Helicobacter pylori (H pylori) infection and H antibodies have been reported to be associated with an increased risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) in several observational studies. However, whether this relationship is causal which serve as the determinant AF remains largely unclear. Recently published Genome-wide association studies on 7 different pylori-specific proteins (2 correction methods) were included study. A two-sample Mendelian randomization study was employed investigate effects circulating AF. Genetically predicted serum Catalase antibody level (Firth correction) (odds ratio = 1.137, 95% confidence interval: 1.008-1.282, P .037) (saddlepoint approximation 1.139, 1.010-1.284, .034). No significant correlations found between other This demonstrates that only terms pylori-related antibodies.
