Atrial fibrillation (AF) and coronary artery disease (CAD) are highly prevalent cardiovascular
conditions. The coexistence of both diseases is common as they share similar risk factors …

Aims Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a global health problem with high morbidity and mortality.
Catheter ablation (CA) can reduce AF burden and symptoms, but AF recurrence (AFr) …

Objective Early atrial arrhythmia recurrence following atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation is
common. Current guidelines promulgate a 3-month blanking period. We hypothesize that …

Aims Different disease processes can combine to cause atrial fibrillation (AF). Their
contribution to recurrent AF after ablation in patients is not known. Cardiovascular processes …

Background Early recurrence of atrial tachyarrhythmia (ERAT) is associated with ablation-
induced proarrhythmogenic inflammation; however, existing studies used intermittent …

Background: Although recurrence rates after radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) in
patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) remain high, there are a limited number of novel, high …

Ablation of atrial fibrillation is one of the most widely applied invasive procedures in
cardiovascular medicine, and populations with atrial fibrillation continuously rise …

Introduction Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a complex and multi-factorial rhythm disorder. Catheter
ablation is widely used for the management of AF. However, it is limited by relapse of the …

Introduction Recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) within the blanking period after catheter
ablation (CA) is traditionally classified as a transient and benign event. However, recent …

The identification of patients prone to atrial fibrillation (AF) relapse after catheter ablation is
essential for better patient selection and risk stratification. The current prospective cohort …
