Ratios of volatiles relative to refractory elements (e.

Article Synopsis
  • The HERMES consortium is focused on understanding the genomic and molecular factors that contribute to heart failure by analyzing data from a large number of studies worldwide.
  • It includes 51 studies from 11 countries, gathering data from over 68,000 heart failure cases and nearly 950,000 controls, with broad demographic representation and long follow-up periods.
  • The main goals are to identify genetic risk factors for heart failure, explore causal pathways, and create tools to help stratify patients and predict risks based on their genetic information.
