Characterization of Genome-Wide Association-Identified Variants for Atrial Fibrillation in African Americans
BACKGROUND: Despite a greater burden of risk factors, atrial fibrillation (AF) is less common among African Americans than European-descent populations. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for AF in European-descent populations have identified three predominant genomic regions associated with inc...
