Inflammatory cytokines

This review highlights the evidence linking inflammatory cytokines to atrial fibrillation and discusses the potential prognostic and therapeutic implications of targeting inflammation in AF.

Cite This Study

Hadi (2010) conducted a review in Atrial fibrillation. Inflammatory cytokines was evaluated. Inflammatory cytokines, including IL-6 and CRP, are associated with the development and prognosis of atrial fibrillation, suggesting a potential role for anti-inflammatory therapies.
