An analysis of the biomolecule substudy of the EAST–AFNET 4 trial has revealed that biomolecule concentrations in the blood of patients with atrial fibrillation can be used to identify patients at high and low cardiovascular risk. The findings were published in Cardiovascular Research.

Background We evaluated the potential of circulating bone morphogenetic protein 10 (BMP10) as a biomarker for atrial stress and remodelling in patients with heart failure (HF), in comparison to N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP). We also assessed the predictive value of BMP10 for adverse clinical outcomes.

Circulation. Outcomes of ablation with the FARAPULSE PFA System – a nonthermal treatment in which electric fields selectively ablate heart tissue – will be compared to outcomes following use of anti-arrhythmic drug (AAD) therapy, which is commonly prescribed for patients living with persistent AF.

When atrial fibrillation (AF) begins, it can start with a single focus, degenerating to multiple wavelets, and it spreads throughout the entire surface area of both atria. A fibrillatory wave that occurs at a rate of more than 600 beats per minute can cause fatigue in the long run, leading to atrial dilation.

The increasing prevalence of atrial fibrillation (AF) in adults with congenital heart disease raises significant questions regarding its management. Journal of the American Heart Association, Ahead of Print. Finally, any remaining gaps in knowledge and potential areas of future research are highlighted.

Circulation, Ahead of Print. Recommendations from the “2014 AHA/ACC/HRS Guideline for the Management of Patients With Atrial Fibrillation” and the “2019 AHA/ACC/HRS Focused Update of the 2014 AHA/ACC/HRS Guideline for the Management of Patients With Atrial Fibrillation” have been updated with new evidence to guide clinicians.

Background Covert atrial fibrillation (AF) is a predominant aetiology of embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS). Conclusion Our study showed that posterior circulation infarcts with brainstem/cerebellum involvement are associated with AF detection in ESUS patients undergoing ILR.
