Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a prevalent cardiac arrhythmia with significant clinical implications. The potential influence of lipid-lowering therapies, specifically PCSK9 inhibitors (PCSK9i) and HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins), on AF risk remains a topic of interest. This mendelian randomization (MR) study aimed to elucidate the causal relationship between genetically predicted inhibition of...
