* Atrial fibrillation occurred in 24.2 percent of the study population, including 4.8 percent in whom it developed for the first time. The incidence of atrial fibrillation after randomization was significantly lower in the dual-chamber group (hazard ratio, 0.79; 95 percent confidence interval, 0.66 to 0.94; P=0.008) (Figure 1 and Table 2). Of 487 patients in whom atrial fibrillation developed after randomization, 105 (21.6 percent) had chronic atrial fibrillation (15.2 percent of patients with dual-chamber pacing, as compared with 26.7 percent of patients with ventricular pacing; hazard ratio
