• RARE CODING VARIANTS ASSOCIATED WITH BLOOD PRESSURE VARIATION IN 15,914 INDIVIDUALS OF AFRICAN ANCESTRY - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 28234671

  ABSTRACT: Objectives Hypertension is a major risk factor for all cardiovascular disease, especially among African Americans. This study focuses on identifying specific BP genes using 15,914 individuals of African ancestry from eight cohorts (Africa America Diabetes Mellitus (AADM), Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study, Coronary Artery Risk Development in young Adults (CARDIA), Genetics Network (GenNet), Genetic Epidemiology Network of Arteriopathy (GENOA), Howard University Family Study (HUFS), Hypertension Genetic Epidemiology Network (HyperGEN), and Loyola University Chicago Cohort (LUC)) to further genetic findings in this population which has generally been underrepresented in blood pressure studies. Methods We genotyped and performed various single variant and gene-based e
