Compared with matched controls, patients with postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) have increased long-term AF after CABG, and POAF is further associated with increased ischemic stroke, heart failure and mortality even after adjustment for AF.
Emma Thorén,Mona-Lisa Wernroth,Christina Christersson,Karl-Henrik Grinnemo,Lena Jidéus,Elisabeth Ståhle +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, an observational cohort study of 7145 in-hospital survivors after isolated CABG (1996-2012), with preoperative sinus rhythm and without AF history was compared with matched controls.

Eleonor I. Fransson,Eleonor I. Fransson,Maria Nordin,Linda L. Magnusson Hanson,Hugo Westerlund +4 more
TL;DR: The meta-analysis of the present and two previously published studies showed a consistent pattern, with job strain being associated with increased risk of atrial fibrillation in all three studies.

Blank,Carina Blomström-Lundqvist,Axel Brandes,Axel Brandes,Nuno Cabanelas,G-Andrei Dan,Wolfgang Dichtl,Andreas Goette,Joris R. de Groot,Andrzej Lubiński,Eloi Marijon,Béla Merkely,Lluís Mont,Christopher Piorkowski,Andrea Sarkozy,Neil Sulke,Panos E.

TL;DR: A comprehensive, tabulated review of published literature on the prevalence of atrial high-rate episodes and their impact on risk of stroke in patients with AHRE and in patients without AHRE, found that oral anticoagulation has the potential to reduce stroke risk but is associated with a rate of major bleeding of 2%/year.

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.
