The contribution of pleiotropy to blood pressure and body-mass index variation: the Gubbio Study.

American journal of human genetics - 1 Feb 1994

Schork N J, Weder A B, Trevisan M, Laurenzi M

Abstract excerpt

Blood pressure (BP), body-mass index (BMI), and quantitative phenotypes thought to influence BP (e.g., lithium-sodium countertransport activity) were studied in 2,184 households comprising 5,376 people in Gubbio, Italy. Variance-components models were used to partition the variation of these phenotypes into components characterizing the effects of age-related, measured environmental, additive genetic,...
