Article Synopsis
  • The study investigated the prevalence of cardiac arrhythmias among transgender and nonbinary (TGNB) adults using medical records from a specialized care center over a period from 2010 to 2021.
  • Out of 49,862 adults, 7121 identified as TGNB, showing a low prevalence of arrhythmias (ranging from 0.7% to 1.5%), with transgender individuals having similar odds of arrhythmias compared to cisgender men but higher odds compared to cisgender women.
  • The findings suggest that the prevalence of arrhythmias is similar among TGNB adults regardless of whether they were undergoing gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT), highlighting the need for further research on this topic

Method: Forty-three couples ( = 86 individuals) with a trauma history were assessed for PTSS and RSA at baseline.
