Shared genetic etiology between chronic diseases and heart failure risk: the dual role of leukocyte telomere length
2023-08-08
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Introduction</h4> Genetic susceptibility to various chronic diseases has been shown to influence heart failure (HF) risk. However, the pathogenic mechanisms underlying these associations, particularly the role of phenotypic leukocyte telomere length (LTL), is unknown. We investigated the shared genetic etiology between chronic diseases, various traits, and HF risk, and whether LTL mediates or modifies these re...
