Cardiac Arrhythmogenic Remodeling in a Rat Model of Long-Term Intensive Exercise Training
Begoña Benito,Gemma Gay-Jordi,Anna Serrano-Mollar,Eduard Guasch,Yanfen Shi,Jean-Claude Tardif,Josep Brugada,Stanley Nattel,Lluís Mont +8 more
TL;DR: The notion that long-term vigorous endurance exercise training may in some cases promote adverse remodeling and produce a substrate for cardiac arrhythmias is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pre-procedural predictors of atrial fibrillation recurrence after circumferential pulmonary vein ablation
Antonio Berruezo,David Tamborero,Lluís Mont,Begoña Benito,José María Tolosana,Marta Sitges,Barbara Vidal,Germán Arriagada,Francisco Javier Méndez,Maria Matiello,Irma Molina,Josep Brugada +11 more
TL;DR: Hypertension and LAD are independent pre-procedural predictors of AF recurrence after CPVA to treat AF and may help in patient selection for AF ablation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gender Differences in Clinical Manifestations of Brugada Syndrome
Begoña Benito,Andrea Sarkozy,Lluís Mont,Stephan Henkens,Antonio Berruezo,David Tamborero,Dabit Arzamendi,Paola Berne,Ramon Brugada,Pedro Brugada,Josep Brugada +10 more
TL;DR: Men with Brugada syndrome present with a greater risk clinical profile than women and have a worse prognosis, and conduction disturbances could be a marker of risk in the female population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atrial fibrillation promotion by endurance exercise: demonstration and mechanistic exploration in an animal model.
Eduard Guasch,Begoña Benito,Xiao-Yan Qi,Carlo Cifelli,Patrice Naud,Yanfen Shi,Alexandra Mighiu,Jean-Claude Tardif,Artavazd Tadevosyan,Yu Chen,Marc-Antoine Gillis,Yu-ki Iwasaki,Dobromir Dobrev,Lluís Mont,Scott P. Heximer,Stanley Nattel +15 more
TL;DR: Chronic endurance exercise increased AF susceptibility in rats, with autonomic changes, atrial dilation, and fibrosis identified as potential mechanistic contributors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Left atrial posterior wall isolation does not improve the outcome of circumferential pulmonary vein ablation for atrial fibrillation: a prospective randomized study.
David Tamborero,Lluís Mont,Antonio Berruezo,Maria Matiello,Begoña Benito,Marta Sitges,Barbara Vidal,Teresa M. de Caralt,Rosario J. Perea,Radu Vatasescu,Josep Brugada +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the contribution of LA posterior wall isolation to the outcome of circumferential pulmonary vein ablation (CPVA) and found that the posterior wall did not increase the success rate of CPVA.
