Atrial electromechanical function [PDF]
Europace, 2011 longitudinal with the mitral annulus moving back towards the rear of the atrium after the P-wave and during the PR interval and returning to its resting position at the time of the first heart sound, marking end-diastole. It is worth mentioning that not only does this pattern of function mirror that of the left ventricle, although in the opposite ...

ESC Heart Failure, 2020 Exercise intolerance is the leading manifestation of heart failure with preserved or mid‐range ejection fraction (HFpEF or HFmrEF), and left atrial (LA) function might contribute to modulating left ventricular filling and pulmonary venous pressures.

Atrial remodelling and function: implications for atrial fibrillation surgery [PDF]
European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2018 The exact mechanism of atrial fibrillation (AF) is still incompletely understood. A number of alterations that impact focal electrical discharge, the atrial substrate and modulating factors contribute to its pathogenesis. Atrial remodelling (resulting in atrial cardiomyopathy) sets the stage for AF development.

Presence of atrial natriuretic factor prohormone in enterochromaffin cells of the human large intestine [PDF]
, 1991 Atrial natriuretic factor is a hormone intimately involved in water and salt homeostasis. The heart constitutes the major but not exclusive site of synthesis of this hormone.

Atrial Cardiomyopathy: An Emerging Cause of the Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021 Nearly 30% of ischemic strokes have an unknown cause, which are referred to as cryptogenic strokes (CS). Imaging studies suggest that a large proportion of these patients show features that are consistent with embolism, and thus the term embolic stroke ...

Altered density of glomerular binding sites for atrial natriuretic factor in bile duct-ligated rats with ascites [PDF]
, 1991 The renal response to atrial natriuretic factor is blunted in cirrhosis with ascites. This might be due to alterations of renal receptors for atrial natriuretic factor.
