“…Under this respect, the major finding of the study is that patients, while having lone atrial fibrillation, (24) and by Schimpf et al (33) reported an improved ventilatory response to maximal and submaximal exercise, respectively, after conversion of chronic atrial fibrillation to sinus rhythm. However, most patients presented with an underlying heart disease, and no mechanistic implications were reported.…”

“…Restoration of SR implies several important benefits. It has been reported that conversion of CAF improves symptoms and functional capacity (3,4,27), and prevents and corrects myocardial damage (15,28). However, antiarrhythmic therapy may be associated with undesirable and even dangerous adverse effects.…”
