Gender, a significant factor in the cross talk between genes, environment, and health.

Gender medicine - 1 Jan 2007

Ordovas Jose M

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Although men and women share most genetic information, they have significantly different disease susceptibilities that go well beyond the expected gender-specific diseases. Sex influences the risk of nearly all common diseases that affect both men and women, including atherosclerosis and diabetes and their preceding risk factors (eg, hyperlipidemia, insulin resistance, and obesity). OBJECTIVE: The...
