Depression is associated with an increased risk of new-onset atrial fibrillation in South Korean adults, suggesting a need for targeted AF screening.
This study found that depression was associated with a significantly increased cumulative incidence and risk of new-onset AF. Recurrent episodes of depression were associated with even higher risk. These findings suggest the need for adequate screening for AF in people with depression, particularly in younger people and women.
