Regional and temporal progression of atrial remodeling in angiotensin II mediated atrial fibrillation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with electrical and structural remodeling in the atria; however, the regional and temporal progression of atrial remodeling is incompletely understood. The objective of this study was to investigate the regional and temporal progression of atrial remodeling leading to changes in AF susceptibility in angiotensin II (Ang II) mediated hypertension. Mice were infused with Ang II for 3, 10 or 21 days. AF susceptibility and atrial electrophysiology were studied in vivo using intracardiac electrophysiology. Right and left atrial myocyte electrophysiology was studied using patch-clamping. Atrial fibrosis was assessed histologically. P wave duration and atrial effective refractory period increased progressively from 3 to 21 days of Ang II. AF susceptibility tended to be increased at 10 days of Ang II and was elevated at 21 days of Ang II. Left, but not right, atrial AP upstroke velocity and Na+ current were reduced at 10 and 21 days of Ang II. Left atrial action potential (AP) duration increased progressively from 3 to 21 days of Ang II due to reductions in repolarizing K+ current. Right atrial AP prolongation was increased only after 21 days of Ang II. Left and right atrial fibrosis developed progressively from 3 to 21 days, but increases were larger in the left atrium. In conclusion, Ang II mediated atrial electrical and structural remodeling develop earlier and more extensively in the left atrium compared to the right atrium, providing insight into how atrial remodeling leads to enhanced AF susceptibility in Ang II mediated hypertension.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
