Atrial fibrillation (AF) burden is strongly associated with an increased risk of stroke, which, in most cases, can be prevented through earlier detection of AF and the timely initiation of anticoagulation therapy. Smartphone devices can provide a simple, non-invasive, cost-effective early AF detection solution. PubMed, Embase, and Scopus databases were searched for studies comparing smartphone-based photoplethysmography (PPG) with standard electrocardiogram for AF detection.

Background: Arterial stiffness, measured using carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (c-f PWV) and heart rate-corrected augmentation index (Aix75), is associated with cardiovascular disease, and in some studies incident atrial fibrillation (AF). In this cross-sectional study, we aimed to investigate whether arterial stiffness is associated with markers of atrial myopathy, which refers to structural and electrical changes in the atria that indicate increased AF risk.
Methods: We included 1050 participants (age 57 ± 4.

Aims: To assess whether better cardiovascular health is associated with a lower long-term risk of CVD in women with a history of adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs).
Methods: Using data from the UK Biobank prospective cohort, we included 2,263 participants with prior APOs and 107,260 participants without prior APOs. Life's Essential 8 (LE8) score was assessed at baseline.
