Clinical and procedural characteristics were compared between each gender. The primary efficacy endpoint was the 1\u2010year single procedure freedom from atrial arrhythmia off anti\u2010arrhythmic drugs. Women undergoing catheter ablation procedures were older than men (P &lt; 0.001). The duration of AF and associated co\u2010morbidities were similar between both genders. Single procedure drug\u2010free atrial arrhythmia recurrence occurred in 53% of the cohort with no difference based on gender (men = 54%, women = 53%; P = 1.0). Procedural (P = 0.04), fluoroscopic (P = 0.02), and ablation times (P = 0.003) were shorter in women compared to men. Periprocedural complications and postablation improvement in quality of life were similar between men and women.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Women undergoing a first\u2010ever persistent AF ablation procedure were older but had similar clinical outcomes and complications when compared with men.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jce.13051","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,7,27]],"date-time":"2016-07-27T05:33:26Z","timestamp":1469597606000},"page":"1259-1263","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Persistent Atrial Fibrillation Ablation in Females: Insight from the MAGIC\u2010AF Trial"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"27","author":[{"given":"SHELDON M.","family":"SINGH","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Schulich Heart Program, Sunnybrook Health Science Center, Faculty of Medicine University of Toronto  Toronto Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"ANDRE","family":"D'AVILA","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Helmsley Cardiac Arrhythmia Service Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai  New York New York USA"},{"name":"Instituto de Pesquisa em Arritmia Cardiaca \u2010 Hospital Cardiologico  Florianopolis SC Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"ARASH","family":"ARYANA","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Mercy General Hospital and Dignity Health Heart &amp; Vascular Institute  Sacramento California USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"YOUNG\u2010HOON","family":"KIM","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cardiovascular Division Korea University Medical Center  Seoul Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J.
