Abstract excerpt
Coronary heart disease is the result of life-long processes. Previous genetic linkage analyses of lipid and lipoprotein variables that can be measured throughout life have focused on a single measure at one point in time. Genome-wide linkage analyses were performed in the present study to identify loci influencing the long-term levels and trends of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC) and low-density...
