Aims Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) is now a mainstream procedure although
long-term outcomes are uncertain. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of …

Objectives: The aim of this study was to examine the effect of continuous positive airway
pressure (CPAP) therapy on atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence in patients with obstructive …

The usefulness of peak atrial longitudinal strain (PALS) in identifying patients at high risk of
atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has been investigated …

Abstract Aims The Atrial Fibrillation Ablation Pilot Study is a prospective registry designed to
describe the clinical epidemiology of patients undergoing an atrial fibrillation (AFib) ablation …

Background Outpatient ambulatory cardiac rhythm monitoring is a routine part of the
management of patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF). Current systems are limited …

Real‐Time Contact Force Sensing for Pulmonary Vein Isolation Introduction The additional
benefit of contact force (CF) technology during pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for paroxysmal …

Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common arrhythmia, is a growing epidemic with substantial
morbidity and economic burden. Mechanisms underlying vulnerability to AF remain poorly …

Background: Circumferential pulmonary vein isolation (CPVI) is increasingly performed for
the treatment of symptomatic drug-refractory paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Long-term data …

Background Despite improvement in treatment strategies of atrial fibrillation (AF), a
considerable number of patients still experience recurrence of atrial tachyarrhythmia (ATA) …

Background Although 24-hour Holter monitoring is routinely used for patients with suspected
paroxysmal arrhythmia, its sensitivity in detecting such arrhythmias is insufficient. Methods …
