Atrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia worldwide with increasing frequency noted
with age. Hyperthyroidism is a well-known cause of atrial fibrillation with a 16%–60 …

Voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels each comprise four pore-forming α-subunits that
orchestrate essential duties such as voltage sensing and K+ selectivity and conductance. In …

Thyroid carcinoma is the most common endocrine cancer in the world, and its incidence has
been steadily increasing in recent years. Despite its relatively good prognosis, therapies …

Objective: To explore the potential contribution of genetic variation in voltage-gated chloride
channels to epilepsy, we analyzed CLCN family (CLCN1-7) gene variant profiles in …

Aims To examine the long-term risk of hyperthyroidism in patients admitted to hospital with
new-onset AF. Hyperthyroidism is a well-known risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF), but it is …

Introduction Despite undergoing an index ablation, some patients progress from paroxysmal
atrial fibrillation (PAF) to persistent AF (PersAF), and the mechanism behind this is unclear …

Cardiac remodeling includes alterations in molecular, cellular, and interstitial systems
contributing to changes in size, shape, and function of the heart. This may be the result of …

Endocrine disorders are associated with various tachyarrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation
(AF), ventricular tachycardia (VT), ventricular fibrillation (VF), and bradyarrhythmias. Along …

We aimed to study the impact of altered thyroid status on myocardial expression of electrical
coupling protein connexin-43 (Cx43), the susceptibility of rats to ventricular fibrillation (VF) …

The thyroid functions as a regulator of cardiac function and rhythm through genomic and
nongenomic actions of triiodothyronine (T3) in cardiac myocytes. Atrial fibrillation is a …
