Sport practice and the risk of lone atrial fibrillation: a case-control study.

Int. J. Cardiol.. 2006 Apr;108(3):332-7, PMID: 15963583

Lone atrial fibrillation (LAF) is characterized by the presence of atrial fibrillation in the absence of structural heart disease or other identifiable cause of arrhythmia. In a recent study, we reported sport practice to be more frequent in LAF patients than in the general population. The aim of the study was to determine the association between sport practice and the prevalence of LAF in men.
