Genetic and phenotypic architecture of human myocardial trabeculation - Nature Cardiovascular Research The inner surface of the heart has a meshwork of muscles called trabeculae. McGurk et al. report the genetic regulation of these complex structures across common and rare variants, revealing pathways ...

Exciting first bluesky post! We estimated trabecular complexity in 50,000 UK Biobank participants to identify influencing genetic, clinical, and lifestyle factors. Trabeculation progresses with cardiac diseases and changes can occur early in pathogenesis.
