Aim: to elucidate contribution of atrial fibrillation (AF) to mortality from various causes among men and women in Russia.
Material And Methods: We analyzed data from samples of population of Moscow and Petersburg (Leningrad) aged 35-74 years examined in different years. Total number of subjects was 20045 (15107 men), response rate was 75%. Examination was carried out according to unified protocol incorporating collection of standard information on social and demographic parameters, smoking status and alcohol consumption, history.

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and atrial fibrillation (AF) are increasingly prevalent cardiovascular conditions, particularly among the elderly population. These two conditions share common risk factors and often coexist, leading to a complex interplay that alters the clinical course of each other. The pathophysiology of HFpEF is multifaceted and intricately linked, with atrial disease serving as a common pathophysiological pathway.

Background: Pericardial complications following cardiac surgery are common and debilitating, significantly impacting patients' survival. We performed this network meta-analysis to identify the most effective and safest preventions and treatments for pericardial complications following cardiac surgery.
Methods: We systematically searched PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane CENTRAL from inception to 22 January 2024.

Background And Objective: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a significant cause of life-threatening heart disease due to its potential to lead to stroke and heart failure. Although deep learning-assisted diagnosis of AF based on ECG holds significance in clinical settings, it remains unsatisfactory due to insufficient consideration of noise and redundant features. In this work, we propose a novel multiscale feature-enhanced gating network (MFEG Net) for AF diagnosis.
