Multi-ancestry GWAS of the electrocardiographic PR interval identifies 210 loci underlying cardiac conduction
2019-07-24
Abstract excerpt
The electrocardiographic PR interval reflects atrioventricular conduction, and is associated with conduction abnormalities, pacemaker implantation, atrial fibrillation (AF), and cardiovascular mortality 1,2 . We performed multi-ancestry (N=293,051) and European only (N=271,570) genome-wide association (GWAS) meta-analyses for the PR interval, discovering 210 loci of which 149 are novel. Variants at all loci nearl...
