Long working hours as a risk factor for atrial fibrillation: a multi-cohort study
ConclusionIndividuals who worked long hours were more likely to develop atrial fibrillation than those working standard hours.

Prognostic impact of supraventricular premature complexes in community-based health checkups: The Ibaraki Prefectural Health Study
Conclusion The presence of SVPCs in 12-lead electrocardiograms was a strong predictor of AF development, and associated with increased risk of CVD in general population.

The Atrial Fibrillation Ablation Pilot Study: an European Survey on Methodology and results of catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation conducted by the European Heart Rhythm Association
Conclusion The AFib Ablation Pilot Study provided crucial information on the epidemiology, management, and outcomes of catheter ablation of AFib in a real-world setting. The methods used to assess the success of the procedure appeared at least suboptimal. Even in this context, the 12-month success rate appears to be somewhat lower to the one reported clinical trials.

Prognostic significance of prolonged PR interval in the general population
Conclusion In the middle-aged general population, prolonged PR interval normalizes in a substantial proportion of subjects during the time course, and it is not associated with an increased risk of all-cause or cardiovascular mortality.

A new look at atrial fibrillation: lessons learned from drugs, pacing, and ablation therapies
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia and among the leading causes of stroke and heart failure in Western populations. Despite the increasing size of clinical trials assessing the efficacy and safety of AF therapies, achieved outcomes have not always matched expectations. Considering that AF is a symptom of many possible underlying diseases, clinical research for this arrhythmia should take into account their respective pathophysiology. Accordingly, the definition of the study populations to be included should rely on the established as well as on the new classifications of AF and take advantage from a dif...
