Atrial fibrillation.

open access: yesNature Reviews Disease Primers, 2022
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia despite substantial efforts to understand the pathophysiology of the condition and develop improved treatments. Identifying the underlying causative mechanisms of AF in individual patients is difficult and the efficacy of current therapies is suboptimal. Consequently, the incidence of AF is

Is This Atrial Fibrillation? [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, 2009
A 19‐year‐old girl was referred to our cardiology department for catheter ablation (isolation of the pulmonary veins) of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF). The diagnosis was made upon a 12‐lead ECG of the arrhythmia documented in the emergency room. The ECG showed an irregular tachycardia without wide QRS complexes.

Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 Protects Against Atrial Remodeling via Reducing Oxidative Stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
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 ...

Fibrillation of transferrin [PDF]

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 2012
The nature of fibrillar deposits from aqueous solutions of human serum and recombinant human transferrin on mica and carbon-coated formvar surfaces has been investigated.Atomic force microscopy showed that the deposition of recombinant transferrin onto the hydrophilic surface of mica resulted in the formation of a monolayer-thick film composed of ...

Prognostications of Fibrillations [PDF]

open access: yesStroke, 2015
See related article, p 1210. Post-hospital evaluation for the cause of ischemic stroke has gained increased attention in the last decade, particularly the search for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Initial studies of Holter monitoring documented rates of atrial fibrillation of ≈5% or 1 in 20 patients.1 Further, prolonged monitoring for as long as 1 ...

Obstructive sleep apnea and atrial fibrillation: insights from a bidirectional Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesBMC Medical Genomics, 2022
Background Observational studies have suggested that obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is in relation to atrial fibrillation (AF); however, these studies might be confounded and whether the relationship is causal remains unclear. We conducted a bidirectional

Cardiovascular Hospitalizations and Resource Use Following Atrial Fibrillation Ablation

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
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.
