Roles of gut microbiota in atrial fibrillation: insights from Mendelian randomization analysis and genetic data from over 430,000 cohort study participants
8 Nov 2023
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Gut microbiota imbalances have been suggested as a contributing factor to atrial fibrillation (AF), but the causal relationship is not fully understood. OBJECTIVES: To explore the causal relationships between the gut microbiota and AF using Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. METHODS: Summary statistics were from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of 207 gut microbial taxa (5 phyla, 10 classes,...
