Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent form of supraventricular arrhythmia, with increasing global significance due to its association with various cardiovascular risks. Recent investigations reveal that oxidative stress and inflammation play pivotal roles in its pathology. Understanding these underlying mechanisms is crucial for developing effective preventive and therapeutic strategies. We invite you to contribute to this Special Issue, which will focus on the multifaceted relationship between oxidative stress, inflammation, and atrial fibrillation.
The primary objective of this Special Issue is to explore innovative approaches for mitigating the incidence of atrial fibrillation by integrating various therapeutic modalities. This includes examining the interplay between diet, physical activity, traditional medicine, and pharmacotherapy for reducing oxidative and inflammatory burdens. We encourage submissions that align closely with the journal's scope, which can be found in the Journal Menu under Aims and Scope. Our goal is to provide a comprehensive overview of integrative medicine strategies for the management of atrial fibrillation.
We welcome original research articles and review papers. Potential research areas include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Mechanisms of oxidative stress in atrial fibrillation;
- The role of inflammatory markers in supraventricular arrhythmias;
- Integrative approaches to managing atrial fibrillation (diet, exercise, and traditional practices);
- Pharmacological interventions targeting oxidative and inflammatory pathways.
We look forward to receiving your valuable contributions.
