Temporary Suppression of Cardiac Ganglionated Plexi Leads to Long‐Term Suppression of Atrial Fibrillation: Evidence of Early Autonomic Intervention to Break the Vicious Cycle of “AF Begets AF”

BACKGROUND: Botulinum toxin (BTX), temporarily suppressing cholinergic transmission (<3 weeks), has been reported to suppress atrial fibrillation (AF) for ≥1 year. We aimed to investigate the mechanism underlying long‐term suppression of AF caused by injecting BTX into major atrial ganglionated p...
