Abstract excerpt

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Growing evidence suggests that the traits comprising the metabolic syndrome have a genetic basis. However, studies of genetic contributions to the syndrome are sparse. Against this background, we sought to estimate the heritability of the metabolic syndrome and its component traits. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We investigated 803 subjects from 89 Caribbean-Hispanic families who have enrolled to date...
