Abstract: Background: Renal dysfunction was reported to be associated with a higher recurrence rate after electric cardioversion of atrial fibrillation (AF). The aim of this study was to investigate the associations between renal function, atrial substrate properties and outcome of catheter ablation in paroxysmal AF patients. Methods and Results:A total of 232 paroxysmal AF patients that underwent catheter ablation were enrolled in the study. The estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was calculated using the Cockcr… Show more

“…Sensitivity analysis was performed to find the origin of heterogeneity. After removing the study by Chao et al [5], whose blanking period was 2 months, there was no significant heterogeneity across the studies (p = 0.42, I 2 = 0%). However, the overall outcome remained the same (HR = 1.61, 95% CI 1.26-2.05, p = 0.0001).…”

“…Among them, 4 [2,[12][13][14] did not mention AF recurrence after a single catheter ablation for CKD and non-CKD patients, 1 [1] baseline data unavailable and 1 [15] did not have enough sample size of patients with and without CKD. Consequently, 4 [4,5,9,10] observational studies were finally included in our meta-analysis (Fig. 1).…”
