Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to test whether the association of C-reactive protein (CRP) with increased risk of atrial fibrillation is a robust and perhaps even causal association. BACKGROUND: Elevated levels of CRP previously have been associated with increased risk of atrial fibrillation. METHODS: We studied 10,276 individuals from the prospective Copenhagen City Heart Study, including 771...
