Temporal patterns of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation following DDDR pacemaker implantation.

TL;DR: The hypothesis that atrial fibrillation episodes occur in clusters over time and that these episodes are not randomly distributed in individual patients is tested and has implications for the selection of study end points in AF clinical trials.

Gender-related differences in presentation, treatment and long-term outcome in patients with first-diagnosed atrial fibrillation and structurally normal heart: The Belgrade atrial fibrillation study

TL;DR: Gender differences are evident in atrial fibrillation, with male patients were less asymptomatic or more frequently developed persistent AF and Male patients were also at higher risk of tachycardiomyopathy, suggesting that these patients require more attention to rate control during follow-up.

Mechanism and ablation of arrhythmia following total cavopulmonary connection.

TL;DR: Arrhythmia mechanism post total cavopulmonary connection is highly varied, encompassing simple and more complex substrates, documentation of which facilitates a strategic approach to invasive arrhythmia management.

Left atrial appendage morphology and thromboembolic risk after catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation

TL;DR: AF recurrence and higher LAA takeoff are associated with thromboembolism after AF ablation, while LAA morphology is not, and these results may have an implication for improved postablation management.
