Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The variation and covariation for many cardiometabolic traits have been decomposed into genetic and environmental fractions, by using twin or single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) models. However, differences in population, age, sex, and other factors hamper the comparison between twin- and SNP-based estimates. METHODS AND RESULTS: Twenty-four cardiometabolic traits and 700,000 genotyped SNPs were...
