Polygenic Susceptibility of Aortic Aneurysms Associates to the Diameter of the Aneurysm Sac: the Aneurysm-Express Biobank Cohort

2019-05-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Purpose</h4> Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) have a multifactorial pathology with both genetic and environmental risk factors. Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have discovered ten genetic risk loci for AAA. To what extent these genetic loci contribute to the aneurysm pathology is yet unknown. This study aims to investigate whether genetic risk variants are associated with three clinical features...
