Cryoballoon vs. radiofrequency catheter ablation: insights from NOrwegian randomized study of PERSistent Atrial Fibrillation (NO-PERSAF study)
Shi, Libin; Rossvoll, Ole; Tande, Pål Morten; Schuster, Peter Moritz; Solheim, Eivind; Chen, Jian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Aims Pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is still regarded as a cornerstone for treatment of persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). This study evaluated the effectiveness of PVI performed with cryoballoon ablation (CBA) in ... -
The impacts of contact force, power and application time on ablation effect indicated by serial measurements of impedance drop in both conventional and high-power short-duration ablation settings of atrial fibrillation
Shi, Libin; Wang, Yu-Chuan; Chu, Songyun; Bortoli, Alessandro De; Schuster, Peter Moritz; Solheim, Eivind; Chen, Jian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background: This study aimed to clarify the interrelationship and additive effects of contact force (CF), power and application time in both conventional and high-power short-duration (HPSD) settings. Methods: Among 38 ... -
The NORwegian atrial fibrillation self-SCREENing (NORSCREEN) trial: rationale and design of a randomized controlled trial
Boskovic, Miroslav; Jortveit, Jarle; Haraldsen, Marius Blørstad; Berge, Trygve; Engdahl, Johan; Løchen, Maja-Lisa; Schuster, Peter Moritz; Sandberg, Edvard Liljedahl; Grimsmo, Jostein; Atar, Dan; Anfinsen, Ole-Gunnar; Pripp, Are Hugo; Grenne, Bjørnar Leangen; Halvorsen, Sigrun (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)Aims Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common arrhythmia, and many cases of AF may be undiagnosed. Whether screening for AF and subsequent treatment if AF is detected can improve long-term outcome remains an unsettled ... -
Short and long-term effects of single and multiple sessions of electroconvulsive therapy on brain gray matter volumes
Brancati, Giulio Emilio; Brekke, Njål; Bartsch, Hauke; Sørhaug, Ole Johan Evjenth; Ousdal, Olga Therese; Hammar, Åsa Karin; Schuster, Peter Moritz; Ødegaard, Ketil Joachim; Kessler, Ute; Oltedal, Leif (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background: Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) has been shown to induce broadly distributed cortical and subcortical volume increases, more prominently in the amygdala and the hippocampus. Structural changes after one ECT ... -
Thawing plateau time indicating the duration of phase transition from ice to water is the strongest predictor for long-term durable pulmonary vein isolation after cryoballoon ablation for atrial fibrillation—Data from the index and repeat procedures
Shi, Libin; Wollner, Kristian; Chu, Song-Yun; Wang, Yu-Chuan; Solheim, Eivind; Schuster, Peter Moritz; Chen, Jian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Introduction: This study aimed to clarify the relationship between the durability of pulmonary vein (PV) isolation and the time of phase transition from ice to water indicated by thawing plateau time in a cryoballoon ...
