Familial aggregation in lone atrial fibrillation
Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common clinical arrhythmia and a major risk factor for stroke. To investigate the role of genetic factors in a typical clinical population, we determined the extent of familial aggregation in patients with lone AF. To estimate the relative risk to family members, the prevalence of AF for each class of relative was compared to the prevalence in the comparable age and sex group from the general population. Family members had an increased relative risk of AF compared to the general population (risk ratio; 95% confidence intervals): sons (8.1; 2.0-32), daughters (9.5; 1.3-67), brothers (70; 47-102), sisters (34; 14-80), mothers (4.0; 2.5-6.5) and fathers (2.0; 1.2-3.6). Relatives of probands with lone AF are at a substantially increased risk of developing this arrhythmia suggesting a Mendelian genetic contribution to the etiology of this common trait.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
