The central mediators of atrial fibrillation include inflammation and oxidative stress, which can exacerbate cardiac remodeling and promote the occurrence of atrial fibrillation. After the heart is ...

Background: Post-operative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is a common and serious complication following cardiac surgery, leading to increased morbidity and healthcare costs. Inflammation, particularly ...

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a prevalent cardiac arrhythmia characterized by irregular and frequently rapid electrical activity in the atria. Adipokines are bioactive molecules that are secreted by ...

From the Department of Medicine and Research Center, Montreal Heart Institute and Université de Montréal, Montreal, Quebec, Canada (M.S., A.S.-T., A.M., C.D., A.N ...

Recurrence after atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation remains common. We evaluated the association between recurrence and levels of biomarkers of cardiac remodeling, and their ability to improve ...

• Exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation likely improves symptoms and quality of life and may improve exercise capacity (the maximum amount of physical effort a person can tolerate) in adults with ...

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most frequent sustained cardiac arrhythmia. AF is shown to be a progressive disease, which is strongly associated with important structural (morphological and ...

A multidisciplinary study led by scientists at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares (CNIC) presents a new method for assessing the structural and electrophysiological changes ...

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a highly prevalent condition that can cause or exacerbate heart failure, is an important risk factor for stroke, and is associated with pronounced morbidity and ...

Left atrial structural remodeling contributes to the arrhythmogenic substrate of atrial fibrillation (AF), but the role of the right atrium (RA) remains unknown. Our aims were to comprehensively ...
