Atrial fibrillation in athletes – CMAJ

Posted: Published on January 13th, 2020

Too much exercise can cause atrial fibrillation Large observational studies have shown that a sedentary lifestyle increases the risk of atrial fibrillation fivefold.1,2 However, high-intensity aerobic exercise, especially for men, also increases the risk of atrial fibrillation at a threshold of more than 15002000 lifetime hours.3 Evidence is less clear for women.3 In the majority of athletes, atrial fibrillation is paroxysmal and symptomatic.2,3 High-intensity aerobic exercise causes increased hemodynamic stress and generates free radicals.4 The atria appear to be particularly susceptible, with resultant dilatation, chronic inflammation and fibrosis.24 Autonomic modulation also plays a role, and athletes commonly describe triggers that are vagally (sleep, meals) or adrenergically (exercise) mediated.2,3 It is important not to miss conditions associated with atrial fibrillation, including cardiomyopathies, channelopathies, pre-excitation, hyperthyroidism and alcohol or drug misuse.2,3 Energy supplements and performance enhancers should also be considered.2,3 Data on stroke risk among athletes are limited, but the use of thromboembolic risk scores (CHADS-65) is recommended.2,3,5 In nonrandomized studies, detraining has been shown to reduce atrial fibrillation, although athletes are often not willing to do this.2 Anti-arrhythmic medications are limited by bradycardia, impaired performance, long-term adverse effects and risk of ventricular arrhythmias during exercise.2,3 High-impact sports are a contraindication to anticoagulation.2,3 Data remain limited to small, nonrandomized studies, but ablation is often the preferred option for symptomatic athletes.2,3 Despite the distinct pathophysiology between symptomatic athletes and nonathletes, success rates appear similar to those of nonathletes: about 60% for the first procedure and > 80% for the second.2,3 Athletes not meeting CHADS-65 criteria must be informed of the need for anticoagulation for at least 2 months owing to the prothrombotic effect of catheter ablation.2,5 Continue reading

Inside Montel Williams’ journey from long-undiagnosed patient to MS activist – Media News – MM&M – Medical Marketing and Media

Posted: Published on January 13th, 2020

Given his level of education, the resources at his disposal and his media celebrity, one would place Montel Williams near the bottom of any list of individuals likely to endure a missed diagnosis for two full decades. And yet there he was during the bulk of the 1980s and 90s, enduring pain in his lower extremities and temporary blindness in one eye as doctor after doctor failed to diagnose him with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. That he lived like this while, among other things, serving in the Navy, hosting a syndicated TV talk show and becoming a father to four children, ranks as a fairly amazing achievement in retrospect.
