Serum miR-222 is independently associated with atrial fibrillation in patients with degenerative valvular heart disease

Abstract Background Inflammation is involved in the progression of degenerative valvular heart disease (DVHD). microRNA-222 (miR-222) contributes to inflammation-mediated vascular remodeling, but its involvement in DVHD in relation to atrial fibrillation (AF) is unknown. This study aimed to investig...
