Abstract excerpt
Several environmental risk factors of cardiovascular disease are well established, but genetic risk alleles contributing to the disease in the general population are hotly debated. New strategies focusing on polymorphism discovery in candidate disease genes followed by tests of association to genes across the genome offer a pioneering approach to identifying risk alleles. Several hundred candidate genes for...
