Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Only a subset of individuals infected with Trypanosoma cruzi develop chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy (CCC). Familial aggregation of CCC in areas of endemicity indicates that susceptibility may be genetic, which may be a plausible explanation for why only one-third of T. cruzi-infected i...
