Genome-wide analysis in over 1 million individuals reveals over 2,000 independent genetic signals for blood pressure

2022-03-10

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Hypertension is a leading cause of premature death affecting more than a billion individuals worldwide. Here we report on the genetic determinants of blood pressure (BP) traits (systolic, diastolic, and pulse pressure) in the largest single-stage genome-wide analysis to date (N = 1,028,980 European-descent individuals). We identified 2,103 independent genetic signals (P < 5x10<sup>− 8</...
