Text: Patients with thrombi in SR and with AF did not significantly differ in LA diameter (5. 1 + / - 0. 8 cm vs 4. 8 + / - 0. 7 cm ; 95 % confidence interval [CI], -0. 78 to 0. 45), left ventricular ejection fraction (46 % + / - 13 % vs 42 % + / - 15 % ; 95 % CI, -18. 7 to 7. 4), LA appendage area (5. 8 + / - 2. 7 cm (2) vs 6. 7 + / - 3. 2 cm (2) ; 95 % CI, -1. 9 to 3. 6), peak emptying velocity of the LA appendage (0. 19 + / - 0. 08 m/s vs 0. 17 + / - 0. 07 m/s ; 95 % CI, -0. 08 to 0. 04), or LA spontaneous echo contrast (3. 5 + / - 0. 6 vs 3. 9 + / - 0. 5 ; 95 % CI, -0. 06 to 0. 45).
