29 Jan 2019
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Dl CO is a widely used pulmonary function test in clinical practice and a particularly useful measure for assessing patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We hypothesized that elucidating genetic determinants of Dl CO could lead to better understanding of the genetic architecture of COPD. We estimated the heritability of Dl CO using common genetic variants and performed genome-wide...
