Genetic study links components of the autonomous nervous system to heart-rate profile during exercise

Response of the heart rate (HR) to exercise is associated with cardiac fitness and risk of cardiac death. Here, in a genome-wide association study, Verweij et al. identify 23 loci for HR increase during exercise or HR recovery, and highlight pleiotropy with blood pressure by polygenic risk score ana...
