hypovitaminosis D
Summary
Atrial fibrillation (AF), an important cause of cardiac mortality and morbidity is the most
 common type of cardiac arrhythmia in clinical practice. Hypertensive individuals are at
 particular risk of development of atrial fibrillation. Renin-angiotensin-aldosteron system
 (RAS) which is activated in hypertension may be the underlying mechanism of AF among
 hypertensive patients.
 
 Vitamin D deficiency has been shown to be involved in the pathogenesis of hypertension,
 cardiovascular disease and obesity. Increased RAS activity is one of the postulated
 mechanisms by which vitamin D deficiency may trigger the development of hypertension and
 various cardiovascular diseases. On the basis of these data we hypothesized that
 hypovitaminosis D might be associated with new-onset AF among patients with hypertension.
