Blood lipid (fat) levels in atrial fibrillation
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at fats (lipids) in the blood of people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) compared to people with other heart conditions but no atrial fibrillation. The goal is to find patterns that may help understand the condition better and improve diagnosis or treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- You must be able to give informed consent.
- You have atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) or are a participant without atrial fibrillation but with other heart conditions.
- A blood sample from you must be available for testing.

This study looks for unique metabolic patterns in people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). The goal is to develop personalized prevention strategies by comparing these patterns between patients and healthy volunteers.
This study looks at fat around the heart using CT scans to see if it is different in people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) compared to those with normal heart rhythm. If you've had a heart CT, this research might help doctors better understand and treat heart rhythm problems.
This study tests a new blood thinner to prevent strokes and blood clots in people with atrial fibrillation (a common heart rhythm problem). You may qualify if you have atrial fibrillation and at least one risk factor for stroke, or if you've never taken a blood thinner before.
This study tracks patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) over time to better understand the condition and improve care. You may be asked to share health information and attend follow-up visits.
This trial tests a blood pressure monitor that can also detect atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). You may join if you are 22 or older, have an average-sized arm, and either have been diagnosed with AF or have never had it — as long as you don't have a pacemaker or defibrillator.
This study looks at stroke risk and blood clotting in people who have just been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation (AFib) that is not caused by a heart valve problem, and who have not yet taken blood thinners. It aims to better understand how blood clots form in this condition.
