29 Δεκ 2023 · In particular, expanding epicardial adipose tissue during obesity has been suggested as a key driver of AF via paracrine signaling and direct infiltration. Weight loss has been shown to reverse these changes and reduce AF risk and recurrence after ablation.
Weight loss has be shown to be beneficial for cardiovascular health by directly reducing the risk of AF and incidence of other cardiovascular events [5]. This review delves into the intricate relationship between obesity and AF, emphasizing the beneficial impact of weight loss on AF.
‘This is the first time that evidence has been found that if people who are obese and are suffering from atrial fibrillation the disease can be alleviated by losing weight and treating lifestyle factors,’ says lead author Dr Melissa Middeldorp, researcher from the University of Adelaide’s Centre for Heart Rhythm Disorders.
14 Μαΐ 2024 · Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a supraventricular arrhythmia arising from erratic and often rapid electrical activation of the atria (upper chambers of the heart), which leads to ineffective atrial contraction and loss of atrioventricular synchrony (co‐ordinated contraction of the upper and lower heart chambers; Nabar 2016).
1 Ιαν 2023 · This review examines the clinical evidence demonstrating the benefit of weight reduction in the management of atrial fibrillation. In particular, this review compares the different approaches of recent studies.
OSA and obesity were independently associated with incident AF in subjects under 65 years. These findings are important for two reasons; first the severity of nocturnal oxygen desaturation was positively correlated with AF risk and second, the association between obesity and AF risk remained after controlling for OSA.
