Aug 11th, 2020 - Atrial fibrillation (AF) is common in end-stage renal disease patients. Besides the traditional risk factors, we aimed to find dialysis-specific factors for developing incident AF. From March 2017 to August 2018, we retrospectively reviewed all ou...

Aug 11th, 2020 - Nerve growth factor (NGF) and tropomyosin kinase receptors A (TrKA) exert a crucial effect on the regulation of autonomic nervous system which contributes to the progress of atrial fibrillation (AF). Valvular heart disease (VHD) patients are more ...

Aug 11th, 2020 - Little is known about cardiac structure and function among atrial fibrillation (AF) subtypes; paroxysmal AF vs. persistent AF (PxAF), and across AF burden. We sought to assess differences in left atrial (LA) measures by AF subtype and burden. This...

Aug 10th, 2020 - Impaired mitochondrial function concomitant to enhanced oxidative stress-induced damage are well established mechanisms involved in hyperlipidemia-induced cardiotoxicity. Currently, limited information is available on the direct effect of myocardi...

Aug 10th, 2020 - The impact of antithrombotic therapy on coagulation system activation after left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) remains unknown. This study sought to compare changes in coagulation markers associated with short-term oral anticoagulation (OAC) ver...

Feb 25th, 2020 - Epidemiological and biological plausibility studies support a cause-and-effect relationship between increased levels of physical activity or cardiorespiratory fitness and reduced coronary heart disease events. These data, plus the well-documented ...

Feb 4th, 2020 - There is an increasing consumption of energy drinks both in the United States and worldwide. The components of these beverages are sometimes unclear but commonly include caffeine, sugars, taurine, and B-vitamins. Young people, particularly those e...

Dec 3rd, 2019 - Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is the most common type of cardiac arrhythmia, affecting 2.7 million to 6.1 million persons in the United States. Although some persons with AFib have no symptoms, others do. For those without symptoms, AFib may be detec...

Dec 2nd, 2019 - This study aimed to explore the feasibility of photoplethysmography-based smart devices for the detection of atrial fibrillation in real-world settings.

Aug 11th, 2020 - Atrial fibrillation (AF) is common in end-stage renal disease patients. Besides the traditional risk factors, we aimed to find dialysis-specific factors for developing incident AF. From March 2017 to August 2018, we retrospectively reviewed all ou...

May 6th, 2020 - (Reuters) - Fitbit Inc on Wednesday launched a virtual study to test if its wearable devices can detect irregular heart rhythms or atrial fibrillation. The hardware to detect irregular beats is present in FitBit’s devices, but is not available to ...

Mar 19th, 2020 - PHOENIX, ARIZ. – Cardiovascular deaths and death rates related to atrial fibrillation have risen since 1999, with significant acceleration following 2009, results from a cross-sectional analysis of national data show.

Mar 18th, 2020 - SBP and cardiovascular outcomes in HFpEF In the new analysis, Dr. Solomon and coworkers examined outcomes based on baseline and mean achieved SBP quartiles regardless of treatment arm.

Mar 7th, 2020 - LOS ANGELES – The edge that the direct-acting oral anticoagulant apixaban (Eliquis) has over warfarin for safely preventing ischemic events in patients with atrial fibrillation and either a recent acute coronary syndrome event or a recent percutan.

Mar 5th, 2020 - (Reuters Health) - - People with a common heart rhythm problem who are physically active may live longer than more sedentary counterparts, a recent study suggests. Among 1,100 adults with atrial fibrillation, or Afib, those who got regular exercis...
