We found three unreported associations with dilated cardiomyopathy, represented by the missense variant p.Val77Ala in CAND2 (MAF = 32.7%, OR = 0.82, P = 3.9 × 10−5), rs35006907[A] near ZNF572 (MAF = 35.8%, OR = 0.82, P = 7.0 × 10−5), and rs10838681[A] upstream of NR1H3 (MAF = 31.8%, OR = 1.19, P = 3.1 × 10−4). Here, CAND2 is linked to dilated cardiomyopathy.
