Trials showing the benefit of weight loss (in combination with other strategies for managing
risk factors) in atrial fibrillation have primarily used high-protein, low-glycemic-index diets …

Importance Obesity is a risk factor for atrial fibrillation. Whether weight reduction and
cardiometabolic risk factor management can reduce the burden of atrial fibrillation is not …

Background: As global burden of atrial fibrillation (AF) surges, there is increasing interest in
the secondary prevention of the arrhythmia. Obesity being one of the prominent AF risk …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is increasing in prevalence with the aging population and its burden on
the health-care system is substantial. Analyses of three federally funded databases in the …

As the global burden of atrial fibrillation (AF) and its attendant economic impact on the
healthcare system surges, there is increasing interest in the secondary prevention of AF with …

Abstract Purpose of Review Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac
arrhythmia in humans, affecting more than 33 million people globally. Its association with …

Background: Obesity and atrial fibrillation (AF) frequently coexist. Weight loss reduces the
burden of AF, but whether this is sustained, has a dose effect, or is influenced by weight …

Aims Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a progressive disease. Obesity is associated with progression
of AF. This study evaluates the impact of weight and risk factor management (RFM) on …

Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia, is associated with
substantial morbidity, mortality, and healthcare use. Great strides have been made in stroke …

Obesity is independently associated with atrial fibrillation (AF). A short-term study has
previously shown that weight loss can reduce symptomatic AF burden, but whether this …
