Journal ArticleDOI
The Clinical Profile and Pathophysiology of Atrial Fibrillation Relationships Among Clinical Features, Epidemiology, and Mechanisms
TL;DR: Better recognition of the clinical epidemiology of AF, as well as an improved appreciation of the underlying mechanisms, is needed to develop improved methods for AF prevention and management.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ionic Remodeling Underlying Action Potential Changes in a Canine Model of Atrial Fibrillation
TL;DR: It is concluded that sustained atrial tachycardia reduces Ito and ICa, that the reduced ICa decreases APD and APD adaptation to rate, and that these cellular changes likely account for the alterations in atrial refractoriness associated with enhanced ability to maintain AF in the model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arrhythmogenic Ion-Channel Remodeling in the Heart: Heart Failure, Myocardial Infarction, and Atrial Fibrillation
TL;DR: The changes in ion channel and transporter properties associated with three important clinical and experimental paradigms: congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction, and atrial fibrillation are reviewed and important opportunities for improved therapeutic approaches are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibition on the Development of the Atrial Fibrillation Substrate in Dogs With Ventricular Tachypacing–Induced Congestive Heart Failure
TL;DR: CHF-induced increases in angiotensin II content and MAPK activation contribute to arrhythmogenic atrial structural remodeling and may represent a useful new component to AF therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atrial Fibrillation Pathophysiology Implications for Management
TL;DR: The basic pathophysiology of AF is reviewed over a broad range of levels, touching on the tissue mechanisms that maintain the arrhythmia, the relationship between clinical presentation and basic mechanisms, ion channel and transporter abnormalities that lead to ectopic impulse formation, and the implications for improved rhythm control pharmacotherapy.
