Efficacy and Safety of Bepridil for Patients with Persistent Atrial Fibrillation after Failed Electrical Cardioversion

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, 2011
Introduction: Bepridil is effective for atrial fibrillation (AF), but it can induce torsades de pointes. Thus we examined the efficacy and safety of bepridil when started at 100 mg/day for AF after failed electrical cardioversion (EC).

Catheter Ablation to Maintain Sinus Rhythm [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2012
Over the past 12 years, catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) has emerged from being a novel, largely unproven procedure to its role today as a very commonly performed procedure for treatment of patients with symptomatic AF.1–4 In fact, catheter ablation of AF has become one of the most commonly performed catheter ablation procedures at most ...

Comparison of the Relationship Between Inflammatory Markers and Atrial Fibrillation Burden

open access: yesAnatolian Journal of Cardiology, 2023
Background: Atrial fibrillation is a complex disease with irregular ventricular response and tachycardia as a result of irregular and rapid contraction of the atria, with poor cardiovascular outcomes unless treated. Various mechanisms are involved in its

Maintenance of sinus rhythm after atrial defibrillation. [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 1970
The long-term results of 356 episodes of atrial defibrillation by DC shock carried out in 250 patients are reviewed. In 78 per cent of the cases, atrial fibrillation recurred by the end of 12 months in spite of the administration of quinidine or procainamide or propranolol, singly or combined.

A Novel Protein NAB1‐356 Encoded by circRNA circNAB1 Mitigates Atrial Fibrillation by Reducing Inflammation and Fibrosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The circRNA circNAB1 is downregulated in AF patient. Silencing circNAB1 promotes collagen deposition and inflammation, whereas overexpression reduces AF susceptibility. circNAB1 encodes the protein NAB1 356 that interacts with EGR1 to mitigate fibrosis and inflammation.

Transient unexpected improvement of AV conduction: What is the mechanism? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
This ECG was recorded from a 93 year old patient with a previously documented third degree AV block and an underlying LBBB. The twelve lead ECG demonstrates sinus bradycardia at a rate of 52 beats per minute, a PR interval of 230 milliseconds, and a ...

Altered excitation-contraction coupling in human chronic atrial fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This review focuses on the (mal)adaptive processes in atrial excitation-contraction coupling occurring in patients with chronic atrial fibrillation. Cellular remodeling includes shortening of the atrial action potential duration and effective refractory ...
