Abstract: In patients with heart failure (HF), atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common arrhythmia and has a significant association with an increased risk for mortality. The cumulative effects of ten genotypes susceptible to AF identified by meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) were reported
