While his findings reveal the associations between hundreds of common genetic variants and hypertension, with the formers impact on the latter varying on a per-gene basis, this review highlights the unlikelihood of ongoing and future genetic variant research discovering a novel drug or therapeutic pathway, thereby limiting the clinical relevance of the field Continue reading
