Are blood lipid levels associated with the incidence of atrial fibrillation?
Participants in 2 community-based cohorts (Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis and the Framingham Heart Study)
Blood lipid levels (high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, total cholesterol)
Incidence of Atrial Fibrillation (AF)hard clinical
In community-based cohorts, HDL cholesterol and triglycerides, but not LDL or total cholesterol, are associated with the risk of developing atrial fibrillation.
In these 2 community-based cohorts, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglycerides but not low-density lipoprotein cholesterol or total cholesterol were associated with the risk of AF, accounting for other cardiometabolic risk factors.
