Objective To identify factors that independently predict the risk of rehospitalisation and death after acute heart failure (AHF) hospital discharge in a real-world setting, considering death without rehospitalisation as a competing event.

The burden of neurologic diseases, including stroke and dementia, is expected to grow substantially in the coming decades. This scientific statement discusses the pathogenic mechanisms that link 3 prevalent cardiac diseases of adults (heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and coronary heart disease) to cognitive impairment.

Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is currently defined as symptomatic by asking patients if they are aware of when they are in AF and if they feel better in sinus rhythm. Labeling these patients as asymptomatic falsely suggests that their AF requires less intense therapy and puts into question the notion of truly asymptomatic AF.

ABSTRACTAtrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia. AF increases the risk of stroke, heart failure, dementia, and hospitalization. Obesity significantly increases AF risk, both directly and indirectly, through related conditions, like hypertension, diabetes, and heart failure.

Cardiovascular disease, cancer and dementia account for 60% of all deaths in the US. For those in the ‘Ideal’ category, they were 51% less likely to have either dementia or depression. And less diabetes means less of a driver of the three main leading causes of death - cardiovascular disease, cancer and dementia.

Background:Catheter ablation (CA) is increasingly used for treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF). Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HR) for the composite and individual endpoints from CABANA trial (death, stroke, major bleeding or cardiac arrest) and CASTLE-AF trial (death or heart failure).
