Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To examine the phenotypic and genetic associations of blood pressure and body mass index (BMI) with retinal vascular caliber. METHODS: A total of 657 monozygotic and 378 dizygotic twin pairs aged 7 to 19 years were recruited from the Guangzhou Twin Registry. All twins underwent digital retinal photography and measurement of retinal vascular caliber. The genetic correlations between the traits were...
