Atrial fibrillation (AF) is one of the most common clinical arrhythmia. In recent years, basic researches on AF have made a great progress. Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) has been widely used as a nonpharmacological treatment for AF. However, recurrence rate of AF is high even after RFCA. So we need to find the influencing factors of the recurrence of AF early. Choosing patients who have better indications can improve the success rate of RFCA and reduce recurrence rate.
