Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Atherosclerosis is a systemic disease that underlies clinical cardiovascular disease. The radiographic finding of abdominal aortic calcific deposits is an indicator of the presence of aortic atherosclerosis and an independent predictor of cardiovascular disease events. Little is known about the heritability of aortic calcification. METHODS AND RESULTS: Original Framingham Heart Study cohort...
