Genome Wide Pleiotropic Analysis to Identify Novel Variants and Improve Genetic Risk Score Construction

2021-03-10

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Systolic and diastolic blood pressure (S/DBP) are highly correlated and modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD). We report here a bidirectional Mendelian Randomization (MR) and GWAS pleiotropy analysis of S/DBP summary statistics from large published BP GWAS and construct a composite genetic risk score (GRS), capturing respectively 21%, 11%, and 227% more of SBP, DBP an...
