Protective effect of uridine on atrial fibrillation: a Mendelian randomisation study

Abstract Uridine, a pyrimidine nucleoside, is crucial in the synthesis of metabolites. According to observational studies, a higher plasma uridine level is associated with a lower risk of atrial fibrillation (AF). However, the casual relationship between uridine and AF is still unknown. In this stud...
