TL;DR: The genetic background of Lewis negative blood group phenotype and its association with atherosclerotic disease in the NHLBI Family Heart Study is studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Casey M. Rebholz,Morgan E. Grams,Pamela L. Lutsey,Andrew N. Hoofnagle,Jeffrey R. Misialek,Lesley A. Inker,Andrew S. Levey,Elizabeth Selvin,Chi-yuan Hsu,Paul L. Kimmel,Ramachandran S. Vasan,John H. Eckfeldt,Josef Coresh +12 more
TL;DR: Blood levels of vitamin D binding protein were positively associated and blood levels of free and bioavailable 25(OH)D were inversely associated with new-onset ESRD during follow-up, indicating a weak link in the general population.
Journal ArticleDOI
A genome-wide screen reveals evidence for a locus on chromosome 11 influencing variation in LDL cholesterol in the NHLBI Family Heart Study.
Hilary Coon,John H. Eckfeldt,Mark Leppert,Richard H. Myers,Donna K. Arnett,Gerardo Heiss,Michael A. Province,Steven C. Hunt +7 more
TL;DR: A genome scan was performed for low-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration (LDL-C) in white subjects who were ascertained through the NHLBI Family Heart Study and the highest peak was on chromosome 11, with a maximum lod score of 3.72.
Journal ArticleDOI
Family history of coronary heart disease and hemostatic variables in middle-aged adults
James S. Pankow,Aaron R. Folsom,Michael A. Province,Dabeeru C. Rao,John H. Eckfeldt,Gerardo Heiss,Eyal Shahar,Kenneth K. Wu +7 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that mean levels of selected hemostatic variables, like traditional CHD risk factors, are higher in individuals with a family history of heart disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pharmacogenetic Association of Hypertension Candidate Genes with Fasting Glucose in the GenHAT Study
Marguerite R. Irvin,Amy I. Lynch,Edmond K. Kabagambe,Hemant K. Tiwari,Joshua I. Barzilay,Joshua I. Barzilay,John H. Eckfeldt,Eric Boerwinkle,Barry R. Davis,Charles E. Ford,Donna K. Arnett +10 more
TL;DR: Further examination of these HTN candidate genes and their relationships with cardiometabolic disease could foster development of pharmacogenetic guidelines aimed to prevent increases in fasting glucose during antihypertensive treatment.
