The genetics of blood pressure regulation and its target organs from association studies in 342,415 individuals

To dissect the genetic architecture of blood pressure (BP) and assess how its elevation promotes downstream cardiovascular diseases, we analyzed 128,272 SNPs from targeted and genome-wide arrays in 201,529 individuals of European ancestry. Genotypes from an additional 140,886 individuals of Europe...
