Is indexed left atrial volume superior to left atrial diameter in predicting nonvalvular atrial fibrillation recurrence after successful cardioversion : a prospective study?
This is the first prospective study to show that larger iLAV, as a more accurate measure of LA remodeling than anteroposterior diameter, is strongly and independently associated with a higher risk of AFib recurrence after CV.
Enterally delivered GLU may be a preferable fuel for the enterocytes and enhance the mucosal protein synthesis. GLU probably can substitute for GLN in supplementation to an enteral diet regarding many roles GLN plays in the intestinal mucosa under stress situations.
