The researchers sought to better understand the prognostic role of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I among patients with newly detected atrial fibrillation. Here is what they found.
Because previous research suggests an association between autonomic nervous system function and atrial fibrillation development, researchers further assessed the potential link among MESA participants. ...
Researchers investigated whether modest weight loss can improve outcomes in patients with overweight or obesity and established atrial fibrillation. The results of their literature review further highlight...
It is known that anger and stress can trigger episodes of atrial fibrillation in those with a history of AF. Authors of a new study sought to determine whether the triggering effect of these mood states...
