Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Twin and family studies have shown that genetic effects explain a relatively high amount of the phenotypic variation in blood pressure. However, many studies have not been able to replicate findings of association between specific polymorphisms and diastolic and systolic blood pressure. METHODS: In a structural equation-modelling framework the authors investigated longitudinal changes in repeated...
