Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Biochemical liver function tests are widely used in the clinic and are some of the most frequently used tests in screening for diseases in older age groups. The aim of the present study was to estimate the relative importance of genetic and environmental factors to variations in these tests among the elderly. METHODS: We conducted a survey among Danish twins, 73-102 years of age, identified in the...
