Short runs of atrial arrhythmia and stroke risk: a European-wide online survey among stroke physicians and cardiologists [PDF]

, 2016
Methods: An online survey of cardiologists and stroke physicians was carried out to assess current management of patients with short runs of atrial arrhythmia within Europe. Results: Respondents included 311 clinicians from 32 countries.

Novel concepts in atrial fibrillation ablation—breaking the trade‐off between efficacy and safety

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2021
Despite substantial technological and procedural advances that have improved the efficacy and safety of AF ablation in recent years, the long‐term durability of ablation lesions is still not satisfactory.

Atrial fibrillation and microRNAs [PDF]

Frontiers in Physiology, 2014
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia, especially in the elderly, and has a significant genetic component. Recently, several independent investigators have demonstrated a functional role for small non-coding RNAs (microRNAs) in the pathophysiology of this cardiac arrhythmia.

Inflammatory signalling in atrial cardiomyocytes: a novel unifying principle in atrial fibrillation pathophysiology

Nature Reviews Cardiology, 2022
Inflammation has been implicated in atrial fibrillation (AF), a very common and clinically significant cardiac rhythm disturbance, but its precise role remains poorly understood.

Extinction Dynamics of Cardiac Fibrillation [PDF]

, 2018
During episodes of atrial fibrillation, the heart's electrical activity becomes disorganized and shows fragmenting spiral waves. To systematically address how this pattern terminates using spatially extended simulations exceeds current computational ...

Development of an international standard set of outcome measures for patients with atrial fibrillation: a report of the International Consortium for Health Outcomes Measurement (ICHOM) atrial fibrillation working group. [PDF]

, 2020
AIMS: As health systems around the world increasingly look to measure and improve the value of care that they provide to patients, being able to measure the outcomes that matter most to patients is vital.

Spontaneous initiation of atrial fibrillation by ectopic beats originating in the pulmonary veins.

New England Journal of Medicine, 1998
BACKGROUND Atrial fibrillation, the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia and a major cause of stroke, results from simultaneous reentrant wavelets. Its spontaneous initiation has not been studied.

Genetic mutations in African patients with atrial fibrillation: Rationale and design of the Study of Genetics of Atrial Fibrillation in an African Population (SIGNAL) [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: There is an urgent need to understand genetic associations with atrial fibrillation in ethnically diverse populations. There are no such data from sub-Saharan Africa, despite the fact that atrial fibrillation is one of the fastest growing ...

Right versus left atrial pacing in patients with sick sinus syndrome and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (Riverleft study) [PDF]

, 2014
_Background:_ The incidence of sick sinus syndrome will increase due to population ageing. Consequently, this will result in an increase in the number of pacemaker implantations.
