Atrial fibrillation (AF) has a complex genetic architecture, and a new study suggests that integrating information on common, rare, and somatic genetic variants can significantly improve risk prediction. Researchers developed an integrated genomic model (IGM-AF) that, when combined with clinical factors, enhanced the stratification of individuals at risk for incident AF.¹This cohort study… View more

A structured lifestyle and risk factor management programme can significantly improve freedom from arrhythmia recurrence at 12 months for patients undergoing a first-time catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF), according to the results of the ARREST-AF trial.¹˒²While observational studies have previously suggested a link between risk factor modification and better ablation outcomes, this… View more
