Dabigatran, rivaroxaban and apixaban vs. high TTR warfarin in atrial fibrillation
TL;DR: This study showed no difference between apixaban, dabigatran, or rivaroxaban compared to high TTR warfarin treatment regarding stroke prevention, however, fewer bleeding events were seen for apixban and dabig atran, but not for rivroxaban.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of Oxidative Stress in the Genesis of Ventricular Arrhythmias
TL;DR: It is concluded that pharmacological approaches targeting multiple mechanisms besides oxidative stress might be more effective in the treatment of ventricular arrhythmias than current antiarrhythmic therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of CD4+CD28null T-lymphocytes on atrial fibrillation and mortality in patients with chronic heart failure
Patrick Sulzgruber,Lorenz Koller,Max-Paul Winter,Bernhard Richter,Steffen Blum,Magdalena Korpak,Martin Hülsmann,Georg Goliasch,Johann Wojta,Alexander Niessner +9 more
TL;DR: It was found that the fraction of CD4+CD28null cells proved to be predictive on outcome in CHF-patients presenting with AF, which might indicate a potential role in the pathogenesis of AF which needs to be confirmed in future studies.

Phrenic nerve injury in atrial fibrillation ablation using balloon catheters: Incidence, characteristics, and clinical recovery course.
Shota Tohoku,Shaojie Chen,Shaojie Chen,Stefano Bordignon,Fabrizio Bologna,Luca Trolese,Simone Zanchi,Lorenzo Bianchini,Boris Schmidt,K.R. Julian Chun,K.R. Julian Chun +10 more
TL;DR: This work aimed to investigate the incidence, characteristics, and clinical recovery course in patients with PNP who underwent CBA or LBA who underwent balloon ablation techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficacy and safety of non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants compared with warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation.
Leif Friberg,Jonas Oldgren +1 more
TL;DR: In this large non-selected anticoagulation naïve Swedish atrial fibrillation cohort, the risks for all-cause stroke or systemic embolism were similar with NOACs and warfarin, but noACs were associated with significantly lower risks of all- cause mortality, major bleeding and intracranial haemorrhage but higher risk of gastrointestinal bleeding.

TL;DR: In this article, a randomized controlled trial of Aliskiren in the Prevention of Major Cardiovascular Events in Elderly people was presented. But the authors did not discuss the effect of the combination therapy in patients living with systolic hypertension.

Classification of subtype of acute ischemic stroke. Definitions for use in a multicenter clinical trial. TOAST. Trial of Org 10172 in Acute Stroke Treatment
Harold P. Adams,Birgitte H. Bendixen,L J Kappelle,José Biller,Betsy B. Love,David Lee Gordon,E. Eugene Marsh +6 more
TL;DR: The TOAST stroke subtype classification system is easy to use and has good interobserver agreement and should allow investigators to report responses to treatment among important subgroups of patients with ischemic stroke.

TL;DR: In patients with atrial fibrillation, dabigatran given at a dose of 110 mg was associated with rates of stroke and systemic embolism that were similar to those associated with warfarin, as well as lower rates of major hemorrhage.

Spontaneous Initiation of Atrial Fibrillation by Ectopic Beats Originating in the Pulmonary Veins
Michel Haïssaguerre,Pierre Jaïs,D. C. Shah,Atsushi Takahashi,Mélèze Hocini,G Quiniou,S. Garrigue,A Le Mouroux,P Le Métayer,Jacques Clementy +9 more
TL;DR: The pulmonary veins are an important source of ectopic beats, initiating frequent paroxysms of atrial fibrillation and these foci respond to treatment with radio-frequency ablation.

TL;DR: In patients with atrial fibrillation, apixaban was superior to warfarin in preventing stroke or systemic embolism, caused less bleeding, and resulted in lower mortality.
