathway in vitro and in vivo
We previously reported that ibandronate (IBAN) could improve endothelial function in spontaneously hypertensive rats. However, the mechanism by which IBAN improves endothelial function is unclear.

Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation in patients with diabetes mellitus
Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an independent risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF). Few studies have compared clinical outcomes after catheter ablation between patients with and those without DM.

Effectiveness of catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation according to heart failure etiology
Background Catheter ablation is an important rhythm control therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) with concomitant heart failure (HF). The objective of this study was to assess the comparative efficacy of AF ablation patients with ischemic vs
