Mashup Score: 4Implantable Loop Recorder for Augmenting Detection of New Onset Atrial Fibrillation after Typical Atrial Flutter Ablation - 3 year(s) ago
Patients with typical atrial flutter (AFL) undergoing successful cavo-tricuspid isthmus (CTI) ablation remain at risk for future development of new onset atrial fibrillation (AF). Conventional monitoring (CM) techniques have shown AF incidence rates of 18-50% in these patients.

Mashup Score: 0Impact of Low-Level Electromagnetic Fields on the Inducibility of Atrial Fibrillation in the Electrophysiology Laboratory - 3 year(s) ago
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia in adults. Research suggests that autonomic nervous (ANS) system dysfunction contributes to AF pathophysiology. Animal studies have shown that low-level electromagnetic fields (LL-EMF) are potentially capable of AF suppression. This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of LL-EMF in suppressing AF in humans.

Mashup Score: 5Biomarkers of Inflammation and Risk of Hospitalization for Heart Failure in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation - 3 year(s) ago
Background Hospitalization for heart failure (HF) is very common in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). We hypothesized that biomarkers of inflammation can identify patients with AF at increase…

Mashup Score: 2Comparison of the effect of glucose-lowering agents on the risk of atrial fibrillation: A network meta-analysis - 3 year(s) ago
Diabetes is associated with the progression of atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter (AFL). However, whether glucose-lowering agents could reduce AF/AFL remains unclear. We hypothesized that different glucose-lowering agents exhibit different characteristic effects on the risk of AF/AFL.

Mashup Score: 0
Adults with osteoporosis prescribed zoledronic acid have an increased risk for atrial fibrillation when compared with denosumab, according to a study data. “While previous observational studies on this topic have struggled with confounding and yielded equivocal results, our study using an active comparator design, restriction to incident users eligible for both treatment strategies, and

Mashup Score: 0Atrial Fibrillation (Afib) - 4 year(s) ago
The different types of Afib include:Paroxysmal Afib is when the heart returns to a normal rhythm on its own, or with intervention, within 7 days of when the condition started. This Afib may last for seconds or up to a week before the heart returns to its normal rhythm. Symptoms, which can be mild or severe, are unpredictable and may occur a few times a year or every day. Paroxysmal Afib does not…
