Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are complex diseases where many environmental and genetic factors are involved. Although the genetic aetiology of the CVD has been extensively investigated the last two decades, alternative approaches are needed in order to keep advancing in the pathophysiology of CVD. In this thesis, we propose an integrative approach to discover new genetic associations potentially involved in CVD. We chose previous GWAS hits and we centred our efforts in studying the pleiotropic and gene-gender interaction effects. Finally, we focused on the implementation of personalized genome-based therapy of the results obtained. New pleiotropic effects were discovered in the IL-6R and ABO genes relating them with different inflammatory ...
