The figure illustrates AF-associated genes that were discovered through family based or gene-based studies. For each gene the lines of evidence are listed. The table includes the evidence from familial AF genetic analysis, whether coding variants in the gene are associated with AF, if the gene lies within an AF GWAS locus, whether loss-of-function variation is associated with AF, and functional evidence that has been reported for the gene in the context of AF.
Abbreviations: AF, atrial fibrillation; GWAS, genome-wide association study.
