Digoxin and mortality in atrial fibrillation: a prospective cohort study

TL;DR: The results suggest that long-term therapy with digoxin is an independent risk factor for death in patients with AF without CHF.

Outcomes in a Warfarin-Treated Population With Atrial Fibrillation.

TL;DR: Well-managed warfarin therapy is associated with a low risk of complications and is still a valid alternative for prophylaxis of AF-associated stroke.

Prognostic value of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia and the potential role of amiodarone treatment in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: assessment in an unselected non-referral based patient population

TL;DR: In an unselected patient population with HCM, isolated, non-repetitive bursts of NSVT were not associated with adverse prognosis and so this arrhythmia does not appear to justify chronic antiarrhythmic treatment.

The association between kidney function and major bleeding in older adults with atrial fibrillation starting warfarin treatment: population based observational study.

TL;DR: The results support the need for careful consideration of the bleeding risk relative to kidney function when assessing the risk-benefit ratio of warfarin treatment in people with chronic kidney disease and atrial fibrillation, particularly in the first 30 days of treatment.
