New-onset Atrial Fibrillation is Associated With Polycystic Kidney Disease
Cardiovascular complications remain the major problems contributing to morbidity and mortality in patients with polycystic kidney disease (PKD). Therefore, the authors hypothesized that atrial fibrillation (AF) is closely associated with PKD. The authors conducted a nationwide population-based cohort study to investigate the risk of AF in patients with PKD. Using data from inpatient claims, the...
متن کاملCompeting autonomic mechanisms precede the onset of postoperative atrial fibrillation.
OBJECTIVES This study was designed to evaluate autonomic changes preceding atrial fibrillation/flutter (AF) after thoracotomy. BACKGROUND Autonomic fluctuations before the onset of postoperative AF have been reported but with conflicting results. METHODS In 48 patients with postoperative AF, 2-h Holter recordings before the onset of AF were compared with corresponding data from 48 age- and ...
متن کاملP-pulmonale and new-onset atrial fibrillation.
trial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia encountered in daily clinical practice and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality.1 Although the prevalence of AF in Japan is estimated to be approximately two-thirds that in the USA, it is increasing,2 and anticoagulant therapy is mandatory to avoid ischemic stroke and systemic embolization.3 Furthermore, to prevent AF, improved kn...
متن کاملPostoperative Atrial Fibrillation
Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is common among surgical patients and associated with a worse outcome. Pathophysiology of POAF is not fully disclosed, and several perioperative factors could be involved. Direct cardiac stimulation from perioperative use of catecholamines or increased sympathetic outflow from volume loss/anaemia/pain may play a role. Metabolic alterations, such as hypo-...
متن کاملThe -174G/C interleukin-6 polymorphism influences postoperative interleukin-6 levels and postoperative atrial fibrillation. Is atrial fibrillation an inflammatory complication?
BACKGROUND It has been suggested that inflammation can have a role in the development of atrial arrhythmias after cardiac surgery and that a genetic predisposition to develop postoperative complications exists. This study was conceived to verify if a potential genetic modulator of the systemic inflammatory reaction to cardiopulmonary bypass (the -174 G/C polymorphism of the promoter of the Inte...
