    Abstract Background Observational associations between type 2 diabetes (T2D) and atrial fibrillation (AF) have been established, but causality remains undetermined. We performed Mendelian randomization (MR) to study causal effects of genetically predicted T2D on AF risk, independent of cardiometabolic risk factors. Methods and Results Instrumental variables included 182 uncorrelated single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with T2D at genome-wide significance (

    Abstract Introduction: Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are associated with adverse feto-maternal outcomes. Existing evidence is mostly limited to observational studies, which are liable to confounding and bias. This study investigated the causal relevance of component hypertensive indices on multiple adverse pregnancy outcomes using Mendelian randomization.
    Methods: Uncorrelated ( r2  < 0.001) genome-wide significant ( P  < 5 × 10 -8 ) single-nucleotide polymorphisms associated with SBP, DBP and pulse pressure (PP) were selected as instrumental variables. Genetic association estimates for outcomes of preeclampsia or eclampsia, preterm birth, placental abruption and hemorrhage in early pregnancy were extracted from summary statistics of genome-wide association studies in the FinnGen cohort. Two-sample, inverse-variance weighted Mendelian randomization formed the primary analysis method. Odds ratios (OR) are presented per-10 mmHg higher genetically predicted hypertensive index.
    Results: Higher genetically predicted SBP were associated with higher odds of preeclampsia or eclampsia [OR 1.81, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.68-1.96, P  = 5.45 × 10 -49 ], preterm birth (OR 1.09, 95% CI 1.03-1.16, P  = 0.005) and placental abruption (OR 1.33, 95% CI 1.05-1.68, P  = 0.016). Higher genetically-predicted DBP was associated with preeclampsia or eclampsia (OR 2.54, 95% CI 2.21-2.92, P  = 5.35 × 10 -40 ). Higher genetically predicted PP was associated with preeclampsia or eclampsia (OR 1.68, 95% CI 1.47-1.92, P  = 1.9 × 10 -14 ) and preterm birth (OR 1.18, 95% CI 1.06-1.30, P  = 0.002).
    Conclusion: This study provides genetic evidence to support causal associations of SBP, DBP and PP on multiple adverse outcomes of pregnancy. SBP and PP were associated with the broadest range of adverse outcomes, suggesting that optimized management of blood pressure, particularly SBP, is a key priority to improve feto-maternal health.

    Abstract Pulsative signals such as the electrocardiogram (ECG) are extensively collected as part of routine clinical care. However, noisy and poor-quality recordings are a major issue for signals collected using mobile health systems, decreasing the signal quality, leading to missing values, and affecting automated downstream tasks. Recent studies have explored the imputation of missing values in ECG with probabilistic time-series models. Nevertheless, in comparison with the deterministic models, their performance is still limited, as the variations across subjects and heart-beat relationships are not explicitly considered in the training objective. In this work, to improve the imputation and forecasting accuracy for ECG with probabilistic models, we present a template-guided denoising diffusion probabilistic model (DDPM), PulseDiff, which is conditioned on an informative prior for a range of health conditions. Specifically, 1) we first extract a subject-level pulsative template from the observed values to use as an informative prior of the missing values, which personalises the prior; 2) we then add beat-level stochastic shift terms to augment the prior, which considers variations in the position and amplitude of the prior at each beat; 3) we finally design a confidence score to consider the health condition of the subject, which ensures our prior is provided safely. Experiments with the PTBXL dataset reveal that PulseDiff improves the performance of two strong DDPM baseline models, CSDI and SSSD$^{S4}$, verifying that our method guides the generation of DDPMs while managing the uncertainty. When combined with SSSD$^{S4}$, PulseDiff outperforms the leading deterministic model for short-interval missing data and is comparable for long-interval data loss.

    Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia and causes significant morbidity and mortality. Early identification of AF may lead to early treatment of AF and may thus prevent AF-related strokes and complications. However, there is no current formal, cost-effective strategy for population screening for AF. In this review, we give a brief overview of targeted screening for AF, AF risk score models used for screening and describe the different screening tools. We then go on to extensively discuss the potential applications of machine learning in AF screening.

    Abstract Obesity is global health problem with an estimated three billion people worldwide being classified as overweight or obese. In addition to being associated with a range of adverse health outcomes, obesity is linked to higher risks of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias, as well as sudden cardiac death. Obesity is a multifactorial disease that often co-exists with hypertension, diabetes, and sleep apnoea, which are also independent risk factors for cardiac arrhythmias. Nevertheless, compelling evidence suggests that increasing adiposity is an independent proarrhythmic risk factor and that weight loss can be a mitigating and preventative intervention to reduce arrhythmia incidence. This review briefly outlines the economic and social burden of obesity and summarises evidence for the direct and indirect effects of increasing adiposity on risk of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias. The paper also summarises the evidence for electrocardiographic changes indicative of obesity-related atrial and ventricular remodelling and how weight reduction and management of comorbidity might reduce arrhythmic burden.
