Causal effect of atrial fibrillation on brain white or grey matter volume: A Mendelian randomization study

2020-12-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Atrial fibrillation (AF) and brain volume loss are prevalent in older individuals. Further study investigating the causal effect of AF on brain volume is warranted. <h4>Methods</h4> This study was a Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. The genetic instrument for AF was constructed from a previous genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis and included 537,409 individuals of European a...
