Electrical remodeling refers to any change in electrical function that promotes atrial
fibrillation (AF). A key advance in understanding the mechanisms of AF has been the …

Fibrillation. Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology (2000) 32, 1101–1117. Atrial …

An important acknowledgement of the last several years is that atrial fibrillation (AF) modifies
the electrical properties of the atrium in a way that promotes its occurrence and …

Heart failure (HF) causes complex, chronic changes in atrial structure and function, which
can cause substantial electrophysiological remodeling and predispose the individual to …

Atrial electrical and structural alterations (remodeling) have emerged as key elements in the
development of the atrial fibrillation (AF) substrate. Evidence points to abnormalities in …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common clinically relevant arrhythmia and is associated
with increased morbidity and mortality. The incidence of AF is expected to continue to rise …

This review is focused on electrical adaptational processes in patients with chronic AF.
Cellular electrical remodeling includes shortening of action potential duration and effective …

▪ Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) was recognized and studied extensively in the early twentieth
century, but many fundamental aspects of the arrhythmia were poorly understood until quite …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent cardiac arrhythmia, affecting 1% to 2% of the
general population. It is characterized by rapid and disorganized atrial activation leading to …

The prevalence of atrial fibrillation (AF) is bound to increase globally in the following years,
affecting the quality of life of millions of people, increasing mortality and morbidity, and …
