All participants had a normal heart health when first enrolled, and were subjected to blood and urine tests to assess the capacity of their kidneys to eliminate specific toxins and proteins from the body.<\/p>\n<p>The results demonstrated that people with a deteriorated kidney function at the beginning of the study had a higher probability of having\u00a0atrial fibrillation towards the end. Those who had abnormal findings on blood examination had a two-times higher risk of having an abnormal heart rhythm\u00a0while those who did worse on the urine test were 76%\u00a0more likely.<\/p>\n<p>The association was present even after adjusting for other risk factors for atrial fibrillation, including diabetes, tobacco consumption and a history of heart diseases.<\/p>\n<p>The researchers explained that kidneys regulate the blood levels of several nutrients required to maintain proper heart function, and also maintain\u00a0a steady blood volume.<\/p>\n<p>In view of this, it was suggested that doctors managing patients with kidney disease should also watch out for potential heart diseases. In addition, people with kidney disease should also follow a heart-healthy lifestyle\u00a0to minimize their risk for heart diseases.<\/p>\n<p><em>Source: Clinical Journal of American Society of Nephrology<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-28289\" src=\"https:\/\/www.1mg.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/rsz_shutterstock_360933155.jpg\" alt=\"1mg\" title=\"Poor Kidney Function May Be a Cause Of Abnormal Heartbeat\" width=\"630\" height=\"380\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[116,124,127],"class_list":["post-28288","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-1mg-news","tag-gastrointestinal-disorders","tag-healthy-eating-vitamins-minerals-nutrients","tag-heart-health"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.1 -
