Among the causal candidates, 7 (ABO, FLT4, PTHLH, MIF, IL15RA, B3GAT3, CCDC126) were positively associated with HF, whereas 12 (BAG3, TDGF1, FUT3, FSTL1, ALDH3A1, GLCE, CDON, FCGR2A, RGMB, AMH, ST3GAL6, APOA5) were negatively associated with the risk of HF. This evidence concerns the gene ALDH3A1 and hydrops fetalis.
