2012 HRS/EHRA/ECAS expert consensus statement on catheter and surgical ablation of atrial fibrillation: recommendations for patient selection, procedural techniques, patient management and follow-up, definitions, endpoints, and research trial design (2012, background): “In addition, systolic or diastolic dysfunction and heart failure of any etiology predispose to AF, probably through volume and/ or pressure overload of the atrium [151, 152].”
Relation of Disease Pathogenesis and Risk Factors to Heart Failure With Preserved or Reduced Ejection Fraction: Insights From the Framingham Heart Study of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (2009, neutral): “Heart rate, bpm, mean (SD) 90 (23) 97 (25) 92 (27) 97 (26) 0.”
Recommendations for cardiac chamber quantification by echocardiography in adults: an update from the American Society of Echocardiography and the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging. (2015, background): “LA volume has been shown to be a powerful prognostic variable in a variety of cardiac disease states.(99,106,112,113,115-117,122,131-136) Compared with AP diameter, LA volume has a stronger association with outcomes in cardiac patients.”
Recommendations for chamber quantification: a report from the American Society of Echocardiography's Guidelines and Standards Committee and the Chamber Quantification Writing Group, developed in conjunction with the European Association of Echocardiography, a branch of the European Society of Cardio (2005, methodology): “LA volumes are best calculated using either an ellipsoid model or Simpson’s rule.(88,89,97,101,102,109-111,115-117) The ellipsoid model assumes that the LA can be adequately represented as a prolate ellipse with a volume of 4 /3 (L/2) (D1/2) (D2/2), where L is the long axis (ellipsoid) and D1 and D2”
