Genetically predicted waist circumference and risk of atrial fibrillation

29 Aug 2023

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Observational studies have revealed an association between waist circumference (WC) and atrial fibrillation (AF). However, it is difficult to infer a causal relationship from observational studies because the observed associations could be confounded by unknown risk factors. Therefore, the causal role of WC in AF is unclear. This study was designed to investigate the causal association between WC...
