The prothrombotic state in atrial fibrillation (AF) occurs as a result of multifaceted
interactions, known as Virchow's triad of hypercoagulability, structural abnormalities, and …

Background—Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol is a strong risk factor for
atherosclerosis but has an inverse association with atrial fibrillation (AF). We aimed to …

Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a cardiac arrhythmia associated with an elevated risk of
stroke, heart failure, and mortality. However, preventative therapies are needed with …

Abstract Background and Aims Lipoprotein (a)(Lp [a]) is an established risk factor for
atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). However, data on association of Lp (a) …

Background There is an increasing body of evidence associating traditional cardiovascular
risk factors with atrial fibrillation (AF), but the relationship between blood lipid profiles and …

Background The association between dyslipidemia, a major risk factor for cardiovascular
diseases, and atrial fibrillation (AF) is not clear because of limited evidence. Hypothesis …

Atherothrombosis is a complication of atherosclerosis that causes acute cardiovascular
events such as myocardial infarction and stroke. Circulating lipid levels are highly correlated …

Background Lipoprotein (a)(Lp [a]) is proatherosclerotic and prothrombotic, causally related
to coronary disease, and associated with other cardiovascular diseases. The association of …

Specific treatment that primarily reduces low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLc) levels
improves survival of patients with pre-existing vascular disease by 20–30%. Failure to …

Background and aims An inverse relationship between lipid levels and atrial fibrillation (AF)
has been suggested, but whether the association is upheld for all age groups remains …
