Key Words	Atrial fibrillation; Hypertension; Gender differences
Core Tip	The presence of atrial fibrillation (AF) in hypertensive patients with an age of ≥ 65 years was associated with age, alcohol consumption, the presence of heart disease, and decreased glomerular filtration. In women, AF was associated with all of the factors included in the overall analysis, as well as the presence of left ventricle hypertrophy, whereas in men, the only risk factors associated with AF were age, the presence of heart disease and alcohol consumption. Thus, in patients with hypertension who are over 65 years of age, there are relevant gender differences in the factors associated with AF.
