Pharmacological interventions for preventing atrial fibrillation after lung surgery: systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionCurrent clinical evidence supports the effectiveness of pharmacological intervention with beta-blockers, amiodarone, magnesium sulfate, or calcium-channel blockers to reduce the incidence of POAF after lung surgery in patients with lung cancer. In the absence of contraindications, prophylaxis with beta-blockers seems to be the most effective of the treatments studied.

CIB2 Is a Novel Endogenous Repressor of Atrial Remodeling
CONCLUSIONS: Our data suggest that CIB2 represents a novel endogenous and atrial-enriched regulator that protects against atrial remodeling and AF under stress conditions. Therefore, CIB2 may represent a new potential target for treating AF.PMID:37128899 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.062660
