Abstract excerpt
Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) is an age-associated condition whose population-level characteristics and clinical concordance in Japan remain incompletely defined. We analyzed whole-genome sequencing data from 49,982 participants in the Tohoku Medical Megabank (TMM) cohort to characterize the prevalence, mutational spectrum, age dependency, and clinical relevance of CHIP. CHIP mutations...
