Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Christine Rutlen's research focuses on cardiovascular events and disease, particularly in the context of COVID-19 and atrial fibrillation. She has investigated the association between a history of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and earlier recurrence after cardioversion compared to primary persistent atrial fibrillation. Her work also examines the risk of cardiovascular events following COVID-19, including a double-cohort study. Rutlen has explored the impact of preadmission metformin use on mortality in diabetic patients hospitalized with COVID-19. Her research interests extend to the effects of aging and sex steroid deficiency on the skeleton in murine models and the safety of endurance exercise. Rutlen has a publication record of 15 articles, with an h-index of 4 and 180 citations. She has collaborated with researchers Tushar Tarun, Joshua M. Hagood, Jackson Mosley, and Srikanth Vallurupalli at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
