Why the study?
Does migration affect the genetic and environmental variance components of diastolic blood pressure in Greek families?
Does migration affect the genetic and environmental variance components of diastolic blood pressure in Greek families?
Familial aggregation of diastolic blood pressure is primarily driven by genetic factors independent of environment, while environmental factors explain increased blood pressure variance in migrant males.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Environmental factors may increase DBP variance in migrant males; supports predominant genetic component independent of migration but leaves open causal inference.
Hopper et al. (1992) studied this question.
