Aims Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension (PH) are increasingly
recognized in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The prevalence and …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) affects more than 33 million individuals worldwide and has a complex
heritability. We conducted the largest meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies …

Background: Important improvements have been made in treatment of diseases associated
with atrial fibrillation (AF), such as hypertension, myocardial infarction, and heart failure …

Atrial fibrillation affects more than 33 million people worldwide and increases the risk of
stroke, heart failure, and death,. Fourteen genetic loci have been associated with atrial …

Aims Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a progressive disease. Targeted therapy of underlying
conditions refers to interventions aiming to modify risk factors in order to prevent AF. We …

Aims The combination of oral anticoagulation with a P2Y12 inhibitor and aspirin in patients
with atrial fibrillation (AF) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is …

Background: Observational studies have identified an association between body mass index
(BMI) and incident atrial fibrillation (AF). Inferring causality from observational studies …

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) has a substantial genetic basis. Identification of
individuals at greatest AF risk could minimize the incidence of cardioembolic stroke …

Importance Increased free thyroxine (FT 4) and decreased thyrotropin are associated with
increased risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) in observational studies, but direct involvement is …

Parameters using myocardial strain analysis may predict response to cardiac
resynchronization therapy (CRT). As the agreement between currently available strain …
