  1. 11. Cardiac involvement in familial amyloidosis with polyneuropathy

    Författare :Peter Eriksson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; amyloidosis; arrhythmias; cardiac pacing; cardiac radionuclide; imaging; echocardiography; electrocardiography; pathology;

    Sammanfattning : Familial amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (FAP) is a neuropathic form of heredofamilial systemic amyloidosis. Clusters of patients have been reported predominantly from Portugal, Japan and Sweden. The present study examines the involvement of the heart in individuals with the Swedish variety of FAP. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Sex and gender differences in patients undergoing ablation of atrial arrhythmias

    Författare :Carina Carnlöf; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Women and men differ in the prevalence of arrhythmias. Furthermore, there are sex and gender differences in referral for ablation, symptom severity, health-related quality of life (HRQOL), functional impairment and response to treatment, risk factors, and outcomes.

  4. 13. Atrial fibrillation : clinical presentation and prevention of recurrences

    Författare :Anna Nergårdh; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Atrial fibrillation; arrhythmias; beta-blocker; cardioversion; symptoms;

    Sammanfattning : Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia of clinical importance. AF is known to decrease quality of life and it is related to an increased morbidity and a risk of tromboembolic events. AF may also be asymptomatic, and to what extent patients actually are able to distinguish between sinus rhythm (SR) and AF is unknown. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Clinical aspects of device-detected arrhythmias

    Författare :Emma Sandgren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : INTRODUCTION: Cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) enable continuous monitoring of the heart rhythm. CIEDs constitute a unique opportunity for detecting arrhythmias, as the duration of cardiac monitoring is of the utmost importance for the detection rate. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Atrial fibrillation : clinical presentation and management, with special emphasis on magnesium therapy

    Författare :Mats Frick; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :atrial fibrillation; magnesium; arrhythmias; cardioversion; sotalol;

    Sammanfattning : Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia, causing disabling symptoms, risk of thromboembolic events and increased mortality. Some patients with AF are asymptomatic, but to what extent these patients differ from patients with symptoms is unclear. LÄS MER
