The principal aim of Arrhythmia & Electrophysiology Review is to provide concise, timely articles highlighting clinical advances relevant to the management of those with arrhythmias. The Editors have also from the outset1 emphasised the substantial gaps in our capacity inter alia to predict those at risk of sudden death, understand atrial fibrillation mechanisms and provide effective and safe drug treatment. In these and other areas of clinical practice many of our efforts will in hindsight be seen, despite all our best efforts, to have been primitive.2
