    ABSTRACT: In this trans-ethnic multi-omic study we reinterpret the genetic architecture of blood pressure to identify genes, tissues, phenome, and medication contexts of blood pressure homeostasis. We discovered 208 novel common blood pressure SNPs and 53 rare variants in GWASs of systolic, diastolic and pulse pressure in up to 776,078 participants from the Million Veteran Program (MVP) and collaborating studies, with analysis of the blood pressure clinical phenome in MVP. Our transcriptome-wide association study detected 4,043 blood pressure associations with genetically-predicted gene expression of 840 genes in 45 tissues, and murine renal single-cell RNA sequencing identified upregulated blood pressure genes in kidney tubule cells.

Lifestyle context

Concrete actions anchored to the cited research. We do not prescribe, we describe.

Discuss with your doctor

  • cardiovascular risk assessment and prevention strategy Moderate

    Genetic finding associated with elevated pulse pressure enables early risk stratification

    discuss this genetic finding and cardiovascular risk profile with healthcare provider

Lifestyle

  • cardiovascular fitness and vascular health Moderate

    Elevated pulse pressure reflects arterial stiffness; aerobic exercise improves vascular compliance

    aim for 150 minutes moderate aerobic exercise weekly and regular stress management

Screening

  • blood pressure and pulse pressure monitoring Moderate

    T risk allele associated with elevated pulse pressure, a cardiovascular risk factor

    measure and record pulse pressure at routine visits; discuss findings with clinician
