    Predictors of atrial fibrillation after embolic stroke of undetermined source in patients with implantable loop recorders

    In 20–40% of ischemic strokes, the aetiology initially remains unexplained [ 1 ]. Subclinical atrial fibrillation (AF) is often suspected as the underlying cause in patients with an embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS). Current guidelines …

    Targeted screening of atrial fibrillation using automated blood pressure measurement device with atrial fibrillation detection function, in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in primary care setting

    Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common sustained arrhythmia, has become a global epidemic as a consequence of the ageing population and increased survival of chronic diseases [ 1 ]. The prevalence of AF in Hong Kong was 1.8% according to a …

    Genetically predicted dietary macronutrient intakes and atrial fibrillation risk: a Mendelian randomization study

    Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common arrhythmia typically caused by electrical abnormalities within the heart, leading to irregular contractions of the upper chambers (atria) and impaired pumping function [ 1 ]. AF affects approximately 33 million …

    Redefining cardiac care: the promising horizon of epicardial pulse field ablation for postoperative atrial fibrillation

    We know from knowledge of anatomy that the cardiac GP is located in three main areas: the retroatrial GP, the annular ventricular GP in the oblique sinus, and the peri-great vessel GP in the transverse sinus [ 5 , 6 ]. Musikantow et al. describe …

    Safety and outcomes of surgical treatment of atrial fibrillation in emergency surgery cases

    Since the Cox-maze procedure was introduced in 1984, the surgical treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF) has been modified and/or minimized according to the AF mechanism and combined surgery for the associated heart disease [ 1 – 3 ]. The …

    Incremental value of diastolic wall strain in predicting heart failure events in patients with atrial fibrillation

    Diastolic wall strain (DWS), an echocardiographic index based on linear elasticity theory, has been identified as a predictor of heart failure (HF) in patients with sinus rhythm. However, its effectiveness in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients …
