Background Obesity is a significant risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF), and the gut
microbiota is closely related to obesity-induced diseases. However, whether the gut …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is characterized by high morbidity and disability rate. The incidence of
AF has rapidly increased due to increased aging population, causing a serious burden on …

Objective: To investigate the functional changes of key gut microbiota (GM) that produce
lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients and to explore their potential role …

Disordered gut microbiota (GM) as the co-contributor of atrial fibrillation (AF) and
hypertension (HTN) might be associated with AF risk in HTN. This study aimed to explore the …

Background With the establishment of the cardiac-gut axis concept, increasing evidence has

Background. In our previous studies, we found a disordered taxonomic composition and
function of gut microbiota (GM) in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients. However, direct evidence …

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain a major global health burden, and emerging
evidence suggests that the gut microbiome plays a pivotal role in their pathogenesis and …

Aims Ageing is the most significant contributor to the increasing prevalence of atrial
fibrillation (AF). The gut microbiota dysbiosis is involved in age-related diseases. However …

One of the most prevalent cardiac diseases is cardiac arrhythmia, however the underlying
causes are not entirely understood. There is a lot of proof that GM (GM) and its metabolites …
