DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.13937
Abstract: Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) is now an established therapeutic option for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), but the long‐term recurrence rate of AF is still high. Sacubitril/valsartan (Sac/Val) is superior to valsartan in attenuating ventricular… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/joa3.12541
Abstract: Recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) after pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is associated with left atrial (LA) remodeling; however, its association with right atrial (RA) remodeling remains unclear. read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jcmm.15789
Abstract: Atrial structural remodelling including atrial hypertrophy and fibrosis is a key mediator of atrial fibrillation (AF). We previously demonstrated that the matricellular protein CCN5 elicits anti‐fibrotic and anti‐hypertrophic effects in left ventricles under pressure overload.… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics10030137
Abstract: Left atrial structural, functional and electrical remodelling are linked to atrial fibrillation (AF) pathophysiology and mirror the phrase “AF begets AF”. A structurally remodelled left atrium (LA) is fibrotic, dysfunctional and enlarged. Fibrosis is the… read more here.
