Journal ArticleDOI

Plasma aldosterone levels are associated with increased cardiovascular mortality: the Ludwigshafen Risk and Cardiovascular Health (LURIC) study.

TL;DR: In a large cohort of patients scheduled for coronary angiography, variation in PAC levels within the normal range is associated with increased all-cause and CVD mortality independent of major established CV risk factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Loci influencing blood pressure identified using a cardiovascular gene-centric array

Santhi K. Ganesh, +144 more
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.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Genome-Wide Association Study Identifies LIPA as a Susceptibility Gene for Coronary Artery Disease

Philipp S. Wild, +88 more
TL;DR: A genome-wide association and global gene expression study to identify functionally relevant variants affecting the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) led to the identification of the novel functional CAD susceptibility locus LIPA, located on chromosome 10q23.31.
Journal ArticleDOI

Meta-analysis of Dense Genecentric Association Studies Reveals Common and Uncommon Variants Associated with Height

Matthew B. Lanktree, +202 more
TL;DR: It is shown that dense coverage of genes for uncommon SNPs, coupled with large-scale meta-analysis, can successfully identify additional variants associated with a common complex trait.
