Aims The prognostic implication of adiposity on clinical outcomes in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients treated with oral anticoagulation is unclear. Methods and results A total of 17 913 patients in the Apixaban for Reduction in Stroke and Other Thromboembolic Events in Atrial Fibrillation trial had body mass index (BMI) measured at baseline. For the primary analysis, BMI was categorized as normal (18.5 to 25 kg/m), overweight (25 to 30 kg/m), and obese (≥30 kg/m). Waist circumference (WC) was defined as high if 102 cm for men and 88 cm in women. Outcomes were stroke or systemic embolism, a composite endpoint (stroke, systemic embolism, myocardial infarction, or all-cause mortality), all-cause mortality, and major bleeding. Cox models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) across categories of BMI and WC adjusting for established risk factors and treatment allocation. At baseline, 4052 (22.6%) patients had a normal BMI, 6702 (37.4%) were overweight, and 7159 (40.0%) were obese. In multivariable analyses, higher BMI was associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality [overweight: HR 0.67 (95% CI 0.59–0.78); obese: HR 0.63 (95% CI 0.54–0.74), P
