Single-channel activity and expression of atrial L-type Ca2+ channels in patients with latent hyperthyroidism

Patients with "latent hyperthyroidism" (suppressed thyroid-stimulating hormone and normal circulating thyroid hormones) are at risk to develop atrial fibrillation. In animal models, hyperthyroidism is associated with increased cardiac L-type Ca2+ current.
