Recent research in the field of brain infarction discovered 2 new marker (bio) help quite accurately and at an early stage diagnosis of atrial fibrillation (or differently fibrillation atria). And it is a violation of the heart rate is now one of the most common and significantly increase the risk of stroke.
Scientists at the University of Birmingham 2 years worked with a group of volunteers (700 people). And consider such clinical risk, such as age and sex of the subjects, body mass index, the function kidney, hypertension, history of stroke, and ischemic attacks, heart failure.
In the process of research and found 2 new biomarker, is the relationship with atrial fibrillation. BNP - secreted by the heart of the natriuretic peptide. And FGF-23 protein, responsible for the regulation of phosphate (Fibroblast Growth Factor-23).
Dr. Winnie Feeling, led the research team, said in a published report that the greatest likelihood of blood clots and stroke are just the patients with atrial fibrillation atria. But the disease is often diagnosed only after as a man had a stroke. In order to avoid this, it should promptly begin receiving anticoagulant blood thinners. And detection of biomarkers just help in the early diagnosis of adverse cardiac conditions.
As for the symptoms that require a comprehensive survey, it is necessary to pay attention to chronic fatigue and any inability to whatever physical exercise, shortness of breath, persistent weakness and dizziness, rapid and irregular pulse, pain in the chest. All this (together or separately) - a reason for medical consultation at least.
