Risk factors for AF in GD are similar to those in the general population although overt hyperthyroidism conferred the highest risk, especially for early AF. Treatment with thionamide was associated with late AF.

Art is integrated into the Mayo Clinic environment. Since the original Mayo Clinic Building was finished in 1914, many pieces have been donated or commissioned for patients and staff to enjoy. Each issue of Mayo Clinic Proceedings features a work of art (as interpreted by the author) that is displayed in a building or on the grounds of Mayo Clinic campuses.
