Association Between New-Onset Type 2 Diabetes and Cardiac Conduction Diseases: A Prospective Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Cardiac conduction diseases can lead to life-threatening outcomes. However, the evidence on risk factors for conduction disease that is needed to underpin prevention strategies is limited. The present study aimed to determine the association between type 2 diabetes and cardiac conduction diseases.

Methods and results

This study included 101 080 participants free of prevalent diabetes and cardiac conduction diseases at baseline from the Kailuan Study. All participants were monitored biennially until December 31, 2020. During follow-up, 14 397 participants were diagnosed as having type 2 diabetes. For each case subject, 1 control subject was randomly selected, matched for age (±1 year) and sex. The final analysis comprised 10 744 case-control pairs. Cox regression m
