Primordial prevention of cardiovascular disease through applied genetics.

Preventive medicine - 1 Dec 1999

Williams R R, Hopkins P N, Stephenson S, Wu L, Hunt S C

Abstract excerpt

Primordial prevention might be considered prevention of the development of disease at its earliest stages or early intervention on risk factors to eliminate increased risk in the first place. In this review we consider how knowledge of genetic causes of early cardiovascular disease can lead to directed screening and better treatment of high risk individuals. While gene therapy would be the most "primordial"...
