Predictors of the voltage derived left atrial fibrosis in patients with long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation

Radoslaw M. Kiedrowicz et al.

Summary: In patients with long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation (LSPAF), the arrhythmogenic substrate beyond the pulmonary veins (PV) is associated with the presence and extent of atrial fibrosis. Female sex, valvular heart disease, and CHA₂DS₂-VASc score ≥4 are significant predictors of atrial fibrosis.

Posterior box isolation as an adjunctive ablation strategy with the second-generation cryoballoon for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation: a comparison with standard cryoballoon pulmonary vein isolation

Antonio Bisignani et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the impact of left atrial posterior wall isolation (LAPWI) in addition to pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) vs PVI alone using CB-A in patients with PAF over a 12-month midterm follow-up. Results showed that adding LAPWI did not significantly reduce the risk of AF recurrence compared to standard PVI procedures.

Accuracy of left atrial fibrosis detection with cardiac magnetic resonance: correlation of late gadolinium enhancement with endocardial voltage and conduction velocity

Gala Caixal et al.

Summary: The study analyzed the accuracy of LGE-MRI in identifying the arrhythmogenic substrate in the left atrium, showing that areas with higher LGE exhibit lower voltage and slower conduction. Furthermore, in patients with dilated atria (LA diameter >= 45), the predictive capacity of LGE-MRI for conduction velocity may be weaker.

Prediction of low-voltage areas using modified APPLE score

Timm Seewoester et al.

Summary: The study compared the modified (m)APPLE score, including LA volume and LA emptying fraction, with the regular APPLE score for the prediction of LVAs in patients undergoing first AF catheter ablation. The modified (m)APPLE score demonstrated good prognostic value for LVAs prediction, showing better performance than the regular APPLE score, although without statistically significant difference.

Left atrial fibrosis in atrial fibrillation: Mechanisms, clinical evaluation and management

Jin Ma et al.

Summary: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is strongly associated with atrial fibrosis, which plays a crucial role in the arrhythmogenic substrate and treatment of AF. Clinical evaluation methods and prevention options for atrial fibrosis are key factors in managing AF.

Summary: Chronic cardiac HDAC6 activation induces atrial electrical and structural remodeling, and increases sustained AF. Hypertension-induced cardiac HDAC6 catalytic activity may play important roles in the development of AF.
