Bidirectional Mendelian randomization study evaluates causal linkages among angina, myocardial infarction, and atrial fibrillation, highlighting potential shared cardiovascular mechanisms.
Coronary heart disease (CHD) and atrial fibrillation (AF) exhibit a close relationship, yet the existing body of research predominantly relies on observational study methodologies, posing challenges in establishing causal relationships. The objective of our study is to investigate the causal linkages between coronary atherosclerosis (CAAs), angina pectoris, myocardial infarction (MI), and AF.
