Sequence variants with large effects on cardiac electrophysiology and disease

Sequence variants with large effects on cardiac electrophysiology and disease

Aberrant morphology of the QRS complex in an electrocardiogram can be associated with cardiac morbidity and mortality. Here, the authors perform genome-wide association studies for ten measures of the QRS complex in 81,192 individuals and find 86 previously unreported loci that associate with at lea...
