Heart failure is a complex trait, influenced by environmental and genetic factors, affecting over 30 million individuals worldwide. Here we report common-variant and rare-variant association studies of all-cause heart failure and examine how different classes of genetic variation impact its heritability. We identify 176 common-variant risk loci at genome-wide significance in 2,358,556 individuals and cluster these signals into five broad modules based on pleiotropic associations with anthropomorphic traits/obesity, blood pressure/renal function, atherosclerosis/lipids, immune activity and arrhythmias. In parallel, we uncover exome-wide significant associations for heart failure and rare predicted loss-of-function variants in TTN, MYBPC3, FLNC and BAG3 using exome sequencing of 376,334 indi

Discuss with your doctor
-
genetic heart failure risk and prevention strategy Moderate
rs11956224 A allele increases heart failure risk; cardiologist can develop personalized prevention and screening plan.
consultation with cardiologist to discuss genetic risk and preventive interventions
Screening
-
cardiac function via baseline and periodic echocardiography Moderate
A allele carriers have increased heart failure risk; echocardiography detects structural or functional cardiac abnormalities early.
baseline echocardiogram; repeat every 2-3 years as recommended by cardiologist
