    Quality of life (QOL) at three years significantly improved following catheter ablation (CA) for persistent atrial fibrillation (PsAFib), according to a secondary analysis of patients in the CAPLA clinical trial published in JACC: Clinical Electrophysiology.
  • Thrombotic Events In ATTR-CM Patients Linked to Primary LA Cardiopathy
    Primary left atrial (LA) cardiopathy appears to be linked to the high risk of thrombotic events (TE) in patients with transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) independent of atrial fibrillation (AFib), CHA2DS2-VASc score and LA dilatation.
