Journal ArticleDOI
The impairment of health-related quality of life in patients with intermittent atrial fibrillation: implications for the assessment of investigational therapy.
Paul Dorian,Werner Jung,David Newman,Miney Paquette,Kathryn A. Wood,Gregory M. Ayers,John Camm,Masood Akhtar,Berndt Lüderitz +8 more
TL;DR: Quality of life is as impaired in patients with intermittent atrial fibrillation as in Patients with significant structural heart disease and patients' perception of QoL is not dependent on the objective measures of disease severity that are usually employed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quality of life improves with treatment in the Canadian Trial of Atrial Fibrillation.
Paul Dorian,Miney Paquette,David Newman,Martin S. Green,Stuart J. Connolly,Mario Talajic,Denis Roy +6 more
TL;DR: In patients with symptomatic AF, QOL improves after treatment, independent of the specific drug used for treatment, especially true for patients in whom treatment prevents AF recurrence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Depression and risk of sudden cardiac death after acute myocardial infarction: testing for the confounding effects of fatigue.
Jane Irvine,Antoni Basinski,Brian Baker,Stacey Jandciu,Miney Paquette,John A. Cairns,Stuart J. Connolly,Robin S. Roberts,Michael Gent,Paul Dorian +9 more
TL;DR: The trend for the cognitive-affective symptoms of depression to be associated with SCD risk, even after controlling for dyspnea/fatigue, suggests that the association between depression and mortality after AMI cannot be entirely explained as a confound of cardiac-related fatigue.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of gender and personality on quality-of-life impairment in intermittent atrial fibrillation.
TL;DR: Independent of cardiac disease severity and age, women with AF had significantly more impaired QOL than men, specifically on domains related to physical rather than emotional functioning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Poor Adherence to Placebo or Amiodarone Therapy Predicts Mortality: Results From the CAMIAT Study
Jane Irvine,Brian Baker,Janice Smith,Stacey Jandciu,Miney Paquette,John A. Cairns,Stuart J. Connolly,Robin S. Roberts,Michael Gent,Paul Dorian +9 more
TL;DR: The relationship between adherence and social activities suggests a higher motivation to adhere to treatment in individuals more engaged in enjoyable activities, which is associated with a greater risk of mortality.
