Family Blood Pressure Program - HyperGEN

This study is ongoing, but not recruiting participants.

Sponsored by:	National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI)
Information provided by:	National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI)
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:	NCT00005267

Purpose

To map and identify the major genetic determinants of hypertension and to study possible interactions between genetic and non-genetic factors in defined populations. HyperGEN initially consisted of a nine grant network, which in turn is part of an NHLBI initiative, the Family Blood Pressure Program (FBPP) consisting of four networks.
