Five studies from December 2009 to February 2018 were included in this meta-analysis involving 5,640 subjects with ACS (1,102 with CIN and 4,538 without CIN). Contrast-induced nephropathy significantly correlates with new-onset AF after cardiac catheterization (pooled risk ratio = 2.84, 95% confidence interval: 1.66-4.87, p < 0.001, I2  = 58%) CONCLUSIONS: Contrast-induced nephropathy is associated with new-onset AF threefold among patients with ACS after cardiac catheterization. Our study warranted further study to establish the causality between CIN and new-onset AF.
