Effects of Atrial Fibrillation Screening According to Thyroid Function: Post Hoc Analysis of the Randomized LOOP Study
AF screening and subsequent treatment was associated with decreased stroke risk among participants with low TSH, though the yield of screening was similar across TSH levels. TSH may be useful as a marker to indicate benefit from AF screening vs overdiagnosis and overtreatment. These findings should be considered exploratory and warrant further study.
