      Registries Raise a Red Flag.

AB  - Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is one of the most common chronic diseases 
      worldwide and is highly prevalent in Mexico, as 10.2% of the adult population 
      harbors this condition. T2DM is usually associated with cardiovascular 
      comorbidities, including arrhythmias. Metabolic impairment is one of the 
      mechanisms that contribute to tissue remodeling that affects atrial structure, 
      and concomitant, the cardiac conduction system, both could result in atrial 
      fibrillation (AF). AF is estimated to affect more than a half million Mexicans, 
      and its incidence is expected to keep rising. According to national registries, 
      T2DM is present in 28.4% of Mexican patients with AF and the coexistence of both 
      diseases is associated with a higher risk of stroke. In clinical practice, the 
      CHA(2)DS(2)-VASc risk score is useful for stroke risk stratification in patients 
      with AF to facilitate the adequate use of anticoagulation therapy. T2DM is among 
      the items of the CHA(2)DS(2)-VASc score because it correlates with an intrinsic 
      prothrombotic state. In this narrative review, we present information that 
      highlights the need for optimal glucose control and adequate anticoagulation in 
      subjects with T2DM and AF.
