Cover Story: Atrial fibrillation (AF) increases the risk of dementia. Whether pharmacological rhythm control of AF could reduce the risk of dementia compared with rate control strategy remains unclear. We analyzed AF patients from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Database. Patients receiving anti-arrhythmic drugs or rate control medications constituted the rhythm and rate control groups, respectively. In patients with AF, pharmacological rhythm control was associated with lower risk of dementia than rate control (adjust HR: 0.75, p = 0.031) over a long-term follow-up. View this paper
