Background Anthropometric factors are reported to be risk factors for atrial fibrillation (AF),
but it is unclear whether weight change in mid‐life is associated with AF. We aimed to study …

Aims Although obesity has been associated with risk of atrial fibrillation (AF), the
associations of long-term obesity, recent obesity, and weight change with AF risk throughout …

Background Increased body mass index (BMI) and obesity are associated with increased
risk of new-onset atrial fibrillation (AF) among middle-aged adults. Objectives The objective …

Aims Obesity is a major risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF). Compared with stable weight,
gaining weight was associated with a higher risk of incident AF in observational studies. The …

Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) has been associated with body size and central obesity,
but the impact of different anthropometric measures in this relationship has been …

Background Although increased height is associated with a risk of atrial fibrillation (AF), the
mechanism is not well understood. We aimed to explore whether this association varies with …

The incidence of both atrial fibrillation (AF) and obesity is increasing in the community, and
lifestyle intervention is recommended. We aimed to test whether the predictive effect of body …

Aims Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia. Increased body size
has been associated with AF, but the relationship is not well understood. In this study, we …

Introduction Obesity is a well-recognized risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF), yet adiposity
measures other than body mass index (BMI) have had limited assessment in relation to AF …

Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) prevalence is increasing, and body mass index (BMI) is a
risk factor for AF. However, sex differences in the impact of BMI on AF risk have not been …
