Men and women’s hearts don’t beat the same: Epicardial mapping of Bachmann’s bundle
We observed sex-related differences in the electrical remodeling of BB in AF patients. Women have a higher proportion of low voltage potentials, and more abnormal potential morphologies compared to men. These findings may reflect sex-specific differences in the underlying substrate of AF at BB.
