Genetic analyses across cardiovascular traits: leveraging genetic correlations to empower locus discovery and prediction in common cardiovascular diseases
29 Sept 2025
Abstract excerpt
Common genetic variation detected by genome-wide association studies (GWAS) partially explains variability in the spectrum of cardiac phenotypes. In this work, we explore genetic correlations among 58 cardiac-related traits/diseases, detecting novel ones. We subsequently employ multi-trait analysis of GWAS (MTAG), which meta-analyzes genetically correlated traits, to improve genomic loci discovery and prediction...
