Introduction Low maximal oxygen uptake (VO 2max) is a strong and independent risk factor for all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. For other CVD risk factors, numerous genetic association studies have been performed, revealing promising risk markers and new therapeutic targets. However, large genomic association studies on VO 2max are still lacking, despite the fact that VO 2max has a large genetic component. Methods We performed a genetic association study on 123.545 single-nucleotide …
