Association of left atrial function with frailty: The Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities ( <scp>ARIC</scp> ) study
Worse LA function is associated with higher incidence of frailty and exhaustion component independent of LA size and left ventricular function. Future studies are needed to elucidate the underlying mechanisms that drive the observed association.
