Key result
The mC2HEST score performs similarly to other models in predicting incident AF risk.
Why the study?
Assessing the risk of developing incident AF is important for prevention and screening, but the mC2HEST score has scarcely been evaluated, especially in a multi-ethnic population.
Does the mC2HEST score predict incident atrial fibrillation compared to other risk models?
Observational
Does the mC2HEST score predict incident atrial fibrillation compared to other risk models?
p-value: p== 0.41
The mC2HEST score is a practical model for predicting individuals' risk of incident atrial fibrillation to guide surveillance and screening strategies.
Background: Assessing individuals' risk of developing incident atrial fibrillation (AF) is important for making preventive and screening strategies. Objectives: HEST score for predicting incident AF has scarcely been evaluated, especially in a multi-ethnic population. Methods: HEST score was compared with other risk models. Results: = 0.41). Conclusions: HEST score is a practical model for predicting individuals' risk of incident AF that may be used for guiding AF surveillance, resource allocation, and screening strategies.

Li et al. (2025) conducted an observational in Incident Atrial Fibrillation. mC2HEST score vs. other risk models was evaluated on Incident atrial fibrillation (p== 0.41). The mC2HEST score is a practical model for predicting individuals' risk of incident atrial fibrillation compared with other risk models (P=0.41).
