Atrial Fibrillation, Type 2 Diabetes
Conditions
Brief summary
This case-control study was conducted at Burapha University Hospital. The 12-lead electrocardiography recordings of type 2 diabetes patients were reviewed by a cardiologist to confirm the presence of atrial fibrillation. The clinical parameters, including age, sex, body-mass index, underlying medical conditions, blood pressure, heart rate, type 2 diabetes duration, laboratory values, and medications were analyzed and compared between atrial fibrillation and non-atrial fibrillation patients.
Interventions
Electrocardiography and clinical parameters examinations, including age, sex, body-mass index, underlying medical conditions, blood pressure, heart rate, type 2 diabetes duration, laboratory values, and medications
