Atrial remodeling is directly related to end-diastolic left ventricular pressure in a mouse model of ventricular pressure overload.

BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is often preceded by underlying cardiac diseases causing ventricular pressure overload. OBJECTIVE: It was our aim to investigate the progression of atrial remodeling in a small animal model of ventricular pressure overload and its association with induction of AF...
