The pacemaker syndrome: old and new causes.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Atrial fibrillation (AF), a disease of the elderly, occasionally occurs at younger age. Pathophysiology of AF in younger patients is diverse, including channelopathies and cardiomyopathies. Data on the significance and complications of AF in young patients are scarce. HYPOTHESIS:Atrial fibrillation is the f...
