Genome-wide analysis yields new loci associating with aortic valve stenosis

2017-11-03

Abstract excerpt

Aortic valve stenosis (AS) is the most common valvular heart disease, characterized by a thickened and calcified valve causing left ventricular outflow obstruction. Severe AS is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality, affecting approximately 5% of those over 70 years of age 1,2,3 . Little is known about the genetics of AS, although recently a variant at the LPA locus 4 and a rare MYH6 missense variant...
