Genomic medicine, gene polymorphisms, and human biological diversity.

Abstract excerpt

There is considerable variation in the prevalence of comorbid conditions such as malnutrition, inflammation, cardiovascular disease, and bone disease among end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients on maintenance hemodialysis. Besides traditional risk factors, these differences also arise from variability in genetic factors and gene-environment interactions. Recent publication of the human genome sequence through...
