Atrial Fibrillation Atrial Fibrillation Current Knowledge and Future Directions in Epidemiology and Genomics
A trial fibrillation (AF) is of public health importance and profoundly increases morbidity, mortality, and health-related expenditures. Morbidities include the increased risks of cardiovascular outcomes such as heart failure and stroke and the deleterious effects on quality of life (QOL), functional status, and cognition. The clinical epidemiology of AF, its risk factors, and its outcomes have...
متن کاملEditorial Genomics of Atrial Fibrillation and Heart Failure
Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common types of arrhythmia in the clinic, is an increasing health burden in developing and develped countries as well. The prevalence of AF increases with age, increasing from 1% in youth to nearly 10% in those age over 80. In the United States (US), 3 million people are affected by AF and in China, 10 million AF patients exists. Interestingly, heart failure (...
متن کاملIntravenous Methylprednisolone, a Possible Cause of the Atrial Fibrillation
We are presenting a case illustrating atrial fibrillation (AF) following the use of methylprednisolone in a patient with pelvic and femur fracture. A 48- year- old man with no significant past medical history, was admitted to the emergency department after injury in a car accident. He suffered a multiple bone fracture with chief complaints of pain and shortness of breath. He was transfer...
متن کاملsurgical treatment of atrial fibrillation
atrial fibrillation is the most prevalent permanent arrhythmia. it may be associated with other cardiac pathologies which need surgical treatment. various types of surgery including the traditional cut-sew operations and operations using different energy sources are currently in use. in comparison with medical treatment, surgery is safe, effective, and has reliable results.
متن کاملProtective effects of simvastatin on atrioventricular node during simulated experimental atrial fibrillation in vitro
Introduction: Recent evidence has indicated that statins can reduce the incidence of both supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias with various mechanisms. The primary goal of the present study was to determine direct protective role of simvastatin in modifying concealed conduction and the zone of concealment in a simulated model of atrial fibrillation (AF) in an isolated atrioventricula...
