The Risk of Atrial Fibrillation Increases with Earlier Onset of Obesity: A Mendelian Randomization Study.

International journal of medical sciences - 1 Jan 2022

Zhou Yingchao, Zha Lingfeng, Pan Silin

Abstract excerpt

Background: Obesity is a well-established risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF). Previous epidemiological research on obesity and AF often focused on adult populations and now broadened to earlier in life. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the relationships between obesity at different periods of life and the risk of AF. Methods: A two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study design using summarised...
