Table 4.

Hazard ratios for the association between hyperthyroidism and all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality during (1) whole follow-up, (2) the first year of follow-up after concomitant diagnoses of AF and hyperthyroidism, and (3) beyond the first year of follow-up.

	Whole FU	Day 1–365	After Day 365
All-cause mortality
All patients	0.973 (0.952–0.994)	0.939 (0.911–0.968)	1.016 (0.983–1.049)
Men	0.997 (0.963–1.032)	0.982 (0.937–1.029)	1.014 (0.965–1.067)
Women	0.957 (0.930–0.985)	0.910 (0.876–0.946)	1.018 (0.976–1.062)
Cardiovascular mortality
All patients	1.006 (0.967–1.046)	0.946 (0.897–0.998)	1.088 (1.027–1.153)
Men	1.015 (0.951–1.083)	0.940 (0.859–1.028)	1.110 (1.011–1.219)
Women	0.955 (0.909–1.003)	0.904 (0.846–0.965)	1.030 (0.957–1.110)

Hazard ratios are for hyperthyroidism vs. no hyperthyroidism.
