Background:Common genetic variation explains up to 40% of blood pressure variation. Despite this compelling physiological impact, the role of common genetic variation in blood pressure treatment and their sequelae remains understudied. 1.18) and 30% (OR 1.30, 95%CI 1.24-1.36) 1.36) surge of uncontrolled BP risk (p<0.001).
