Sex-specific differences in the genetic and environmental effects on cardiac phenotypic variation assessed by echocardiography

Abstract The drivers of sexual dimorphism in heart failure phenotypes are currently poorly understood. Divergent phenotypes may result from differences in heritability and genetic versus environmental influences on the interplay of cardiac structure and function. To assess sex-specific heritability...
