Journal ArticleDOI

Blood pressure control and dementia risk in midlife patients with atrial fibrillation

TL;DR: There were a U-shaped association of BP and a log-linear association of hypertension burden with dementia risk among midlife AF patients, and minimizing the burden of hypertension in AF patients might help to prevent dementia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prognosis of high sinus heart rate after catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation

TL;DR: Post-AF ablation high sinus HR was observed in patients with smaller LA size and higher LA electrogram voltage and significant vagal modulation without adverse cardiac effects and was associated with a significantly lower clinical recurrence of AF after catheter ablation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Atrial Fibrillation Catheter Ablation Increases the Left Atrial Pressure

TL;DR: Atrial fibrillation catheter ablation, especially extrapulmonary vein LAAblation, increased the LA stiffness and was associated with a worsening postablation diastolic function, however, the symptom score did not significantly change.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of a Single Bolus Injection of Low-Dose Hydrocortisone for Prevention of Atrial Fibrillation Recurrence After Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated whether low-dose hydrocortisone is effective for the prevention of atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA).
Journal ArticleDOI

Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction is associated with atrial remodeling and risk or presence of stroke in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.

TL;DR: In patients with paroxysmal AF, the elevated LV filling pressure estimated by E/Em is independently associated with the presence of stroke or TIA.
