Abstract
Summary of the research findings
Despite epidemiological evidence associating gallstone disease (GSD) with cardiovascular disease (CVD), a dilemma remains on the role of cholecystectomy in modifying the risk of CVD. We aimed to characterize the phenotypic and genetic relationships between GSD and two CVD events - stroke and coronary artery disease (CAD).
43,639 European ancestry gall stone disease cases, 73,652 European ancestry stroke cases, 1,741,606 European ancestry controls
