Fragmented sinoatrial dynamics in the prediction of atrial fibrillation: the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis

Heart rate fragmentation (HRF), a marker of abnormal sinoatrial dynamics, was shown to be associated with incident cardiovascular events in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA). Here, we test the hypothesis that HRF is also associated with incident atrial fibrillation (AF) in the MESA co...
