Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: For many indications, the negative chronotropic effect of β-blockers is important to their efficacy, yet the heart rate (HR) response to β-blockers varies. Herein, we sought to use a genome-wide association approach to identify novel single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with HR response to β-blockers. METHODS AND RESULTS: We first performed 4 genome-wide association analyses for HR...
