Abstract: Abstract Introduction Premature atrial complexes (PACs) are associated with atrial fibrillation (AF) risk, but also common in the general population. The origin and mechanism through which PACs arise lead to different electrocardiographic presentations, and may… read more here.

Abstract: The term ‘epidemic’ is increasingly used to describe the rising global prevalence of atrial fibrillation (AF). Recent estimates suggest that AF accounts for between 0.9% and 1.6% of total healthcare expenditure in the UK, forecast… read more here.

DOI: 10.1161/circ.141.suppl_1.p115
Abstract: Background: There is conflicting evidence regarding the association between atrial fibrillation (AF) and the risk of subsequent fractures. Methods: We included participants aged 45 years or older from the Framingham Heart Study Offspring, Third Generation,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/medicina55100611
Abstract: Subclinical atrial fibrillation (SCAF) describes asymptomatic episodes of atrial fibrillation (AF) that are detected by cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED). The increased utilization of CIEDs renders our understanding of SCAF important to clinical practice. Furthermore,… read more here.
