Atrial Fibrillation Interventions on Circulating BDNF

common.study.values.description

“Circulating BDNF in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation Undergoing Catheter Ablation or Exercise Training”

The main purpose of this project is to determine the impact of atrial fibrillation interventions (catheter ablation and exercise training) on circulating BDNF concentrations in patients with atrial fibrillation. It also seeks to determine if there is a relation between circulating BDNF concentrations and mental health (depression severity, quality of life and symptoms) among those undergoing interventions for atrial fibrillation catheter ablation or exercise training.
