Journal ArticleDOI

The clinical value of regular thyroid function tests during amiodarone treatment

TL;DR: Data is provided to reconsider the yield of regular testing of thyroid function to predict overt thyroid dysfunction in amiodarone treated patients to help clarify the value of long-term regular monitoring for thyroid dysfunction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Beat shock proteins and atrial fibrillation.

TL;DR: Both correlative studies in human and experimental studies suggest that Hsp27 (HspB1) may delay progression of AF to the more permanent forms and hence HSp27 might be referred to as a “Beat shock protein”.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sex-related differences in risk factors, outcome, and quality of life in patients with permanent atrial fibrillation: results from the RACE II study

TL;DR: In this permanent AF population, women had more accumulation of AF risk factors than men and QoL was negatively influenced by the higher number of risk factors in women, suggesting that sex differences may be driven by the greater risk factor burden in women.
Journal ArticleDOI

Atrial fibrillation: villain or bystander in vascular brain injury.

TL;DR: A changed conceptual model with less focus on the arrhythmia, and more on atrial substrate/cardiomyopathy causing VBI both in the presence or absence of AF, is required to allow us to better prevent AF-related VBI.
