A UGT1A1 variant is associated with serum total bilirubin levels, which are causal for hypertension in African-ancestry individuals
Abstract Serum bilirubin is associated with several clinical outcomes, including hypertension, type 2 diabetes (T2D), and drug metabolism. Here, we describe findings from our genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of serum (TBIL) using a generalized linear mixed model in West Africans (n = 1127), wi...
