Abstract excerpt
Type 2 diabetes and hypertension are common health conditions that often occur together, suggesting shared biological mechanisms. To explore this relationship, we analyse large-scale multiomic data to uncover genetic factors underlying type 2 diabetes and blood pressure comorbidity. We curate 1304 independent single-nucleotide variants associated with type 2 diabetes and blood pressure, grouping them into five...
