Featured Abstract
Structural Cardiac Abnormalities in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation-Flutter and Myocardial Injury.
High sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) is often increased in patients with atrial fibrillation/ flutter, portending a poor prognosis. The etiologies for these increases have not been systematically investigated. Our aim was to define prevalence/significance of structural cardiac abnormalities in patients with atrial fibrillation/flutter and hs-cTnT increases.
