Low-Voltage Ablation in Persistent Atrial Fibrillation

Importance Pulmonary vein isolation remains the foundational ablation approach for atrial fibrillation (AF), yet outcomes in persistent AF remain suboptimal. Targeting low-voltage zones identified by electroanatomical mapping offers a promising strategy for enhancing ablation suc...

Comparison of Methods for Incorporating Related Data When Developing Clinical Prediction Models: A Simulation Study

Clinical Prediction Models (CPMs) compute an individual's risk of an outcome, given a set of predictors. Guidance states CPMs should be constructed using data sampled from the target population. However, researchers might have access to ancillary data sets from different time poi...
