Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Pulse pressure, a measure of central arterial stiffness and a predictor of cardiovascular mortality, has known genetic components. METHODS: To localize the genetic effects of pulse pressure, we conducted a genome-wide linkage analysis of 1,892 American-Indian participants of the Strong Heart Family Study (SHFS). Blood pressure was measured three times and the average of the last two measures was used...
