Genetic factors for overweight and CAD.

Herz - 1 May 2006

Brönner Günter, Erdmann Jeanette, Mayer Björn, Hinney Anke, Hebebrand Johannes

Abstract excerpt

Obesity is a growing clinical problem reaching epidemic proportions in developed and developing countries. It is associated with several comorbidities including cardiovascular diseases. There is strong evidence for the association of excess weight and established metabolic risk factors for coronary artery disease (CAD) such as hyperlipidemia, high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes. In addition, obesity may...
