Efficacy of gemfibrozil in the primary prevention of atrial fibrillation in a large randomized controlled trialA Selcuk Adabag
Division of Cardiology, Center for Chronic Disease Outcomes Research, Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Minneapolis, MN, USA
Am Heart J 157:913-8. 2009..The objective of this study was to investigate whether the PPARalpha activator gemfibrozil prevents or delays the development of AF in patients with coronary heart disease...
Relation of heart rate parameters during exercise test to sudden death and all-cause mortality in asymptomatic menA Selcuk Adabag
Division of Biostatistics, School of Public Health, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA
Am J Cardiol 101:1437-43. 2008..In conclusion, middle-aged men without clinical CHD who stopped exercise before reaching 85% of maximal HR had a higher risk of sudden death. Other exercise HR parameters and exercise duration predicted all-cause mortality...
Sudden cardiac death: epidemiology and risk factorsA Selcuk Adabag
Division of Cardiology, Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Minneapolis, MN 55417, USA
Nat Rev Cardiol 7:216-25. 2010..In this article, we review the incidence, temporal trends, and triggers of SCD, and its demographic, clinical, and genetic risk factors. We also discuss the available evidence supporting the use of public-access defibrillators...
Etiology of sudden death in the community: results of anatomical, metabolic, and genetic evaluationA Selcuk Adabag
Division of Epidemiology and Community Health, School of Public Health, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN 55417, USA
Am Heart J 159:33-9. 2010..Identifying persons at risk for sudden cardiac death (SCD) is challenging. A comprehensive evaluation may reveal clues about the clinical, anatomical, genetic, and metabolic risk factors for SCD...
Efficacy of N-acetylcysteine in preventing renal injury after heart surgery: a systematic review of randomized trialsA Selcuk Adabag

Pacing Clin Electrophysiol 34:331-8. 2011..Little is known about the long-term pacing and mortality outcomes and the temporal trends of these patients...
Electrocardiographic markers of cardioversion success in patients with atrial fibrillationBasel Al Aloul
Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, Veterans Affairs Medical Center, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN 55455, USA
South Med J 102:885-9. 2009..We sought to determine whether the type of atrial arrhythmia (AF versus AFL) and the characteristics of the atrial fibrillatory waves (fine versus coarse) on the surface ECG would help predict post DCCV outcomes...
Sudden death after myocardial infarctionA Selcuk Adabag
Division of Cardiology, Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA
JAMA 300:2022-9. 2008..Risk stratification for sudden cardiac death after MI commonly relies on baseline characteristics and little is known about the relationship between recurrent ischemia or heart failure and sudden cardiac death...
