Meanwhile, the risk of suffering from cardiovascular disease (CVD) has been increasing with ageing. Cancer, atrial fibrillation (AF) and coronary artery disease share some common factors and interact with each other, such as obesity, aging, diabetes, and inflammation, but the potential specific mechanism is still unclear.

Background and objective Patients with both coronary artery disease (CAD) and atrial fibrillation (AF) are at a high risk of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) during hospitalization. Accurate prediction of MACCE can help identify high-risk patients and guide treatment decisions.
