Rate vs Rhythm Control in AtrialFibrillation Rate vs rhythm control as a management strategy in atrialfibrillation has been a long standing topic for debate. EAST-AFNET 4 trial had 2789 patients with early atrialfibrillation and cardiovascular conditions [8]. years of follow up per patient.
Objective Risk-guided atrialfibrillation (AF) screening may be an opportunity to prevent adverse events in addition to stroke. We compared events rates for new diagnoses of cardio-renal-metabolic diseases and death in individuals identified at higher versus lower-predicted AF risk. to 13.01; 4.06), diabetes mellitus (123.3;
Abstract Introduction Influence of early atrialfibrillation (AF) ablation, particularly cryoballoon ablation (CBA), on clinical outcome during long-term follow-up has not been clarified. The primary outcome was recurrence of atrial tachyarrhythmias (ATs) of ≥30-s after a 3-month blanking period. vs. 31.7%, p = 0.043).
Introduction:Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is the most severe adverse effect of anticoagulation in atrialfibrillation (AF) patients. Hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and chronic kidneydisease are well-known cardiovascular risk factors for ICH.

Propensity score-matched analysis (PSM) (1:1) was performed with matching for age, gender, race, BMI, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidneydisease, hemoglobin level, low-density lipid (LDL) level, left ventricular ejection fraction, and various drugs including ACEi, ARBi, ARNI, beta-blockers, and diuretics.
17.4]) and was also more likely to have diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, chronic lung disease, chronic kidneydisease, chronic liver disease, BMI ≥ 25, anemia, metastatic cancer, and atrialfibrillation. The hemophilia cohort was slightly older (63.2[16.8]
The prevalence of HF risk factors was high: hypertension, 61.9%; former or current smoking, 53.7%; obesity 34.8%; diabetes; 24.7%; and chronic kidneydisease; 22%. Overt cardiovascular disease, which ranged from 2.1% (HF) to 13.6% (atrialfibrillation), was less common.
Logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between the treatment groups and hospital readmission within 90 days.Results:Only 517 AA met inclusion criteria and did not meet exclusion criteria, which included a history of valvular heart disease, hypertrophic or restrictive cardiomyopathy, active myocarditis, history of cardiac arrest, and (..)
Measuring eGFR and albuminuria is recommended for assessing kidneydisease in all hypertensive patients. Below are some of the most notable highlights: 2024 ESC Updated Clinical Guidelines: Key updates include clopidogrel as a first-line option for long-term use after MI or PCI.
Background Chronic kidneydisease (CKD) and atrialfibrillation (AF) are increasing in prevalence globally and share common risk factors. Age, sex, diabetes, hypertension and heart failure were chosen as variables of interest. Methods PubMed, EMBASE and CINAHL were searched from inception to June 2022.
Aims To describe the use of warfarin and direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in patients with atrialfibrillation (AF) and chronic kidneydisease (CKD), to evaluate changes in renal function over time and predictors of rapid decline, and to describe time in therapeutic range (TTR) and predictors of poor TTR among patients on warfarin.
Objectives Accurate prediction of heart failure (HF) patients at high risk of atrialfibrillation (AF) represents a potentially valuable tool to inform shared decision making. No validated prediction model for AF in HF is currently available. The objective was to develop clinical prediction models for 1-year risk of AF.
It is highly recommended to screen for liver fibrosis in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and elevated liver enzymes using the fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) score.However, this recommendation does not extend to patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) who do not have T2DM. 1.45), cardiovascular mortality (HR: 1.80, 95% CI: 1.49-2.17),
In multivariate regression analysis, the factors independently associated with a greater risk of readmission within 90 days were hypercoagulation (1.359 [95%CI, 1.1274‐1.45]), opiod abuse and dependence (1.353 [95%CI, 1.238‐1.478]), chronic kidneydisease (1.347 [95%CI, 1.316‐1.379]), liver disease (1.318 [95% CI, 1.26‐1.378]),
Characteristics associated with intracranial stent utilization were male sex, history of diabetes, hypertension, or chronic kidneydisease, absence of atrialfibrillation or CHF, and southern US region. women; mean age, 69.1 [SD, years; mean NIHSS score of 15.1 [SD, years; mean NIHSS score of 13.8 [SD,
