Cardioversion of atrial fibrillation does not affect obstructive sleep apnea

Upsala Journal of Medical Sciences, 2017
Background: Sleep apnea is common in patients with atrial fibrillation, but the effect of the cardioversion of atrial fibrillation to sinus rhythm on central and obstructive apneas is mainly unknown.

Discrimination of Paroxysmal and Persistent Atrial Fibrillation in Patients With New-Onset Atrial Fibrillation

International Heart Journal, 2016
Discrimination between paroxysmal and persistent atrial fibrillation (PAF and persistent AF) is important for determining the therapeutic strategy in patients with new-onset AF. We evaluated various clinical factors and P wave morphology to discriminate PAF and persistent AF patients in patients with new-onset AF.The study population consisted of 79 ...

Discharge Remote Monitoring Systems for Glycemic Management After Hospital Discharge

Chronic Diseases and Translational Medicine, EarlyView.
Heat map of median number of telehealth interactions by subgroup and theme. Major themes identified included intervention after remote monitoring alerts (e.g., “Team reached out to participant and instructed participant to treat hypo.”), insulin dose adjustments (e.g., “Participant reported that prednisone dose is increasing … Called to discuss insulin

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1059-1080, April 2025.
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

Forecasting heart failure: Seasonal alignment of heart failure outcomes in New York

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 819-831, April 2025.
Abstract Background Seasonal variations have been observed in heart failure (HF) hospitalization. Numerous explanatory mechanisms have been proposed, but no prior studies have examined potential contributors directly. Our objective was to identify specific factors that could contribute to seasonal variability using a large longitudinal dataset of HF ...

Catheter Ablation or Surgical Therapy in Severe Atrial Functional Mitral Regurgitation Caused by Long‐Standing Persistent Atrial Fibrillation—Propensity Score Analysis

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background There is no consensus on the treatment strategy for patients with severe atrial functional mitral regurgitation combined with heart failure (HF), with a lack of comparative studies in patients with long‐standing persistent atrial fibrillation ...

Incident heart failure: comparing management and outcome in primary and hospital settings in Western Sweden 2008–2017

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 832-838, April 2025.
Abstract Aim Heart failure (HF) is a highly prevalent condition managed in both primary care (PC) and hospital care (HC)‐based settings. HF patients managed in these two settings may differ in their demography, comorbidities and outcomes, so we aimed to compare the patient management in PC and HC in the Västra Götaland Region (VGR) in Sweden.

Frequency Analysis of Atrial Fibrillation From the Surface Electrocardiogram [PDF]

, 2004
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice. Neither the natural history of AF nor its response to therapy are sufficiently predictable by clinical and echocardiographic parameters.

Staged hybrid ablation for persistent and longstanding persistent atrial fibrillation effectively restores sinus rhythm in long-term observation

, 2016
Introduction: Hybrid ablation (HABL) of atrial fibrillation combining endoscopic, minimally invasive, closed chest epicardial ablation with endocardial CARTO-guided accuracy was introduced to overcome the limitations of current therapeutic options for ...
