Population study reveals high heritability of cardiovascular traits in Brazilians, indicating shared genetic architectures with other global cohorts.
Heritability estimates for cardiovascular traits in the Brazilian population are high and not significantly different from other studied worldwide populations. Mapping efforts to identify genetic loci associated with variability of these traits are warranted.
