Sympathetic Nervous System Activation and Its Modulation: Role in Atrial Fibrillation

Sympathetic Nervous System Activation and Its Modulation: Role in Atrial Fibrillation

The autonomic nervous system (ANS) has a significant influence on the structural integrity and electrical conductivity of the atria. Aberrant activation of the sympathetic nervous system can induce heterogeneous changes with arrhythmogenic potential which can result in atrial tachycardia, atrial tac...
