Comparative study of efficacy and safety of low-dose diltiazem or betaxolol in combination with digoxin to control ventricular rate in chronic atrial fibrillation: randomized crossover study

TL;DR: The study suggested that combination therapy of low-dose betaxolol with digoxin was more superior toLow-dose diltiazem with dig toxin in controlling ventricular rate and reducing rate-pressure products and improving exercise capacity have been well maintained even after 7 months of medication with each combination therapy.

Prevalence and types of pitfall in the assessment of mitral isthmus linear conduction block.

TL;DR: Every fifth assessment of bidirectional block across mitral isthmus linear lesion using differential coronary sinus and left atrial appendage pacing techniques encounters a pitfall, which can lead to erroneous clinical diagnosis of block or absence of block.

Focal impulse and rotor modulation as a stand-alone procedure for the treatment of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation: A within-patient controlled study with implanted cardiac monitoring.

TL;DR: It is suggested that biatrial ablation of localized patient-specific sources alone, as detected by this method, is not sufficient to reduce paroxysmal AF burden in the majority of patients.
