Key result
Emerging genetic discoveries in hypertension show promise for eventual translation into clinical practice.
Key points are not available for this paper at this time.
Although it has long been appreciated that there is a genetic component to hypertension, it is only recently that specific genes are being identified. This progress is part of a general advancement of our understanding of common, genetically complex human diseases. This understanding will eventually affect clinical practice.
