Duration of heart failure and the risk of atrial fibrillation: different mechanisms at different times? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Chronic heart failure increases the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF), with the prevalence of AF paralleling the severity of heart failure.1 Factors that underlie this increased susceptibility to AF may include electrical, structural, and neurohumoral ...

Systematic Analysis of Gene Expression Differences between Left and Right Atria in Different Mouse Strains and in Human Atrial Tissue [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Normal development of the atria requires left-right differentiation during embryonic development. Reduced expression of Pitx2c (paired-like homeodomain transcription factor 2, isoform c), a key regulator of left-right asymmetry, has recently ...

Explainable Machine Learning to Predict Anchored Reentry Substrate Created by Persistent Atrial Fibrillation Ablation in Computational Models

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Background Postablation arrhythmia recurrence occurs in ~40% of patients with persistent atrial fibrillation. Fibrotic remodeling exacerbates arrhythmic activity in persistent atrial fibrillation and can play a key role in reentrant arrhythmia, but ...

Investigation of the predictors of transition to persistent atrial fibrillation in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, 2002
AbstractBackground: Until now, no clinically useful indicators have existed that predict the transition from paroxysmal to persistent atrial fibrillation (AF).Hypothesis: The current prospective study was conducted for identifying predictors of progression to persistent AF over the long term.Methods: We studied 102 consecutive patients (mean age: 55 ...
