Journal ArticleDOI

The importance of whether atrial fibrillation or heart failure develops first.

TL;DR: The prognosis of AF patients hospitalized for heart failure is assessed based on the timing of AF and heart failure development, which indicates that the sequence in which AF andheart failure develop is of significance regarding prognosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

RAte Control Efficacy in permanent atrial fibrillation: a comparison between lenient versus strict rate control in patients with and without heart failure. Background, aims, and design of RACE II.

TL;DR: In patients with permanent AF, lenient rate control is not inferior to strict rate control in terms of cardiovascular mortality, morbidity, neurohormonal activation, New York Heart Association class for heart failure, left ventricular function, left atrial size, quality of life, and costs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficacy of antiarrhythmic drugs in adults with congenital heart disease and supraventricular tachycardias.

TL;DR: In this paper, the efficacy of antiarrhythmic drugs in adults with CHD and first-onset SVT on maintaining sinus rhythm after conversion was evaluated in a multicenter retrospective study.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of inflammation in early atrial fibrillation recurrence.

TL;DR: In patients with short-lasting AF, early AF recurrence seemed to be associated with inflammation as represented by IL-6, suggesting that treatment aimed against inflammation may preventEarly AF recurrences, which can improve rhythm control outcome.
