Gastroesophageal reflux disease may causally associate with the increased atrial fibrillation risk: evidence from two-sample Mendelian randomization analyses

Lei Wang,
Yi Wei Lu

Abstract: BackgroundThe risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) is increased in individuals with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), according to observational research. The causal significance of this association is still unclear. This study sought to assess GERD's role as a potential contributing factor in AF.MethodsWith the use of a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) technique, we assessed the causal relationship between GERD and AF. The association of genetic variants with GERD was examined using data from a recen… Show more
