Role of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease in atrial fibrillation and heart failure: molecular and clinical aspects

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

In addition to direct hepatic complications, extra-hepatic complications, including cardiovascular diseases (CVD), type 2 diabetes (T2D), gastroesophageal reflux disease, chronic kidney disease and some malignancies, are increasingly recognized.

Rate vs Rhythm Control in Atrial Fibrillation

All About Cardiovascular System and Disorders

Rate vs Rhythm Control in Atrial Fibrillation Rate vs rhythm control as a management strategy in atrial fibrillation has been a long standing topic for debate. EAST-AFNET 4 trial had 2789 patients with early atrial fibrillation and cardiovascular conditions [8]. years of follow up per patient.

Incident cardiovascular, renal, metabolic diseases and death in individuals identified for risk-guided atrial fibrillation screening: a nationwide cohort study

Open Heart

Objective Risk-guided atrial fibrillation (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;

The impact of early cryoballoon ablation on clinical outcome in patients with atrial fibrillation: From the Korean cryoballoon ablation registry

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology

Abstract Introduction Influence of early atrial fibrillation (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).

Abstract 49: Genomic Profiling and Risk of Intracerebral Hemorrhage in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation on Apixaban

Stroke Journal

Introduction:Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is the most severe adverse effect of anticoagulation in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients. Hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and chronic kidney disease are well-known cardiovascular risk factors for ICH.
