Abstract: Background Circulating galectin-3 (Gal-3) and aldosterone (ALD) are involved in fibrosis and inflammation. However, their potential value as predictors of atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) is unknown or controversial. Therefore, the… read more here.

Abstract: To the Editor Prediction of future ventricular tachyarrhythmia is challenging. Makimoto et al. demonstrated that an elevated circulating galectin-3 level was associated with future ventricular arrhythmic events and decompensated heart failure, regardless of a history… read more here.
