Dose-response analysis between hemoglobin A1c and risk of atrial fibrillation in patients with and without known diabetes

Abstract

Our results suggest that higher HbA1c was associated with an increased risk of AF, both in diabetes and in without diabetes or with unknown diabetes. However, no association was found between HbA1c and POAF in patients undergoing CABG. Further prospective studies with larger population sizes are needed to explore the association between serum HbA1c level and the risk of POAF.
