Left Atrial Strain and the Risk of Atrial Arrhythmias From Extended Ambulatory Cardiac Monitoring: MESA

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2022
Background Abnormalities in left atrial (LA) function often occur before LA structural changes and clinically identified atrial fibrillation (AF). Little is known about the relationship between LA strain and the risk of subclinical atrial arrhythmias ...

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is associated with an increased incidence of atrial fibrillation in patients with type 2 diabetes

, 2013
BackgroundThe relationship between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and atrial fibrillation (AF) in type 2 diabetes is currently unknown. We examined the relationship between NAFLD and risk of incident AF in people with type 2 diabetes.Methods ...

Engineering a Bioelectronic Hybrid Heart with Integrated Sensing and Electrical Modulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A bioelectronic hybrid heart is engineered by integrating iPSC‐derived cardiomyocytes, a decellularized cardiac scaffold, a cell‐laden ECM coating, and a flexible electronic mesh. The embedded electrodes enable real‐time recording of spontaneous electrical activity and localized stimulation, allowing controlled pacing and modulation of activation ...

Validation of a Manual Method for Measuring Left Atrial Reservoir Strain Against Automated Speckle Tracking Analysis

Diagnostics
Background: Left atrial strain, particularly reservoir strain, has emerged as a sensitive marker of left atrial function and an early indicator of diastolic dysfunction and cardiovascular risk.

Implantable Systems for Cardiovascular Treatment and Monitoring: Comparative Insights From Intracardiovascular and Extracardiovascular Technologies

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A unifying device–cardiovascular interface framework is presented to classify implantable cardiovascular technologies as intracardiovascular blood‐contacting systems or extracardiovascular tissue‐only and blood‐handling architectures. Cross‐class comparison across shared semiquantitative criteria, including blood‐contact burden, biomimicry ...

Mechanisms of termination and prevention of atrial fibrillation by drug therapy [PDF]

, 2011
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a disorder of the rhythm of electrical activation of the cardiac atria. It is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, has multiple aetiologies, and increases the risk of death from stroke.

ADNP‐Related Helsmoortel–Van der Aa Syndrome: A Review of the Literature and Clinical Recommendations for Assessment and Monitoring

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT ADNP‐related Helsmoortel–Van der Aa syndrome (ADNP‐related HVDAS) is a single gene form of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) caused by pathogenic sequence variants in the activity‐dependent neuroprotective protein (ADNP) gene. In addition to ASD, ADNP‐related HVDAS is associated with a wide range of cognitive, behavioral, and physical health ...

Right atrial reverse remodeling and risk of atrial arrhythmias after surgical pulmonary valve replacement

International Journal of Cardiology Congenital Heart Disease
Background: Right atrial (RA) dysfunction and atrial arrhythmias are relatively common in adults with repaired tetralogy of Fallot. The purpose of this study was to determine whether RA function improved after surgical pulmonary valve replacement (PVR ...

Role of 2D speckle-tracking echocardiography in the assessment of left atrial function and its relation to the presence of left atrial appendage thrombus in patients with non-valvular paroxysmal atrial fibrillation

Al-Azhar Assiut Medical Journal, 2020
Introduction The study aimed to evaluate the role of speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE) in the assessment of left atrial (LA) function and its relation to the presence of left atrial appendage thrombus (LAAT) compared with the gold standard ...
