Genetic Susceptibility to Atrial Fibrillation Identified via Deep Learning of 12-lead Electrocardiograms

Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI) models applied to 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) waveforms can predict atrial fibrillation (AF), a heritable and morbid arrhythmia. We hypothesized that there may be a genetic basis for ECG-AI based risk estimates. We applied an ECG-AI model for predicting incident AF to ECGs from 39,986 UK Biobank participants without AF. We then performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of the predicted AF risk. We identified three signals (P<5E-8) at established AF susceptibility loci… Show more

“…In their CNN model, Tang et al (2022) used intracardiac electrograms and 12‐lead ECGs, as well as a multimodal fusion model incorporating electrogram, ECG, and clinical data to predict AF recurrence after ablation. X. Wang et al (2023) analyzed the genetic basis of their ECG‐AI model predictions by performing genome‐wide association studies and correlating the outcomes with the model outputs.…”

“…hypothesized a genetic basis for an AI‐based ECG in predicting AF risks and performed a genome‐wide association study, finding that the results of the model are correlated with genetic variation implicating sarcomeric, ion channel, and body height pathways. And the inherited predisposition to AF was shown better in predicting AF risk through AI models than clinical models 32 …”
