Unraveling the interplay: early-stage atrial functional mitral regurgitation and left atrial electrical substrate in atrial fibrillation patients

BackgroundAtrial fibrillation (AF) triggers atrial remodeling, impacting atrial function and ablation efficacy. This remodeling leads to atrial cardiomyopathy and dilatation, linked to mitral regurgitation, forming atrial functional mitral regurgitation (aFMR). Our study explores the relationship be...
