Genetic determinants of risk factors for cardiovascular disease in a population from rural Brazil.

Human biology - 1 Apr 2007

Abstract excerpt

We investigate the heritability of and pleiotropic relationships among triglycerides and cholesterol lipoproteins that have long been considered traditional risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Quantitative lipid and lipoprotein phenotypes were determined for a cross-sectional sample of a community in Jequitinhonha valley in northern Minas Gerais state, Brazil. The sample consisted primarily of subsistence...
