Family studies: their role in the evaluation of genetic cardiovascular risk factors.

Clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine - 1 Nov 2002

Mansour-Chemaly Marianne, Haddy Nadia, Siest Gérard, Visvikis Sophie

Abstract excerpt

Early epidemiological studies showed that genetic factors contribute to the risk of cardiovascular disease. Genetic epidemiological studies based upon families can be used to investigate familial trait aggregation, to localize genes implicated in cardiovascular diseases in the human genome, and to establish the role of environmental factors. Family studies can be also used to identify the physiological role of...
