Association of JAG1 gene polymorphism with systemic blood pressure in patients with obstructive sleep apnea: a prospective cohort study.
CONCLUSION: This is the first replication study of the SNPs recently linked to arterial hypertension in general population by genome-wide association studies. Our findings suggest that JAG1 genotype is related to blood pressure control in OSA: G allele was associated with higher morning and evening SBP and DBP.
