Genetic Association of Arterial Stiffness Index with Blood Pressure and Coronary Artery Disease

2018-10-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Arterial stiffness index (ASI) is independently associated with blood pressure and coronary artery disease (CAD) in epidemiologic studies. However, it is unknown whether these associations represent causal relationships. <h4>Objectives</h4> Here, we assess whether genetic predisposition to increased ASI is associated with elevated blood pressure and CAD risk. <h4>Methods</h4> Genome-wide ass...
