In patients with HFmrEF and AF, CA of AF could reduce both HF hospitalization and all-cause mortality as compared with those with MT. A significant improvement in LVEF and decrease in LA diameter were also observed in the CA group. Early rhythm control with CA should be taken into consideration in patients with HFmrEF and AF.
