ABSTRACT High blood pressure (BP) represents a major cause of life‐threatening cardiovascular conditions. GWAS have identified >2000 BP‐associated signals. BP‐GWAS usually analyze each BP trait individually. However, multi‐trait GWAS may yield novel loci and improve polygenic risk scores (PRS) prediction. We explored whether multi‐trait BP‐GWAS can: (i)

The best approach to account for medication use in GWAS is unclear. In this study, we
