Caffeine affects blood glucose through at least three mechanisms: it antagonizes adenosine receptors (which normally improve insulin sensitivity), it stimulates catecholamine release (which promotes glycogenolysis), and it inhibits phosphodiesterase (raising cAMP and amplifying counterregulatory hormone signals)
We excluded 1) those with diagnoses of AF, atrial tachycardia, ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, mechanical valve, hyperthyroidism, or mitral stenosis before or on the index date, 2) those with cardiac events (i.e., myocardial infarction, percutaneous intervention, valve/bypass surgery) in the preceding 3 months, 3) those currently receiving antiarrhythmic medications (e.g., amiodarone, dronedarone, flecainide, propafenone, or dofetilide) on the index date, 4) those who used insulin within one year prior or on the index date, and 5) those who do not have hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) within one year prior or on the index date (eFigure 1)
