In a recent study published in Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice found that early rhythm control (ERC) significantly impacts the occurrence of diabetes-related complications and mortality in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and atrial fibrillation (AF).
The study included 47,509 subjects with T2DM and AF and based on the Korean National Health Insurance Service claims database spanning from 2009 to 2016. Subjects were divided into two groups – those who received ERC within one year of AF diagnosis and those who underwent usual care.
