Primary composite endpoint was recurrence of AF (including unsuccessful electrical cardioversion, no spontaneous conversion and no electrical cardioversion) or premature study discontinuation. Main safety endpoint (MSE) was occurrence of thyroid\u2010, hepatic\u2010, pulmonary\u2010, neurologic\u2010, skin\u2010, eye\u2010, or gastrointestinal\u2010specific events, or premature study drug discontinuation following an adverse event.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:italic>Results:<\/jats:italic>\n                    Median treatment duration was 7 months. The primary composite endpoint was 75.1 and 58.8% with dronedarone and amiodarone, respectively, at 12 months (hazard ratio [HR] 1.59; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.28\u20131.98; P &lt; 0.0001), mainly driven by AF recurrence with dronedarone compared with amiodarone (63.5 vs 42.0%). AF recurrence after successful cardioversion was 36.5 and 24.3% with dronedarone and amiodarone, respectively. Premature drug discontinuation tended to be less frequent with dronedarone (10.4 vs 13.3%). MSE was 39.3 and 44.5% with dronedarone and amiodarone, respectively, at 12 months (HR = 0.80; 95% CI 0.60\u20131.07; P = 0.129), and mainly driven by fewer thyroid, neurologic, skin, and ocular events in the dronedarone group.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:italic>Conclusion:<\/jats:italic>\n                    In this short\u2010term study, dronedarone was less effective than amiodarone in decreasing AF recurrence, but had a better safety profile, specifically with regard to thyroid and neurologic events and a lack of interaction with oral anticoagulants.\n                    <jats:italic>(J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol, Vol. 21, pp. 597\u2010605, June 2010)<\/jats:italic>\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1540-8167.2010.01764.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,4,7]],"date-time":"2010-04-07T00:30:06Z","timestamp":1270600206000},"page":"597-605","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":308,"title":["A Short\u2010Term, Randomized, Double\u2010Blind, Parallel\u2010Group Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Dronedarone versus Amiodarone in Patients with Persistent Atrial Fibrillation: The DIONYSOS Study"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"JEAN\u2010YVES","family":"LE HEUZEY","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"GAETANO M.","family":"DE FERRARI","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"DAVID","family":"RADZIK","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"MASSIMO","family":"SANTINI","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"JUNREN","family":"ZHU","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"JEAN\u2010MARC","family":"DAVY","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,5,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.CIR.98.10.946"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0002-9343(02)01236-6"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(97)05281-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0735-1097(97)00220-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.298.11.1312"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.CIR.100.22.2276"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1540-8167.2006.00583.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1358\/dot.2006.42.2.925346"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005344-200205000-00008"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1540-8167.2008.01251.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0195-668X(03)00321-X"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa054686"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ahj.2008.06.010"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa0803778"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_16_2","volume-title":"Ethical principles for medical research involving human subjects","author":"World Medical Association General Assembly","year":"2004"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa041705"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/eurheartj\/ehp055"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_19_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.STR.0000181115.59173.42"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_20_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacc.2004.06.080"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_21_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/eurheartj\/ehp100"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_22_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4065\/84.3.234"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_23_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9343(91)90187-3"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_24_2","first-page":"159","article-title":"Amiodarone et dysthyro\u00efdes.
