  • The duration and frequency of episodes of atrial fibrillation (AF) and the longitudinal history of this arrhythmia can vary markedly across patients. The currently accepted scheme for AF classification is based on temporal rhythm-based patterns. In this Review, the authors discuss the advantages and limitations of this categorization, highlighting gaps in knowledge that are opportunities to re-examine the current scheme and may lead to future improvements in AF classification.

  • Women with atrial fibrillation (AF) generally experience worse symptoms, poorer quality of life, and have higher risk of stroke and death than men with AF. In this Review, Ko et al. summarize the evidence on sex-specific differences in the utilization and outcomes of treatments for AF, including rate-control and rhythm-control strategies, and stroke-prevention therapy.

  • Differences between women and men with atrial fibrillation have received far less attention in recent years than sex-specific differences in coronary heart disease and stroke. In this Review, Ko et al. discuss sex-specific differences in the incidence, prevalence, risk factors, and pathophysiology of atrial fibrillation, and the clinical presentation and prognosis of patients with this prevalent arrhythmia.

  • In an increasingly digital world, widespread access to smartphones and mobile technology might be harnessed to improve cardiovascular disease prevention, management, and rehabilitation. In this Review, Neubeck et al. discuss the burgeoning market of health-related mobile apps, and question whether they are evidence-based and beneficial to individuals with cardiovascular disease, and what design features might encourage behavioural change.
