DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Atrial fibrillation (AF) has a currently estimated prevalence of 2.3 million people and increases stroke risk by 3-5 fold, heart failure risk by 3 fold and mortality risk by 1.5 to 1.9 times. The study will integrate P wave indices, a novel electrocardiographic (ECG) phenotype, and determine their contribution to risk prediction for AF, stroke and mortality. P wave indices, described by P wave duration, dispersion, amplitude, area, and terminal force, reflect atrial electrophysiology and morphology and are consequently a barometer of atrial tissue function. The study has three aims. First, it will develop the phenotype of P wave indices in the Framingham Heart Study (FHS). Second, it will assess the genetic variants associated with P wave indices in the FHS and the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study. Third, it will develop and calibrate risk models for AF, heart failure and mortality across these two cohorts. Models will be developed in ARIC and then validated and replicated in FHS. The study design facilitates collaboration between cohorts with complementary demographics and phenotypic characterization, and leverages previously established collaborations for AF risk prediction. The epidemiology, prognostic value and genetic determinants of P wave indices have been incompletely described. Our efforts will contribute towards understanding risk modeling for AF, heart failure, and mortality within the ARIC and FHS studies. The study will make unique contributions towards the association of P wave indices and the end- points. Ultimately, such an effort will elucidate how P wave indices, easily accessible from the surface ECG, may indicate important physiologic processes that merit intervention. 2/5/2010 PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Prolonged P waves have been associated with atrial fibrillation, an irregular heart rhythm which increases the risk of stroke and death. The contribution of the P wave towards other outcomes such as heart failure and death is unknown. Investigators from the Framingham Heart Study and the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study propose to examine how P waves contribute towards these outcomes.

描述（由申请人提供）：目前估计房颤（AF）的患病率为230万人，卒中风险增加3-5倍，心力衰竭风险增加3倍，死亡风险增加1.5 - 1.9倍。该研究将整合P波指数，一种新的心电图（ECG）表型，并确定其对AF，卒中和死亡率风险预测的贡献。由P波持续时间、离散度、振幅、面积和终末力描述的P波指数反映了心房电生理学和形态学，因此是心房组织功能的晴雨表。 这项研究有三个目的。首先，它将在FHS研究中开发P波指数的表型。其次，它将评估与FHS和社区动脉粥样硬化风险（ARIC）研究中P波指数相关的遗传变异。第三，它将开发和校准这两个队列的AF，心力衰竭和死亡率的风险模型。模型将在ARIC中开发，然后在FHS中验证和复制。研究设计促进了具有互补人口统计学和表型特征的队列之间的合作，并利用先前建立的AF风险预测合作。 P波指数的流行病学、预后价值和遗传决定因素尚未完全描述。我们的努力将有助于了解ARIC和FHS研究中AF、心力衰竭和死亡率的风险建模。该研究将对P波指数与终点的关联做出独特的贡献。最终，这样的努力将阐明如何P波指数，容易从表面心电图，可能表明重要的生理过程，值得干预。2/5/2010 公共卫生相关性：延长的P波与房颤有关，这是一种不规则的心律，会增加中风和死亡的风险。P波对其他结局（如心力衰竭和死亡）的影响尚不清楚。来自心脏病研究和社区动脉粥样硬化风险研究的研究人员建议研究P波如何促成这些结果。
