Galectin-3 level predicts response to ablation and outcomes in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation and systolic heart failure.

Galectin-3 level predicts response to ablation and outcomes in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation and systolic heart failure.

<h4>Introduction</h4>Mechanisms of maintenance of both atrial fibrillation and structural left ventricular disease are known to include fibrosis. Galectin-3, a biomarker of fibrosis, is elevated both in patients with heart failure and persistent atrial fibrillation. We sought to find whe...
