Obesity is associated with long-term outcome of catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy

Patients with AF and DCM with overweight or obesity exhibited worse long-term outcomes in recurrent AF than normal-weight patients. However, overweight patients showed the most benefit in cardiac function after ablation.
