Body composition and atrial fibrillation: a Mendelian randomization study

3 Jan 2019

Abstract excerpt

AIMS: Increases in fat-free mass and fat mass have been associated with higher risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) in observational studies. It is not known whether these associations reflect independent causal processes. Our aim was to evaluate independent causal roles of fat-free mass and fat mass on AF. METHODS AND RESULTS: We conducted a large observational study to estimate the associations between fat-free...
