Journal ArticleDOI
High circulating adiponectin level is associated with poor clinical outcome after catheter ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
TL;DR: High circulating adiponectin is independently associated with AF recurrence after catheter ablation for PAF, especially younger than 65 years old, and the clinical recurrence rate was significantly higher in the highest quartile of adiponECTin group than the others.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chronic amiodarone therapy impairs the function of the superior sinoatrial node in patients with atrial fibrillation.
Hee-Sun Mun,Hee-Sun Mun,Changyu Shen,Hui Nam Pak,Moon Hyoung Lee,Shien-Fong Lin,Peng-Sheng Chen,Boyoung Joung +7 more
TL;DR: In a quarter of the AF patients, amiodarone causes superior SAN dysfunction, which results in a downward shift of the EAS and reduced P-wave amplitude in leads II, III and aVF at baseline and during isoproterenol infusion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stroke Risk Stratification for Atrial Fibrillation Patients With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Hyunjean Jung,Jung Hoon Sung,Pil Sung Yang,Eunsun Jang,Hee Tae Yu,Tae Hoon Kim,Hui Nam Pak,Moon Hyoung Lee,Boyoung Joung,Gregory Y.H. Lip +9 more
TL;DR: Stroke prevention is the principal management priority in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF) given its association with a 5-fold increase in stroke risk.
Chronic frequent premature ventricular complexes originating from right and non-right ventricular outflow tracts
TL;DR: RFCA of PVCs leads to a reduction of LV volume and improvement of LV systolic function regardless of the origin of the PVCs, and a non-RVOT-origin as well as an RVOT- origin ofThe PVCs can cause DCM-like changes in the left ventricle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Social Inequalities of Oral Anticoagulation after the Introduction of Non-Vitamin K Antagonists in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation
Hee Tae Yu,Pil Sung Yang,Jinseub Hwang,Soorack Ryu,Eunsun Jang,Tae Hoon Kim,Jae Sun Uhm,Jong Youn Kim,Hui Nam Pak,Moon Hyoung Lee,Gregory Y.H. Lip,Boyoung Joung +11 more
TL;DR: Introduction of NOACs in routine practice for stroke prevention in AF was associated with improved rates of overall OAC use, however, significant practice-level variations in OAC and NOAC use remain producing social inequalities of OAC despite full reimbursement.
