In a sub-analysis restricted to paroxysmal AF patients, pre-procedural time spent in AF showed a trend toward an association with AF recurrence (HR 1.08 per 10% increase, 95% CI 1.00–1.18, P = 0.058); this model was adjusted for age, sex, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes mellitus, and thyroid dysfunction (see Supplementary material online , Table S3 ).

In patients using antiarrhythmic drugs (n = 181), the association showed a similar direction but did not reach statistical significance (HR 1.05 per 10% increase, 0.97–1.13, P = 0.239) (see Supplementary material online , Table S8 ).
