Genetically Predicted Circulating Inflammatory Proteins and Risk of Atrial Fibrillation: A Two-Sample Mendelian Randomization Study
Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia, and systemic inflammation has been repeatedly linked to its incidence in observational studies. However, distinguishing causal biological pathways from downstream inflammatory responses remains incompletely defined. Observational studi...
