EHRA 2025 - Outcomes from model screening for atrial fibrillation (AF) show the combination of a risk prediction model and long-term electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring is superior to standard of care in detecting new cases of AF in a high-risk population aged 65 years or older. In the risk prediction model arm, the incidence of AF after six months was significantly higher than the incidence in… View more

Complete heart block (CHB) is a life-threatening arrhythmia, yet current electrocardiography (ECG)-based methods for risk stratification have limited predictive power. A new study has detailed the development and validation of a novel artificial intelligence-enhanced ECG (AI-ECG) model that can accurately predict the risk of incident CHB, significantly outperforming traditional risk markers.¹The… View more

How can a causal machine learning framework act as a decision-supporting tool to select patients for left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO)?In this short interview, Dr Xiaoxi Yao (Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, US) discusses a study investigating the causal forest model learning framework to identify characteristics in atrial fibrillation patients which would benefit most from LAAO. Dr Yao explains… View more

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
