Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to evaluate and distinguish between environmental and genetic effects for death from coronary heart disease (CHD) as well as to determine whether the importance of genetic influences is changing with age. DESIGN: A cohort study with a follow-up time of 36 years. SUBJECTS: The cohort drawn for the present study includes 20 966 twins born in Sweden between 1886 and 1925...
