Associations Between Atrial Cardiopathy and Cerebral Amyloid: The ARIC‐PET Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a risk factor for cognitive decline, possibly from silent brain infarction. Left atrial changes in structure or function (atrial cardiopathy) can lead to AF but may impact cognition independently.
