TCEANC and Hypertension: In this study, we also identified four new hypertension-associated variants in three genes, LOC729251, L3MBTL4, and TCEANC. Distribution of SNP rs403814 in L3MBTL4 was significantly different between hypertensive participants and controls in the three stages and in the meta-analysis (Pmeta = 6.128 × 10−9, OR = 1.15, 95% CI = 1.07–1.23).
