  Figure 1. Patient Selection in NHIRD. The study population of patients who treated as acute myocardial infarction was selected from 2008 to 2010 in the NHIRD, included 32886 AMI patients. (AF = atrial fibrillation, AMI = acute myocardial infarction, MACE = Major adverse cardiovascular event, NHIRD = National Health Insurance Research Database).

  Figure 2. Kaplan–Meier survival estimates after index MI among groups of different AF patterns. Kaplan-Meier survival estimates of entire patient cohort stratified by AF after index MI. The MI-free (A), heart failure-free (B), stroke-free (C), overall (D) and MACCE-free (E) survival estimates for the patient cohort are grouped by AF pattern which is represented by lines as denoted in the panel. (AF = atrial fibrillation, MACCE = major adverse cardiac and cerebral vascular events, MI = myocardial infarction).

The MI-free (A), heart failure-free (B), stroke-free (C), overall (D) and MACCE-free (E) survival estimates for the patient cohort are grouped by AF pattern which is represented by lines as denoted in the panel. (AF = atrial fibrillation, MACCE = major adverse cardiac and cerebral vascular events, MI = myocardial infarction).

  Figure 3. Kaplan–Meier estimates grouped by statin treatment and AF pattern. Kaplan-Meier survival estimates of AF patient after MI stratified by statin treatment and AF pattern after index MI. The overall (A) and MACCE-free (B) survival estimates for the patient cohort are grouped by AF pattern and statin treatment which is represented by lines as denoted in the panel. (AF = atrial fibrillation, MACCE = major adverse cardiac and cerebral vascular events, MI = myocardial infarction).
