Memantine has demonstrated efficacy in suppressing premature atrial contractions in a phase II trial. The study showed a reduction in both atrial ectopy and overall atrial tachyarrhythmia ...

Older age was also an independent risk factor for ventricular ectopic burden; lower eGFR linked to high AEB, VEB. (HealthDay News) — Age is a significant independent risk factor for atrial ectopic ...

Univariate analysis revealed that "high atrial ectopic burden" was associated with older age, male sex, lower fitness levels, high blood pressure and a measure of reduced kidney health. High ...

New research finds that low fitness levels and older age are strong and independent risk factors for heartbeat irregularities, or arrhythmias*, in healthy adults. These arrhythmias were previously ...

A novel trial using real-time monitoring found that drinking coffee did not increase atrial arrhythmias but was associated with more premature ventricular contractions. There was no increase in ...

Model of human heart behind illustrated ECG traces, studio shot Among the study’s findings, patients with CKD have a higher risk of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. Chronic kidney disease ...
