Insulin Treatment Reduces Susceptibility to Atrial Fibrillation in Type 1 Diabetic Mice

Insulin Treatment Reduces Susceptibility to Atrial Fibrillation in Type 1 Diabetic Mice

Diabetes has been identified as an independent risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common chronic cardiac arrhythmia. Whether or not glucose and insulin disturbances observed during diabetes enhance arrhythmogenicity of the atria, potentially leading to AF, is not well-known. We hypot...
