Impact of atrial fibrillation on the risk of death: the Framingham Heart Study.
BACKGROUND Atrial fibrillation (AF) causes substantial morbidity. It is uncertain whether AF is associated with excess mortality independent of associated cardiac conditions and risk factors. METHODS AND RESULTS We examined the mortality of subjects 55

Progression of Atrial Fibrillation after Cryoablation or Drug Therapy.
BACKGROUND Atrial fibrillation is a chronic, progressive disorder, and persistent forms of atrial fibrillation are associated with increased risks of thromboembolism and heart failure.

Polymorphism in alpha-synuclein oligomers and its implications in toxicity under disease conditions
The major hallmark of Parkinson’s disease (PD) is represented by the formation of pathological protein plaques largely consisting of α-synuclein (αSN) amyloid fibrils.

Dynamic fibrils in H-alpha and C IV [PDF]
Aim: To study the interaction of the solar chromosphere with the transition region, in particular active-region jets in the transition region and their relation to chromospheric fibrils. Methods: We carefully align image sequences taken simultaneously in C IV with the Transition Region and Coronal Explorer and in H-alpha with the Swedish 1-m Solar ...

Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the commonest cardiac arrhythmia in hospitalized patients, with an increasing incidence with age and an epidemic increase projected for the next 10 years. Therapy of AF has several goals: to decrease mortality (mainly due to cardiovascular diseases), stroke rate, ventricular deterioration, and heart ...

Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation in patients with diabetes mellitus
Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an independent risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF). Few studies have compared clinical outcomes after catheter ablation between patients with and those without DM.
