Reverse causal effect of atrial fibrillation on 17 site-specific cancer risk: A Mendelian randomization study

2021-01-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Bidirectional association between atrial fibrillation (AF) and cancer was reported by observational investigations. Additional study is warranted to investigate the causal effects of AF on risk of cancer. <h4>Methods</h4> This study was a summary-level Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Genetic instrument for AF was developed from a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis for AF...
