    PMID: 39217615
  
  
          Background: Guidelines have suggested screening for atrial fibrillation to enable early treatment and avoid downstream negative clinical events. We aimed to determine whether atrial fibrillation screening potentially enhanced by NT-proBNP...

    PMID: 38604586
  
  
          Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with the development of dementia, and observational studies have shown that oral anticoagulation and catheter ablation reduce dementia risk. However, such studies did not...

          Objective: Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation effectively reduces symptomatic burden. However, its long-term effect on mortality and stroke is unclear. We investigated if patients with atrial fibrillation who undergo catheter...

    PMID: 36349968
  
  
          Aims: Previous studies on the cost-effectiveness of screening for atrial fibrillation (AF) are based on assumptions of long-term clinical effects. The STROKESTOP study, which randomised 27 975 persons aged 75/76...
