Sex differences in early-onset atrial fibrillation in Norwegian primary care: a retrospective national database analysis
The study confirmed a low prevalence of early-onset AF, with substantial sex differences and individual variation in primary healthcare needs. Our results signal a need for a higher resolution with regard to age groups in future research on burden and sex differences in early-onset AF.
