Abstract
The prevalence of cardiometabolic diseases (CMDs) is increasing rapidly across Africa. Here, the authors investigate autozygosity in CMD-associated traits in over 10,000 sub-Saharan African individuals, showing these traits are influenced by sex-specific inbreeding depression and environmental interactions.
