Rate Control Management of Atrial Fibrillation: May a Mathematical Model Suggest an Ideal Heart Rate? [PDF]
Background. Despite the routine prescription of rate control therapy for atrial fibrillation (AF), clinical evidence demonstrating a heart rate target is lacking.

Quiescent Elongation of α-Synuclein Pre-form Fibrils Under Different Solution Conditions
The intracellular aggregation of α-synuclein in neurons/glia is considered to be a key step in the pathogenesis of synucleinopathy [including Parkinson’s disease (PD), dementia with Lewy body (DLB), multiple system atrophy (MSA), etc.].

Older Adults at Risk for Atrial Fibrillation Lack Knowledge and Confidence to Seek Treatment for Signs and Symptoms. [PDF]
Early detection of atrial fibrillation (AF) is crucial for averting AF-related stroke and heart failure, but treatment is delayed when AF is not recognized.

Atrial Fibrillation Degenerates Into Ventricular Fibrillation
![Figure][1] A 43-year-old man with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) and an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) placed for documented ventricular fibrillation (VF), presented with an ICD shock. Ventricular pre-excitation was not present.

ABC of Atrial Fibrillation: DRUGS FOR ATRIAL FIBRILLATION [PDF]
One of the most important principles of using antiarrhythmic drugs for controlling any arrhythmia is to treat only patients who are symptomatic, have malignant arrhythmias (such as ventricular fibrillation), or are haemodynamically compromised (for example, with hypotension or heart failure).

Alcohol and Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]
Dietary habits, including alcohol consumption, are among the significant risk factors for the occurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF). The pathophysiological relationship between alcohol consumption and AF is complex and multifactorial. However, there is conflicting information about the impact of alcohol consumption (in various doses and types) on the ...

Genetics of Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]
Recent studies of atrial fibrillation (AF) have identified mutations in a series of ion mutations; however, these channels appear to be relatively rare causes of AF. Recent genome-wide association studies for AF have identified novel variants associated with the disease, although the mechanism of action for these variants remains unknown. Ultimately, a
