TL;DR: In humans, plasma BAIBA concentrations are increased with exercise and inversely associated with metabolic risk factors, and β-aminoisobutyric acid (BAIBA) may contribute to exercise-induced protection from metabolic diseases.

TL;DR: Examination of genome-wide and candidate gene associations with systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolicBlood pressure (DBP) using the Candidate Gene Association Resource (CARe) consortium consisting of 8591 AAs supports the notion that blood pressure among AAs is a trait with genetic underpinnings but also with significant complexity.

TL;DR: Two novel loci associated with BP are identified and multiple previously reported associations are confirmed, extending the understanding of genes involved in BP regulation and some of which may eventually provide new targets for therapeutic intervention.

TL;DR: HIV, prehypertensive BP, and hypertensive BP were associated with an increased risk of AMI in a cohort of HIV-infected and -uninfected veterans and future studies should prospectively investigate whether HIV interacts with BP to further increase AMI risk.
