Abstract excerpt
Several vascular diseases including coronary artery disease, hypertension, stroke, and abdominal aortic aneurysm, have significant genetic underpinnings. Genome-wide association studies have unveiled many genetic loci associated with one or more of these diseases. However, the causative genes at most of these loci are yet to be determined, which hampers the translation of the genetic findings into a better...
