Cardiac conduction system disease

1. Intensive blood pressure control has no effect on cardiac conduction system disease in humans (6.42% vs 5.94%).

   “The incidence of new-onset CSD was similar in the intensive (n = 205, 6.42%) and standard (n = 188, 5.94%) treatment arms.”

1. Body mass index is associated with cardiac conduction system disease in humans.

   “Increased age, male sex and increased body mass index were independently associated with increased risk for new-onset CSD.”

1. Cardiac conduction system disease raises the risk of acute decompensated heart failure in humans.

   “Participants with preexisting CSD had a higher risk for acute decompensated heart failure.”
