Abstract
Lifetime risk of AF is nearly 37 % in individual of European ancestry. Individuals who have higher genetics risk or clinical risks would have higher chance to develop AF comparing to individuals who have lower risks (50% vs 30%). In addition, we observed that AF patients who have a lower clinical risk burden were associated with a later AF onset time regardless of their genetic predisposition.1 Author
