Cross-population GWAS and proteomics improve risk prediction and reveal mechanisms in atrial fibrillation

Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common cardiac arrhythmia with strong genetic components, yet its underlying molecular mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets remain incompletely understood. We conducted a cross-population genome-wide meta-analysis of 168,007 AF cases and identified 525...
