Comparison of Heritability of Cystatin C‐ and Creatinine‐Based Estimates of Kidney Function and Their Relation to Heritability of Cardiovascular Disease

BACKGROUND: Decreased renal function is an established risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Causal mechanisms between estimates of renal function and CVD are intricate and investigation of the relative importance of genetic and environmental factors for the variability of these phenotypes c...
