Difference Between Various Countries in Mortality and Incidence Rate of the Atrial Fibrillation Based on Human Development Index in Worldwide: Data From Global Burden of Disease 2010-2019.

The most common cardiac arrhythmia is Atrial Fibrillation. The prevalence of AF has doubled in the last 30 years and has become a 21st century epidemic. Various studies have found that the overall burden of AF is larger in developed communities as well as higher-income nations. Data on AF were collected from the GBD database from 2010 to 2019, while HDI data was derived from the UNDP website. Men had a higher incidence than women, although women had a higher mortality. South America, West Europe, and South Africa had higher MIR (Mortality-to-Incidence Rate) than other countries. In the last study years, MIR significantly was higher in more developed countries. According to differences between genders and various countries, by expansion of the infrastructures and diagnostic methods such as electrocardiography and continuous training of doctors for early diagnosis, we can help in better management of AF and controlling this silent pandemic.
