Galectin-3 Regulates Atrial Fibrillation Remodeling and Predicts Catheter Ablation Outcomes
Atrial fibrillation (AF) usually starts as paroxysmal but can evolve relentlessly to the persistent and permanent forms. However, the mechanisms governing such a transition are unknown. The authors show that intracardiac serum levels of galectin (Gal)-3 are greater in patients with persistent than p...
