Cognitive function

  1. Silent atrial fibrillation is linked with worse cognitive function in humans (comparison between symptomatic AF and silent AF) (25.8 [0.26] vs 24.3 [0.38]).

    “difference in the number of points obtained by the patients with symptomatic AF and SAF, with the latter group having the lower score (25.8 [0.26] vs 24.3 [0.38]; P = 0.001).”

  1. NT-proBNP is associated with silent atrial fibrillation in humans.

    “The risk factors for SAF were age, male gender, ICS/TIA, diabetes, heart failure, CKD, and NT-proBNP >125 ng/mL.”
