Genetic analysis of over 1 million people identifies 535 new loci associated with blood pressure traits.

Evangelos Evangelou, +341 more
- 17 Sep 2018 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the largest genetic association study of blood pressure traits (systolic, diastolic and pulse pressure) to date in over 1 million people of European ancestry was conducted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Meta-analysis identifies six new susceptibility loci for atrial fibrillation

Patrick T. Ellinor, +101 more
- 01 Jun 2012 - 
TL;DR: Six new atrial fibrillation susceptibility loci implicate candidate genes that encode transcription factors related to cardiopulmonary development, cardiac-expressed ion channels and cell signaling molecules that are associated with stroke, heart failure and death.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multi-Ethnic Genome-wide Association Study for Atrial Fibrillation

Carolina Roselli, +260 more
- 11 Jun 2018 - 
TL;DR: This large, multi-ethnic genome-wide association study identifies 97 loci significantly associated with atrial fibrillation that are enriched for genes involved in cardiac development, electrophysiology, structure and contractile function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Screening for Atrial Fibrillation: A Report of the AF-SCREEN International Collaboration

Ben Freedman, +59 more
- 09 May 2017 - 
TL;DR: A strong case for AF screening now is provided while recognizing that large randomized outcomes studies would be helpful to strengthen the evidence base.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Long- and Short-Term Impact of Elevated Body Mass Index on the Risk of New Atrial Fibrillation: The WHS (Women's Health Study)

TL;DR: In this population of apparently healthy women, BMI was associated with short- and long-term increases in AF risk, accounting for a large proportion of incident AF independent of traditional risk factors.
