Question: Do common variants on 9p21.3 are associated with brain arteriovenous malformations with accompanying arterial aneurysms?
Answer: Common 9p21.3 variants showed similar effect sizes for association with BAVM as previously reported for aneurysmal disease. The association with BAVM appears to be explained by known associations with aneurysms, suggesting that BAVM-associated aneurysms share similar vascular pathology mechanisms with other aneurysm types.
yes
