Failure of Plasma Atrial Natriuretic Peptide Levels to Increase During Exercise in Patients with Chronic Atrial Fibrillation

It is generally accepted that plasma atrial natriuretic peptide release occurs secondary to atrial stretch. The influence of coordinated atrial contraction (AC) upon this process is not fully appreciated. The aim of the study was to determine the importance of coordinated AC upon peripheral atrial n...
