Aerobic Interval Training Prevents Age-Dependent Vulnerability to Atrial Fibrillation in Rodents
Aims: Increasing age is the most important risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF). Very high doses of exercise training might increase AF risk, while moderate levels seem to be protective. This study aimed to examine the effects of age on vulnerability to AF and whether long-term aerobic interval training (AIT) could modify these effects. Methods: Nine months old, male Sprague-Dawley rats wer...
متن کاملAtrial fibrillation and atrial vulnerability in patients with Brugada syndrome.
OBJECTIVES We sought to study atrial vulnerability in patients with Brugada syndrome. BACKGROUND Atrial fibrillation (AF) often occurs in patients with Brugada syndrome, but atrial vulnerability in Brugada syndrome has not been evaluated. METHODS The patient group consisted of 18 patients with Brugada syndrome. The control group consisted of 12 age- and gender-matched subjects who had neith...
متن کاملThe QT interval in atrial fibrillation.
The electrocardiogram was recorded for 100 seconds in 50 patients with atrial fibrillation to determine the relations between QT intervals and both the mean and instantaneous ventricular rates. The mean ventricular rate was 94 beats per minute with a mean QT interval of 357 ms. The mean QTc, corrected beat by beat with Bazett's formula, was 444 ms--longer than reported for sinus rhythm. Between...
متن کاملArrhythmia/Electrophysiology Repolarization Alternans Reveals Vulnerability to Human Atrial Fibrillation
Background—The substrates for human atrial fibrillation (AF) are poorly understood, but involve abnormal repolarization (action potential duration [APD]). We hypothesized that beat-to-beat oscillations in APD may explain AF substrates, and why vulnerability to AF forms a spectrum from control subjects without AF to patients with paroxysmal then persistent AF. Methods and Results—In 33 subjects ...
