摘要: AIMS Few investigations have been conducted to identify genetic determinants of common, polygenetic forms heart failure (HF), and only a limited number these associations validated by multiple groups. METHODS AND RESULTS We performed case-control study further investigate the potential impact 14 previously reported candidate genes on risk HF specific sub-types. also an exploratory genome-wide study. included 799 patients with 1529 controls. After adjusting for age, sex, ancestry, we found that C allele rs2234962 in BAG3 was associated decreased idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (odds ratio 0.42, 95% confidence interval 0.25-0.68, P = 0.0005), consistent previous report. No association other primary variants or found. CONCLUSIONS Our findings provide independent replication between common coding variant (rs2234962) cardiomyopathy.
