Ischemic heart disease is one of the most frequent causes of heart failure and it is normally …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is commonly associated with heart failure. A bidirectional relationship
exists between the two—AF exacerbates heart failure causing a significant increase in heart …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) are evolving epidemics, together responsible for

Atrial fibrillation (AF) contributes to morbidity and mortality of millions of individuals. Its
molecular, cellular, neurohumoral, and hemodynamic pathophysiological mechanisms are …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) are common cardiovascular diseases that often
co-exist. Animal models have suggested complex AF-promoting atrial structural, electrical …

Ventricular arrhythmias, mainly lethal arrhythmias, such as ventricular tachycardia and
fibrillation, may lead to sudden cardiac death. These are triggered as a result of cardiac …

Chronic heart failure is a clinical syndrome with multiple etiologies, associated with
