Dataset for the thesis entitled "On the causes and consequences of hypertension"

The data
provided and/or described here facilitate the replication of the findings
detailed in the thesis titled “On the causes and consequences of hypertension”.
The Hong Kong Department of Health Elderly Health Service Cohort was used to
validate and recalibrate a prediction model for all-cause mortality (Chapter
3), and assessment of selection bias (Chapter 4). Publicly available genetic
metadata were obtained to investigate the role of blood pressure on
cardiovascular and longevity (Chapter 5), as well as cancer (Chapter 6), and
also the role of pubertal timing on blood pressure (Chapter 7), growth and sex
hormones (Chapter 8), and finally the men’s phenome in the UK Biobank (Chapter
9).
