Abstract
fibrillation (AF) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Join us on a journey that unravels the mysteries of molecular intricacies, delves into advanced imaging techniques, and sheds light on therapeutic pathways. Unveiling the role of cardiac amyloidosis, particularly sub-clinical isolated cardiac amyloidosis (ICA), the narrative unfolds the heightened risk of AF in the elderly. State-of-the-art imaging techniques like cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) and molecular imaging step into the spotlight, unraveling diagnostic and prognostic nuances of AF and HFpEF. Embarking on the molecular voyage, the article navigates through next-generation sequencing and comprehensive genomic profiling, shedding light on genetic alterations shaping the AF-HFpEF landscape. This molecular compass lays the groundwork for personalized medicine, illuminating pathways to identify therapeutic bullseyes and biomarkers. In the realm of medical strategies, the discussion homes in on the promising notes struck by SGLT2 inhibitors, particularly dapagliflozin, orchestrating a reduction in AF burden. Characters like spironolactone and dronedarone make appearances, each weaving a distinct tale, revealing their potential roles in steering the ship for AF- HFpEF patients. The subplot involving obesity in HFpEF unfolds, with the LEGACY study portraying the benefits of weight reduction. The pivotal intervention of catheter ablation emerges as the hero, boasting positive outcomes in reducing hospitalization rates and overall mortality for AF-HFpEF patients. However, cautionary tales echo about its impact on left atrial function, adding layers of complexity that beckon careful consideration and monitoring. Amidst the narrative, critical discussions unfold about the limitations of current research, echoing the need to define acute heart failure, refine imaging techniques, and tailor management strategies. The narrative passionately advocates for a personalized touch in addressing AF-HFpEF, recognizing the unique blend of clinical and molecular personas. In essence, this review paints a vivid mural of AF-HFpEF, skillfully bridging the realms of molecular intricacies and the artistry of clinical management.
