Incidence and risk of new-onset AF according to the presence of mental disorder in patients with diabetes. Model 1: Cox proportional hazards model without adjustment. Model 2: Model 1 with adjustment for age and sex; Model 3: Model 2 with adjustment for BMI, low-income level, smoking status, alcohol consumption status, regular physical activity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, chronic kidney disease, heart failure, obstructive sleep apnea, thyroid disease, fasting glucose, DM duration, insulin use, and oral hypoglycemic agents
