Abstract in brief

  • The study found that in patients with atrial fibrillation, those who drank coffee daily had about a 23% lower risk of major cardiovascular events (like stroke, heart attack, or heart failure) compared to those who didn't drink coffee daily.
  • Moderate coffee drinking (about 2-3 cups a day) was linked to the lowest risk of these heart problems, suggesting that a moderate amount of coffee might be protective.
  • Overall, drinking coffee daily was associated with reduced risks of overall death and certain heart-related hospitalizations, but the link between coffee and stroke risk was less clear.]
