Cumulative effects of common genetic variants on risk of sudden cardiac death

Cumulative effects of common genetic variants on risk of sudden cardiac death

Background: Genome-wide association studies and candidate-gene based approaches have identified multiple common variants associated with increased risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD). However, the independent contribution of these individual loci to disease risk is modest. Objective: To investigate t...
