This study states that Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most regular neurodegenerative problem related with different morbidities. Albeit the connection between cardiovascular illness and PD has been contemplated, a scarcity of data on PD and atrial fibrillation (AF) affiliation exists. Consequently, we meant to explore whether patients with PD have an expanded danger of AF. This investigation included 57,585 patients with recently analyzed PD (≥40‐year‐old, mean age 69.7 years, men 40.2%) and without a background marked by AF from the Korean National Health Insurance Service (NHIS) information base somewhere in the range of 2010 and 2015. Moreover, an equivalent number of age‐ and sex‐matched subjects without PD were chosen for correlation. The essential result was new‐onset AF. During the mean follow‐up time of 3.4 ± 1.8 years, AF was recently analyzed in 3,665 patients. An altogether higher rate pace of AF was noted among patients with PD than among patients without PD (10.75 and 7.86 per 1000 person‐year, individually)
